Bigger Leaner Stronger Workout Plan
Workout Principles
1. Progressive Tension Overload
Gradually increase the weight you lift over time to continue building strength and muscle.
2. Free Weights and Compound Lifting
Focus on exercises that work multiple muscle groups simultaneously, primarily using free weights.
3. Rest and Recovery
Allow adequate time between workouts for muscle repair and growth.
4. Moderate Cardio
Include some cardio for overall health, but donโt overdo it to avoid interfering with muscle growth.
