Welcome to tips on Resistance Training for Enhanced Muscular Development.

Important Tips:

This post is about how to develop increased musculature thru weight lifting that will go beyond your expectations especially if your efforts have not met your expectations in spite of ambitious training.
Ask your self this question next time you go to the gym, how many people around you have trained rigorously for years are injured or have had few gains to show for their effort.

What You Need To Know First:

Before I share any special secrets on how to greatly enhance your physical strength and muscularity.
The most important issue before embarking on any weight lifting adventure remains that you must understand the importance of biomechanics also referred to as form in order to become injury resistant.

Know Your Bones Learn Proper Bio-Mechanics To Avoid Injury:

Many gym veterans who look the part lift compromised with assorted injuries because they don't understand the finer points of biomechanics due to the unfortunate fact that nowhere did they ever learn the dynamics of movment to protect their joints. Working without properly applied form is like jogging with ones running shoes knotted together week after week doggedly falling banged and bruised until the suffering exceeds the will to continue.
In other words paying club dues to effectively ruin all joints only to end up unnecessarily injured and upon getting older ending up a knot of arthritis.

Some Consideration About Fitness Clubs Vs Home Equipment:

A club with sound equipment remains superior to no club at all and is recommended over home gyms.
