Muscle Mass

Let's face it: Genius lies in simplicity. Training regimens that are too complex compromise results rather quickly. So why do many enthusiasts keep up these ineffective workouts? For starters, the "more is better mentality" is pervasive throughout life, let alone fitness. Plus exotic training regimens with highly sophisticated movements and structures "look better", thereby giving the flawed appearance of seeming more effective. Not to say that these movements don't serve their purpose, but real training is downright hideous and ugly. You want to enjoy yourself; go to a movie. One person again, spoke to me about the "effectiveness" of leg extensions for mass building. I responded in like kind: "What effectiveness?!" Justifiably, unless you have (or had) some sort of one-time and/or recurring back and/or leg injury, you can do leg extensions until the cows come home and go back out again. The squat still holds the leg-building championship of the world, and has been undefeated since its inception. That's right. The leg press as a contender is no match for the heavyweight champion, no matter how many times it fights for the rack. Compound movements that connote multi-joint muscle fiber recruitment to near failure, yield the biggest returns on training investment period. While isolation is very good for targeting stress to specific areas of needed conditioning, growth takes too long to occur even with the best compound training and optimization techniques for training efficiency. The old saying is true: "The good is the enemy of the best." In other words, why do less effective movements, when you can fully focus finite strength and stress reserves on the most effective ones. The amazing irony to most people is that the key to natural muscle mass and strength is not a set of movements; it's a thought process that leads to an effective understanding of how lean mass is built through compound movements and training optimization.
