explosive gains in strength and mass
Published: Fri, 01/20/12
squat, bench press and deadlift.
Each of these three exercises is a compound movement that
simultaneously
recruits multiple muscle groups, making them all critical
to explosive gains in
strength and mass.
Even more important, all three movements push the body's endocrine
system
into overdrive, triggering the release of powerful hormones such
as testosterone
that drive strength gains and muscle growth.
This week I've introduced you to Andy Bolton who understands this concept
better than just
about anybody. He's spent more than 20 years figuring out what
works and
what doesn't and has gotten really good at it. Andy is a 7-time WPC
World Powerlifting Champion, a 2-time WPO Champion and the first man
ever
to pull a 1000 lbs Deadlift in competition.
In fact, he's squatted
an unbelievable 1214 pounds, benched an incredible 755
pounds and
deadlifted more than 1,000 pounds, not once-but twice!
His "Explode" books (one for squats, one for the bench press and one for the deadlift)
outline Andy's techniques for making these critical moves the
foundation of a training
routine that will blast out more size and
strength gains than you ever thought possible.
