My client Denis has been working hard since the 29th of June (picture one). He's put in a good 5 months training whether its been at home because of lockdown or in the gym with me. The second picture was taken today. Denis's goal was to put on lean mass and he's delighted with his progress. Looking forward to working with him in the future. Anyone looking for a personalized gym programme tailored to your needs and goals feel free to drop me a DM.

Just said Iโ€™d talk about rest intervals and there importance to hypertrophy (muscle building) training. I found with my training once a started to knuckle down on those rest times I began to see a lot better results in regards to my muscle mass. Rest intervals are basically the amount of time rested in-between repetitions. Rest intervals can be categorised into three different groups.

Short rest intervals (30 seconds or less), moderate rest intervals (60 โ€“ 90 seconds) and long rest intervals (3 minutes or longer). Short rest intervals generate greater muscle stress which is what is needed for muscle hypertrophy but the down side of this, the athlete doesnโ€™t have enough rest time to for an athlete to regain his/ hers own strength. Therefore this counterbalances of itself which will hinder hypertrophic gains.

Long rest intervals afford the muscle to fully recover its strength in-between stets. Greater rest times means greater reps and greater stets which all sounds good if your trying to build muscle but research suggests greater rest times compromise mechanical stress and a hypertrophic response.

Moderate rest intervals seems to be the satisfactory compromise between short and long rest intervals for maximizing muscle growth. Research shows that the majority of an athletes strength is regained after a minutes rest interval. This means the athlete can perform optimal reps (6 โ€“ 12) with a high enough load without fatiguing in the first couple of sets. The rest time arenโ€™t to long which promotes mechanical stress and hypertrophic gains.

Intensity (load/ amount of weight) for muscle hypertrophy (growth) has shown to have a significant impact on muscle growth. Intensity is normally represented in percentages of a persons 1 repetition max. Intensities equates to the number of repetitions that can be performed with a given weight. Repetitions are divided into three different ranges 1-5 (100% - 87%), 6-12 (85%- 67%) and 15+ reps (65%+). All reps ranges use different energy systems. Higher to moderate loads are proven to be more effective compared to light loads. Schoenfeld (2012) says a load less than approximately 65% of 1RM is not considered sufficient to promote substantial hypertrophy. It is believed 85%- 67% (6-12 reps) loads are optimal loads for muscle hypertrophy.
