But, unlike picking the best desktop or laptop for gaming, upgrading the processing speed and muscle-mind connection to those laggy muscles doesn\u2019t require you to dig into your pockets or look at financing options. It only takes thinking outside the box.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The box I\u2019m referring to is traditional bodybuilding splits and the modern ways of training one muscle group a week, and avoiding training any muscle group without giving it five days to recover first.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No, if you want to build up a muscle that you have trouble feeling, <\/em>you have to do things a little differently. There are several techniques to do this, but let\u2019s focus on one of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s right, lifting when you\u2019re sore. For a long time now, I have dedicated my routine to doing it with arms because biceps were a weak point for me and I always had trouble feeling <\/em>the muscle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After a while of training them with the sort of frequency guys gave me flack for, I started to truly understand which exercises I could really connect on and which ones I\u2019d likely never grow from. Likely, you\u2019ve felt that day (or days) of tenderness in the muscle group you had hit the day previously. If you pressed your finger into your biceps or your chest, it wasn\u2019t excruciating (don\u2019t confuse this with injury), but you definitely felt its presence. It\u2019s exhilarating, surely, and you can\u2019t wait to hit them again next week. The problem is that if you have a training split that looks like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You won\u2019t be tender by the time you return to those muscles later. It\u2019s the difference between going out with someone and getting to know them, then not seeing them again for another month instead of setting up a date for a time in the reasonably<\/strong> near future. Due to all life\u2019s distractions, the two of you have become at least slightly unfamiliar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Think of your laggy muscle like the new muscle-mind connection and the other muscle groups like life\u2019s distractions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019ve lost that tenderness you felt the day after that great date and now you\u2019re starting back at square one (or two, whatever). Brings to mind a classic song: \u201cYou\u2019ve lost that loving feeling, whoa, that lovin feeling. You\u2019ve lost that lovin\u2019 feeling, now it\u2019s gone…gone…gone.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019ve Lost That Loving Feeling<\/em>, by The Righteous Brothers, <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n But, say instead of waiting 4-7 days before training biceps again, you hit them the very next day with some lighter movements, solely focusing on the range of motion, angles, and tempos of each rep, you\u2019re improving your familiarity with it. And just like building relationships with people of interest, improving the familiarity improves the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And for a bonus, try adding in<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember, a muscle-mind connection takes time. You might not see the results or muscle growth right away, but as I\u2019ve stated before, this type of training is a Side Quest to gain the XP necessary to beat the game (or lay waste to your friends in PvP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bodybuilding is not just lifting weights and hoping for the best. That will yield size, but not symmetry. We want bodies that look like well thought out, inspired works of art sketched by Alex Ross or Steve Ditko themselves.
