209: 6 Fitness Secrets To Get Bigger, Leaner And Stronger with Ted Ryce

[smart_track_player url="" ]
Today, I will be teaching you some of the best workout secrets I learned after seventeen years in this fitness industry and training celebrities, CEO’s of multi-million dollar companies and real people like you. There is now an overwhelming amount of information, and it has become increasingly difficult to know what works, what does not work, and what to do instead.

Based on the presentation I gave recently at The 21 Convention, If you want to transform your body and your life, apply these six fitness secrets to getting bigger, leaner and stronger.

  1. Be Consistent

  • #1 Key to getting results with exercise
  • Must show up most weeks of the year
  • You start to detrain after a couple weeks of no exercise

  1. Perfect your technique

  • Technique will determine how good or bad your results are
  • Learn how to do the movement
  • Accentuate The Negatives (take 3-4 sec during the negative)
  • Isometric Pauses (in reps)
  • Eccentric Isometrics
  • Strength 1-3 reps 2-4 sec pause
  • Hypertrophy 4-6 reps 4-7 sec pause

  1. Choose the best exercise for size and strength

  • Squats
  • Deadlift
  • Pulling
  • Pushing
  • Side Leg
  • Core
  • Carry

  1. Increase the frequency of your workout

  • More frequent workouts work better
  • 2-6 days of strength training per week
  • Day & 4-Day splits work best for most people

  • Training doesn’t make you stronger, recovery does
  • Factors that affect recovery: Sleep, Nutrition & Stress Management
