[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 229912, member: 43589"] [B]The 7 Laws of Exercise Science[/B] In order for an exercise training program to be of any use, it must not violate and or the laws of exercise science. Check you workout and see if it violates any of these rules. If it does you need to change it quickly. 1. [B]The Law of Individual Differences[/B] We are all individually different, from bones, to where muscles connect on the bone and individual fiber types. These differences need to be taken into consideration when planning and exercise program. One size fits all programs never work. 2. [B]The Overcompensation Principle[/B] The body reacts to stress by overcompensating so we continually have to apply a new stress to force the body out of homeostasis and adapt again. 3. [B]The Overload Principle[/B] In order for your body to overcompensate, you must [URL='https://breakingmuscle.com/why-adding-weight-to-the-bar-is-the-whole-damned-point/']load[/URL] the body with a stress greater than the amount previously encountered. 4. [B]The Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands (SAID) Principle[/B] You must tax your body in the same way that you want to improve. If you are involved in a sport for instance that is very explosive then you must train explosively. 5.[B] The Use/Disuse Principle and Law of Reversibility[/B] We must continuously train the skill[URL='https://breakingmuscle.com/the-4-stages-of-acquiring-skill-sets/'] [/URL]or we will lose that capacity. But because we have laid a neurological foundation that makes it easier to recover the function after we have lost it. 6. [B]The Specificity Principle[/B] If we want to get better at a particular exercise, we must do that exercise. If you want to have a heavy bench press then you have do do heavy bench presses. 7. [B]The General Adaption Syndrome[/B] A term that describes the physiological changes the body automatically goes through when it responds to stress. [INDENT]1.
