Elite lifters often work up to a heavy lift and leave the gym before their strength begins to diminish. Why? Because they understand that strength gains come from training while they are strong. Long workouts often lead to a weakened state. Training in a weakened state can sabotage the benefits of dedicated training efforts.
If you want to get stronger, work out as long as you are at full strength, and stop working out when you are not at full strength. This is the basis of The Peak Strength Principle; train while your strength is at a peak, not while you are weak. If you minimize strength loss during a workout, recovery between workouts becomes easy. This is especially important for natural lifters and natural bodybuilders as they do not have the advantage of anabolic pharmaceuticals to enhance recovery. Making it easy to recover from workouts a huge key for consistent strength gains. This is the power of the Peak Strength Principle.
The information in The Peak Strength Principle will help you to know how to train enough without training too much. In addition, the book will explain:
•The precise level of training intensity needed for consistent results.
•Four key factors that must be to be optimized to unlock your potential for strength gains.
•How to find an effective training frequency that compliments peak strength training
•Why popular training methods that work so good suddenly quit working
•How you can avoid training methods that lead to a sticking point by utilizing progression strategies that work and keep working
The Peak Strength Principle is not fixed plan of sets and reps. Instead, it is a flexible training principle that combines four key training factors. These training factors are easy to apply to any type of training that is built upon the need to gain strength. Whether your focus is on bodybuilding, powerlifting, or general strength training, you will benefit when you learn how to utilize the concepts presented in The Peak Strength Principle.
