The behind the idea of gradually increasing the intensity of your workouts is

known as You must impose a demand on your muscles greater than what they are

accustomed to.

adding protein to grow thicker and stronger. At that point, the same resistance

is no longer sufficient to induce further changes, so more resistance must be

added, or longer hold times achieved. In other words, you must progressively add

training stimulus to make continued improvements. You need to distinguish muscle

burn and muscle fatigue from the pain of injury. The burn from muscle fatigue

subsides within 30 seconds or so, whereas injury pain is pronounced, sharp and

continuous. Know your physical limitations and learn to read your body's

I've had good results from the Bullworker doing 7 isotonic reps with an

isometric hold on the last while counting to 14 (to ensure a 7-second hold),

though I do 30 to 50 reps for abdominal exercises, depending on how I feel. I

also get a good pump from doing 100 or more reps per exercise on the Steel Bow,

using the lighter 25 lb. resistance spring. I try using each twice weekly but on

separate days, though when I'm especially tired, pressed for time, or otherwise,

I'll go with the Bullworker.
