Training Techniques: Training Up Big Muscles (Part 1)

The best way to create the conditions of a highly anabolic environment within the body is to focus on the largest bodily muscles, so pay close attention to training and stimulation. These would include those training exercises like squats, deadlift, and leg-pressing that would in general work on the muscles of the thigh, hip and lower back. This is due to the fact that these areas make up a high percentage of our total muscle mass, so this means that any training stress of any great intensity causing these muscles to grow will do the same on the rest of the body.

The whole physiology and mechanisms throughout our entire body evolves round these larger muscle areas, which in turn depends on the smaller muscles for support leading to these other muscles needing growth and recuperation. One of the most important support muscles is the stomach which has to increase the digestion rate as it is having to deal with the extra nutrients required by our muscles. As this action continues and increases, the stomach is able to adapt as it too becomes stronger and more efficient. The power of training is a mystery at times but when you can really understand how your body works, then you can really appreciate just how amazing it is.

The stress thus placed on your body is obviously greatest from expending enough time and intensity training the largest muscles of your body. This creates a highly anabolic environment in the entire body, due to the need created in the body for extensive growth and repair of muscle tissue, which will translate into greater gains from the training of your smaller muscle groups, since the body works as a whole, and not in separate, isolated parts.

The Importance of Protein and Water... The primary factor for our body to be able to adapt to training stress is to take in sufficient quantities of proteins and carbs. Normally people tend to go high on proteins and low on carbs but everyone is different, so you will just have to experiment a bit and see what works best.

Also as I have mentioned before, water is a vital component in the diet, and you can't really get enough of it when in heavy training and consuming plenty of protein. Not only does it serve the most important purpose of being the most abundant constituent of muscle (muscle cells are 70% water, with the rest being mostly protein), but large amounts of water also helps to flush waste products from your system, and helps avoid stress on the kidneys in this way.
