Kinobody Program & Reverse Pyramid Training
The Kinobody program uses RPT (reverse pyramid training) as a way to increase strength and increase muscle mass.
If you’re used to regular weightlifting workouts, then you’re most likely following the Standard Pyramid of Training.
This is where you start lifting light with high reps and on the next sets increase the weight while you decrease the number of reps.
The problems with this style of training is that by the time you get to the last set you’re already fatigued and you’ve yet to lift your heaviest.
Reverse Pyramid Training
With Reverse Pyramid Training you do the opposite.
Of course, you always want to warm up with some light weight for a couple sets just to get your blood flowing.
You take advantage of the fact that you’re fresh and have more strength on your first set, so this is when you do your heavy set for about 4 – 6 repetitions.
This will allow you to lift heavy, increase your strength, and your muscle mass.
On the 2nd set you decrease the weight by 10% and increase the number of reps.
For the 2nd set try to get 6 – 8 repetitions.
On the 3rd set you decrease the weight by 10% again and increase the number of reps.
For the 3rd set you want to try to get 8 – 10 repetitions.
Training this way has allowed to get stronger dramatically even at 40 years of age.
This is one of the ways the Kinobody program works so well to get you stronger on key lifts and get you results much faster than other programs.
Combine reverse pyramid training, with rest pause training, and intermittent fasting and not only will you get bigger and stronger, but you’ll get very lean as well.
