If you're designing a program you're designing it around someone's needs. Beginners, please, focus on compound lifts and don'y solely base your workouts on accessory movements.īut they are the best choice for brand new lifters without a coach or someone to observe their weaknesses and strengths. These big guys already have a strong foundation so they can do this. So to say again, machines and cable allow for very strong focus and contraction of a muscle whilst placing very little stress on your CNS. Yes, they still do the main compound lifts, but unlike a beginner who should primarily use compound lifts, their body can handle the added stress, and really does need it to make the muscles grow. You don't just go through the movement, you really focus on that contraction.īig guys can do this because they've been in the game long enough that they're working a muscle once or twice a week, and their workouts need a variety of stimulus to the muscle (or they're on juice and their body can allow the extra time spent on focusing on individual muscle stimulus). The reason you see bigger guys using machines is because for most bodybuilders, unlike powerlifters, it's not about the weight you move, it's the contraction of the muscle.Ĭables and machines allow you to really concentrate on the full contraction of a muscle, getting in a good squeeze, while at the same time putting very little stress on your CNS, allowing you to not burn out as fast and put more effort into the muscle you're training.
