Problems With Certain Bodybuilding Courses: Do They Really Want To Help You Gain Muscle?
The biggest problem with certain bodybuilding courses (this is a RAPIDLY growing issue due to inexpensive
Internet advertising) is that their prime intention is not to teach you how to diet and train properly, but rather obtain your contact information so they can
later forward their "amazingly effective", "ground breaking" supplement advertisements right to your mailbox! Just try to purchase
various Internet based bodybuilding programs, and in addition to
experiencing disappointing muscle growth, you'll be plagued with
continuous supplement advertising from the author. In fact, the
author's or company's book is NOT designed to help you in building
muscle mass or losing fat, as the motivation for supplementation
would then disappear. Rather, their bodybuilding routine is simply a
prelude to the true intention -- capitalize on your continued
frustration by claiming that "x" supplement can help "hard gainers"
to enhance testosterone and/or growth hormone, and promise to cure
plateaus. Fortunately, the reason for lackluster progress with certain programs has
absolutely no connection with supplementation, but rather stems
directly from the impotent routine that they are selling you! These individuals
are simply starting their own bodybuilding magazine and disguising
it as a muscle building or fat loss program, so PLEASE BE CAREFUL
WHEN SCANNING INTERNET ADS! These routines have the exact same flaws
as bodybuilding magazines I described earlier -- they wish to
capitalize on your continued confusion with their soon to arrive
supplement advertisement. It is absolutely imperative that you
understand the unscrupulous methods that today's bodybuilding and
fat loss related web sites are using to eventually sell you a new
"testosterone boosting" or "growth hormone replacing" product, while
establishing this "need" by selling you an ineffective, flawed,
sometimes dangerous muscle building routine. It's happening all over
the Internet and in bodybuilding magazine ads, so be warned.
Who Do I Ask For Help With My Specific Bodybuilding Questions?
Another huge problem with popular (and not so popular) bodybuilding
courses is the lack of SUPPORT. After reading the book, who answers
your questions about CHAPTER 4, or helps you to integrate the
program into your schedule and lifestyle? Who do you ask? Well, as
you'll find with many books and courses, you'll need to ask
YOURSELF, because there is no way of contacting the author to
clarify a particular point of contention. No matter how well written
or complete a book or course happens to be, almost everybody will
inevitably have a dilemma which needs to be specifically addressed
by the author. In most books or bodybuilding programs, it is
IMPOSSIBLE to ask a simple question, much less extract a detailed
answer regarding a problem or concern (I suppose that some may offer
personal support for an exorbitant monthly fee or through an
untrained phone clerk who has never lifted weights). As you'll find,
the lack of direct, personal support may encourage you to quit the
program, as you'll have no way of finding the answers to some very
critical concerns. We are all different, and what may be a question
or problem for one may not cross another's mind, which is the very
reason why there is NO "perfect" program -- the ability to elicit
personal support is vital to the success of any training / diet
system.
Step By Step Program For Muscle Gains?
In
addition, throughout my years of digesting bodybuilding material,
NONE HAVE PROVIDED ME WITH A STEP-BY-STEP, COMPLETE TRAINING AND
DIET ROUTINE! All have discussed concepts and suggested various
techniques, but no program has covered EVERY effective diet AND
training rule in SPECIFIC, EASY TO FOLLOW FORMAT, eliminating
guesswork. Without such an outline, more confusion sets in, and ultimately, little progress is made. Guessing will certainly lead to
failure.
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with companies or
individuals charging for items that benefit the bodybuilder --
but the large majority of muscle building materials are either
driven by supplement giants who wish to make millions off of
products that don't provide even a margin of what they promise,
or steroid induced pro bodybuilders who, because of chemical
assistance, don't train or diet like us, and thus can't provide
the proper training and diet program to benefit the drug-free
lifter (plus don't provide personal support for the book they
write). If any of these products lived up to half of what they
claim, I'd gladly pay twice the retail price.
