It’s very important to slowly build a fundamental base around each muscle group.
It’s also very important to get hundreds (sometimes thousands) of repetitions on each particular skill set to build muscle memory and improve skill level/strength.
3. Creative Maintenance
Everyone is different and during the course of eating your healthy diet / doing the correct training exercises it’s important to creatively switch up your meals and routines.
