Want to increase your BENCH PRESS? One of the biggest mistakes people make with strength training is expecting results too quickly. Strength isn’t built in six weeks. It’s built over months and years of consistent training, mastering the basics and gradually asking your body to do more.
When you first start training, progress can be rapid. You may add weight almost every week and feel stronger each session.
Some of these early improvements come from your nervous system becoming better at coordinating the muscles involved in a movement. This is known as intramuscular coordination: your body learns to recruit and organise more of the available muscle fibres, allowing you to produce force more efficiently.
That’s one reason beginners can get stronger quickly, even before they build a significant amount of muscle.
But as you become stronger, progress naturally slows. That doesn’t mean your training has stopped working. It means you’re getting stronger. The strongest people in the gym aren’t usually the ones who found the perfect programme, exercise or supplement. They’re the ones who have trained consistently for years, through both great sessions and difficult periods.
Let us create you the programme and training plan. We'll progress it at the right pace and ensure that you're staying consistent long enough to see what you’re capable of.
