Getting Rid of Muscular Plateau

Getting Rid of Muscular Plateau

The beginning of your weight lifting experience and exercising period in general is one that offers great gains in size and strength but as time passes you will eventually get to a plateau. One of the toughest things in bodybuilding and weight lifting is to surpass this plateau and this is mainly because it usually appears (especially with beginner bodybuilders) due to a monotony in exercising. In over to surpass the plateau you will need variety. One that you can use stands in twenty ones. This is one type of lift that basically breaks the muscle down harder and will have a shock impact, thus breaking the plateau. For instance, let us discuss bicep curls. Usually these are done in series of 8 to 15 repetitions and with one motion of contraction from extension.

In order to do 21s take a free weight and start the motion with your arm in full extension. Bring it up as you usually do but stop at the sternum. You basically do not lift the weight higher than the lower area of the chest. Then just let it down so that your biceps reaches full extension. Do this variety of the lift for 7 repetitions. Now bring that weight to the top contraction spot, which is at the level of your clavicle. Let the weight down normally, just as in the normal bicep curl but stop at the same level as before. This is basically the top half of a full repetition and the variation before was the bottom half of a normal bicep curl. Once again, do 7 repetitions. Just by doing this you will notice that your arms are burning and this is what we want. The hardcore training part that is to follow is doing 7 more repetitions in full range motion. You basically do a regular bicep curl. Now you have done 21 repetitions and you will see that these are quite hard to do. You might need a week or so in order to lay down the exact weights to use in order for the 21s to be done to full effect. Such a training routine will aid you in getting rid of Muscular Plateau and will keep you motivated as results are sure to appear.
