The Five Universal Principles of Strength Training 
 

Strength training effectively means training smarter. Here are five things to keep in mind with your strength training regiment. Clients and athletes who adhere to them are very successful and, more importantly, enjoy their strength program.

 

1.Specificity
Choose movements and select a number of reps and sets that are specific to what you are trying to achieve.
For example: A client who has a specific muscle imbalance has to do exercises that address the underlying issue. If, say, they are an avid cyclist who has over-developed quadriceps muscles at the expense of hamstring length and strength, add stiff legged deadlifts into the strength program (start double leg than move to single leg as a progression).
