Day 18:Back & Biceps

Day 18 is here already and we’re back in the gym for a back and biceps workout. By now you know what is expected of you: as the reps go down, the weight needs to go up! The increase in weight applies more stress to the muscle, which causes more damage to the fibers – this is how growth happens. The muscle works to repair this damage by adding more tissue, this can increase both the size and strength of the muscle, especially when you consistently apply new stress to it and feed it for recovery.

Now that you’ve gained some experience, I expect those intensity levels to go up!
