All This Performance Talk
I often read other authors articles or read posts on internet forums about how everyone knocks bodybuilding training and how if your clients trained like athletes then they'd look lean and muscular.
I think that's a bunch of bunk.
Here's why. When other trainers whom I greatly respect like Robert Dos Remedios and Jason Ferrugia speak of their clients training for "performance", they're speaking of getting people better every workout. That's what performance is, getting better and out performing yourself.
I know everyone wants to go with the norm and excepted rules but just by using full body routines or upper lower split doesn't mean you are training for "performance".
Performance training is raising your own personal bar higher and higher.
How is that any different then training with bodypart splits and trying to get more reps or more weight per workout?
It really isn't any different. It's not which method that you're using to train but what you put into your training.
