Chapter 1 | The Development Of Muscle Mass And What It Will Take

”The sports training process as a whole is a phenomenon of exceptional complexity.” ~ Mell C Siff We obviously need to train in order to get more muscle mass, that’s a given. But training is not the only factor we need to consider before we begin this journey to more lean tissue. In this manual we will not only lay out an advanced program, but in this text, I would like to bring to light some other factors that WILL be extremely important to not only get the most out of this text, but all future training and health needs. I would say that for most of you following this, that a few of the factors we are going to cover in the next few pages need to be addressed before muscle mass can be a viable goal.
