Weight Lifting Breaks Are A MUST If You Want To Make Progress ALL The Time
by Joshua Tapp
Weight
lifting breaks MUST occur to give your body the time it
needs to recover from a long period of workouts.
Usually, a weight lifting program should have planned breaks after anywhere from 6 to 12
weeks.
For example, after completing 3 tough workouts a week for 10 weeks, a
program recommends you take a break from lifting weights for 7-10 days.
In this example, this is a good weight lifting program that recognizes
that one's body cannot take the pounding for greater than 10 weeks.
Breaks from weight lifting will ensure that you can continue building
muscle even with lighter weights after you come off an extended break
from lifting.
If you've been lifting weights for a while, you'll know
that it's sometimes very hard to get any stronger on certain exercises.
Well, weight lifting breaks can help you to start back at a lower
weight and then blow right past your previous best several weeks later.
Works every time!!!
You Need To Learn More About Your Body
If your weight lifting program doesn't recognize
that your body needs an extended break at some point in time, you will
either need to get a new program such as one of ours or you'll need to add in your own planned breaks.
You can plan a break any time you want, but the most important factor
in taking a break is you and how well you can judge your body's needs.
You must know your body, and you must take a weightlifting break earlier than a
planned break if needed. For example, I learned that I usually needed a
break after around 7 weeks on the workout programs I have used in the
past even though the plan says to take a break after 8 weeks.
I don't have to worry about that any more as I ONLY use the WLC System now.
The WLC Syste, gives you the flexibility in one of the final weeks to
make that decision, provides you with guidelines to help you make the
decision, and tapers your workload down so that overtraining never sets
in...
The WLC System Is Designed To Help You Last Longer...
Now that I use the WLC System I can last much longer on each weight lifting cycle
without overtraining. The WLC System is designed to keep overtraining
away.
WLC provides more time for progression and more results.
Continuous progression over the weeks, months, and years leads to real
results that other programs can't compare to...
The WLC System uses planned breaks on purpose so that your body
becomes unaccustomed to the weight loads you were using before you took
the weight lifting break. This deconditioning of your body will allow
your muscles to become unaccustomed to large loads of weight.
When you go back to lifting weights again after your weightlifting break, your
muscles will grow with a smaller amount of weight. They will grow
because you are applying a load that they are not accustomed to.
You'll
eventually lift more than you've ever lifted before for each and every rep
range on WLC. And along with these strength gains, you'll
build muscle too!!!
Playing Catch Up...
With WLC, your muscles get to catch up usually on
the first week of each rep range due to the decreased load in weight.
They must work harder though because of the increase in volume from 1
set to 2 sets. So, your muscles are given a break in the amount of
weight that must be lifted, but the total work done is going to be
greater.
When they finally get used to the increased work and decreased weight
load, we hit them hard with heavier weights than ever before, but we
decrease the total amount of work. The true growth begins when we start
increasing the weight.
Every major muscle group throughout your body never becomes accustomed
to the patterns on WLC and will never catch up until you go on your
weight lifting break. You will build muscle throughout the WLC System based workouts
because your muscles never become accustomed to the work and load.
Length Of Weight Lifting Breaks
Usually weight lifting breaks last anywhere from
around a week to two weeks. The more cumulative
fatigue on your body, the longer the planned break must be in
order for your body to fully recover.
If you go too long without a
break while working your body hard, you will overtrain and your body
will end up shutting down on you if you continue to overtrain. If you
go this far, you will need an even longer break than 14 days. You'll
have no choice but to take a break.
You will learn your body after a few cycles if you are a beginner. Most
intermediate to advanced weight lifters know when to take a weightlifting break. You
will learn. And it may be the hard way.
I learned the hard way, but the
WLC System will help you learn your body much better than other
programs that simply push you to your limit each and every workout. If
you've used other weight lifting programs before, you'll be absolutely
amazed at the progress you'll make on the WLC System.
Weight lifting breaks on the WLC System take place during the WLC
rest period. Breaks from weight training last anywhere from 9 to 14 days.
You MUST take a break from weightlifting before starting any of our programs. You will get maximum
results by taking a break before starting the WLC System.

Amazing Results by Chris...
"We went to dinner last night with our friends and they
noticed how good I was looking..."
"Anyway, right away in January I starting going to the gym and lifting weights. I loved it right from the
beginning. There is something inside me that just comes alive - tough to describe..."
"Finally, by pure luck I came across your program in
like February/March when doing a Google search on "best
weightlifting programs". It passed my common sense
test with flying colors.
Add to that what an amazing
and helpful guy you are and it's been a recipe for
success. I'm almost 40 now and on just one beginner
program of WLC, I am the strongest, fittest and healthiest I
have EVER been. I look in the mirror and I see a
difference.
It's definitely NOT what I want to
eventually look at but it 10X better than at the peak of my
ultramarathon training."
"... So I tell my friends at dinner last night that the
best part is I am really NEVER hungry... that I eat 6 times a
day.... that I went from no pull-ups to 7 in 2.5
months... that my energy levels are through the roof... that
sleep issues are no longer a problem... and I NEVER even
think to tell them how much I weigh because it's really not
my focus. AMAZING!!!"
"... To be reading this program and KNOW the
answers are right there is so nice. Nice is actually a
terrible word. REFRESHING, HOPEFUL, PROMISING.
These still do not do it justice. I am not a writer so
it's difficult for me to put it into words.
Anyway, I know this got long-winded but I wanted to
tell you my story. I wish I had taken some starting
pictures back in March but I will when I start my next phase
in June. Thanks again Josh. Really man, I can't
thank you enough for pouring your heart into this program."
