What is Targeted Hypertrophy Training (THT)....Well this type of training has you training in cycles to constantly add weight to increase your muscle mass and fitness level. Some things that one might expect from this training is......
  • Unprecedented gains in lean muscle
  • Increased strength and power!
  • The Key exercises for explosive growth
  • Workouts that average 30-40 minutes only
So today I have started my first cycle in the 8-12 rep range. Today was Triceps and the exercise were French press, then Triceps push-down. I started with a few warm with about 40lbs, then did my first working set with 90lbs. The second was 85lbs and the third was 80lbs. There was approximately a 3min rest in between. As for the Triceps press-downs I followed the same working order with one burnout set at the end for 15reps...

At the start my stats are:
I will continue to update my progress and add tips for THT workouts.

The Importance of a Training Journal
Keeping a record of what you do and how you do it is vital to bodybuilding success. I think keeping a journal is one of the best things I've done to help myself consistently improve. If you keep track of what you've done in the past, it will be easier for you to see what works for you. You can then repeat these actions to insure your future success.

"The palest of ink is better than the best memory."
I've never understood why people want to come to the gym time after time, repeating exactly what they've done before. That is not progress, my friend.
In order to improve and make gains, your training must be progressive in some manner. You can make progress 3
1. Do more weight than the previous session
2. Do more reps with the same weight
3. Do more work within a set time frame

If you don't remember exactly what you did in your previous training sessions, how do you expect to exceed it?
I'll be willing to bet if you just finally discipline yourself to start keeping a training journal, you'll increase your gains
You've known for years you should be keeping a training journal and you've told yourself you're gonna do it...but you

Tips on How To Keep a Good Journal
1. Write down the time of day you worked out.
2. Write down how much weight you used in your exercises and the number of reps.
3. Write down how the movements felt, i.e. "50s are too light."
4. Write down how you looked and what was going on in your mind.
5. Write down what you wore or what music you listened to.
6. Write down what you ate and when you ate it.
7. Write down how you looked when you woke up, went to sleep, etc.
8. Write down how much cardio you did.
9. Write down how much you weigh.
10. Write down the other aspects of you life i.e., if you had a good day, a bad day, it was raining, you had a fight with your girlfriend. This will help you attribute outside factors into your performance in the gym.

Let's suppose you had a bad workout on
supplementation were the same as your last training session. If you see an entry in your journal that you got a bad grade on a test that morning, you might find the reason your training sucked that day was that your head wasn't into it. This would stop you from radically changing your training, diet or supplementation based on bad information. A training and dietary journal will be your best friend when assessing progress.
