Training Methods to Bring Up Weak Bodyparts

If you've got a weak bodypart or you have a certain aspect of a bodypart that you have a really hard time developing, I've got a great technique for you...very simple and very effective.

I've been using it with great success for quite awhile now and it's a simple two-step process.

Step 1.

Find an exercise that works that target muscle or target area of that muscle effectively.

Step 2.

Do a 15-minute block of Time-Volume Training with that exercise three times a week.

It's just that simple.

Now, if you're not familiar with Time-Volume Training, it's a GREAT technique of mine for putting a lot of very focused training volume onto a specific muscle/exercise without overly fatiguing the nervous system. It's very straightforward to execute and you can do it with literally ANY exercise.

And I have to say, when you're dealing with weak bodyparts and trouble spots, you NEED to put a lot of training volume onto them to really make a difference.

 

So back to Step 1 - Finding an exercise that works the target muscle or target area/aspect of the muscle...

This is really the key to making this work. I've put together a list of some common trouble spots and exercises of mine that work them effectively.
