How Long is too Long?

Are you spending hours in the gym and still not seeing gains? Then the amount of time in the gym could be the key to a better body. If you spend hours in the gym you are most likely undoing the hard work you do in the first hour. The reason is none of us really have the lifestyle of a bodybuilder or a professional athlete as we work etc. So we can't train, then eat and rest, then train more because of time. If you train for 2 hours then during the second hour your body will go into a catabolic state and start to eat your protein and potentially muscle for fuel. This is because you will have used all your fats and carbohydrate stores up for that specific time and you body will need another energy source. So when you are going over an hour for your workout you are not gaining anything! The best way to protect yourself against this is to make your workout shorter. Do this by keeping your workouts more intense, shortening rest time ( no longer than 90 seconds in between sets) and once you have setup your next exercise get on with your first set straight away. If you try this and still find your 15-20 minutes over the hour mark then I will talk about supplements to help your goals including a special one to protect you against catabolism and increase your strength gains and lean muscle.
