Is Training To Failure Necessary?
Welcome back to the series going over all things related to muscle-building. In the first article we kicked off this muscle-building series by discussing many of the elements that factor into muscle growth and more specifically the importance of volume. In the second article we discussed the importance of progressive overload for continual improvement. In this article we will be looking at training to failure and determining how [...]
Progressive Overload For Continual Improvement
When we kicked off this muscle-building series we talked about how when volume is held equal rep ranges didn’t make a difference in terms of actual hypertrophy but that lower rep ranges led to greater strength gains. We talked a lot about the importance of volume when it comes to building muscle size and strength and I mentioned that while volume is important that doesn’t mean we can just [...]

Supplements I take – The Colin DeWaay Stack

How often have you heard someone at your gym ask the big guy what supplements they take, as if those are the reason he is huge and you're still [...]
A True Inspiration
Today was not the greatest day at the gym. I haven't talked a lot about my chest injury but it's been on again off again for some time now. It seems like it's better again, but I guess we'll have to see. So today I did my first chest workout in a while again and it was a struggle. It's rough when your former 12 rep max is [...]

Before I get into the details of this let me tell you a little something about this guy. Jon brings it, and brings it hard!
