But the training methods for hypertrophy aren't really going to be any different. Youth and steroids just mean better recovery. As a general rule what works for the young or on steroids also works for naturals and older people. They provide the framework, and you fill it out.
Natural bodybuilding books how to#
With self learning from the recommended books, comes taking someones methods and finding out how to make them work for you. Most all of the information in those books is based on what generally works for the author and their clients. So was encouraging you to not let those be a block for you so you can achieve whatever it is you want to achieve in your bodybuilding goals. So, my response was based primarily on this comment:Īre they not written with the understanding that people can handle the volume described therein because they are on steroids or are under 30 years old?īecause I don't know anything about you, I was assuming you were placing mental blocks due to age, and not using steroids. Lol well, I wasn't sure sure what was the purpose of your response. Ultimately though, if you've found that lower volume, lower intensity, higher frequency, and TUT are working for you, then keep on keeping on.īut I don't think that you read very closely. I'd recommend not viewing your age and drug-free lifestyle as a limitation, but believing they are limitations will actually make them limitations. You expect compounds and heavy lifting break you, so they do. Make sure your diet and recovery is on point, and maybe work with a personal trainer for a few months to get some coaching on your lifts. I'd recommend reviewing this post in regards to the routines. If you find you're body breaking down in your 30's you may just be trying to go too hard too fast.
But the same principles apply whether you're 20 and on steroids or 50+ and lifetime natural (see Jeff Alberts here as an example). It's really more for information gathering and learning than it is to follow a strict routine for bodybuilding. It's not so much a guide to bodybuilding, but what it's labelled, an Encyclopedia.Īs for the other books they are just the methodologies, thoughts and ideas of the authors themselves. Arnold's is pretty robust in covering history, routines of the greats, etc. They're all books on bodybuilding/weight training. Tell us your next competition so we can put you here!
