Everyone has different goal towards their physique. Tons wish to lose fat and gain muscle, a few wants to gain weight with minimal amount of body fat (BF) and most wants to look/ feel good. Most of the training below provide different kind of result towards the body. Before I begin, resistant training may help an individual to :
- Strengthen the skeletal system
- Improve bone density
- Boost metabolism
- Controlled cholesterol level
- Controlled and reduce body fat
- Aid diabetes
- Prevention of hearth failure
The list below are most common use in current era.
1. Circuit Training

FST-7 (Fascia Stretch Training 7)3. Giant Set Training
4. GVT (German Volume Training)5. HIT (High Intensity Training)6. HST (Hypertrophy Specific Training)7.
Tri-phase Training
CIRCUIT TRAININGA method of physical training whereby an individual moves from one exercise to another, usually in a series of different stations or pieces of equipment. Usually the program is accomplish by counting of repetition per piece of equipment to another or accomplish by completing in provided time per piece of equipment to another. Basically this method is being used in commercial gym by personal trainer towards their over weight clients.
FST-7It stands for Fascia Stretch Training and the seven refers to 7 sets performed usually as the final exercise of a target body part. Basically you train that body part on any given day heavy as you normally would keeping the rep range between 8-12, but the last exercise you perform the seven sets to finish off that particular muscle, with minimal rest in between to get the best pump possible.
Currently I am under go with this method of training. It is not really necessary to complete 7 sets for the final set. It actually depends on how an individual feel for it. If I manage to do 7 than I will or else maybe 5 or 6. Good for gaining muscle especially on the lagging area.
GIANT SET TRAININGI wouldn't suggest to whom that just begin weights training within 6 month period. This is because the resistance of the weights will be repeatedly hitting at the same muscle for 3 to 5 kind of exercise. Due to this also, they have to have a large area to place the exercise equipment or to have the gym for their own. This training method is best use to deplete glycogen in the muscle. Certain bodybuilder uses this method in the final week of their competition preparation, including me.
GVTIs able to complete 10set of 10reps. This method is best use combination with high calorie food also for those who wish to gain in weight. I haven't try this approach yet but I will give it a try for my future off season. Chest/arm/back and etc all are separated to many part. If so by doing 1 workout only can hit all those area, it doesn't seems logic to me.
HITThis training has been practice since 70's up to date. By pyramid the weight up while decreasing the repetition, this able to increase size and strength for individual for a period of time. Controlling the weight on the negative/ eccentric is the secret to this training.
HSTTraining heavy for the same muscle twice a week not actually for me. This training also is to keep the muscle in a state of adaptation with a little deconditioning as possible taking place between workout sessions. Best to gain size and strength.
TRI-PHASE TRAININGTri-phase Training is a 3-phase workout program designed to add overall mass to
your body. Each phase is three weeks long and targets a specific training variable. In addition, Triphase Training contains workouts created specifically to bring up lagging muscle groups, which are to be used after completing the 9-week Triphase Program with hypercaloric diet. Highly recommended for gaining mass.
Many convince that the method of training they are following are the best and reliable. As for me it depends how you connect your mind with the muscle. It is not how much you able to carry and not feeling the contraction on the specific muscle but how much you feel the contraction on your muscle that should look at. Again I stress, diet is what makes you achieve in the art of gaining and losing. As for me, our body/ muscle able to adept with workouts so why not try to change the training once in a while to shock it. That's why there is a period my goal is towards strength and prior to competition it is more for muscle definition.
