Today I am going to show you how to progress in muscle
  building. This is one of the most important aspects of
 building muscle, which many people ignore or overlook.
The biggest mistake many people make is doing the same
   thing over and over again without making any real
progress. For the record; I am not talking about changing
       the exercises you do to shake things up a bit.
If you want to build muscle, you have to be lifting more
weight or doing more work with the same weight every
              week (or every other week).
If you are not doing this all you are doing is maintaining
          your current size and strength levels.
Therefore you must be lifting more or doing more volume
    each week. This can become troublesome for several
 reasons. The main reasons are that it is hard to constantly
lift more weight or reps each week. There will come a time
  when this becomes very hard and almost impossible. If it
     was easy; we would all be lifting huge weights and
                  sporting massive guns.
Therefore it is great to have some progression techniques
  that force you to lift more each week. Today I will be
    showing you the fantastic Rest Pause Technique.
Rest Pause Technique
The Rest Pause Technique is a fairly simple method to use
  for progression, but a very effective one. In a nutshell -
  you basically perform a set of reps as normal, only you
take small 10 second rest after you hit failure before trying
                  to lift some more reps.
So for example if you were doing bench presses you would
 do say 8 reps and rack the weight, rest for 10 seconds, try
for another few reps and get a few more reps done. That is
   the rest pause technique. It is a great muscle building
   method because you are forcing your body to do more
    reps, rather than doing one straight set and finishing.
   There are many different ways of using the rest pause
  technique, but I will show you a great way to use it with
                    your current program.
How To Progress In Muscle Building With The Rest Pause
                     Technique
You can use this rest pause training in 3 week blocks. On
week 1 you do your workout as normal, without using the
 rest pause method. On week 2 - perform all your sets as
normal until the last set of each exercise. When you finish
   your last set rack the weight and rest for 10 seconds
    before doing another mini-set with the rest pause
method. For week 3 - perform all your sets as normal until
   the last set of each exercise. On the last set finish as
normal and rack the weight, rest 10 seconds then do a few
 more reps. Rest for another 10 seconds and try for a few
   extra reps so that you do another 2 extra mini-sets.
In summary: For week 1 you do your workout as normal;
 Week 2 you do one extra mini-set using the rest pause;
 Week 3 you do two extra mini-sets using the rest pause
method. On week 4 you can increase the weight and start
                     over again.
Can you now see the potential using this technique? You
  are forcing your body to more reps every week and
        making real progress at the same time!
