Training Techniques

Here are some training techniques to consider when writing your programs and advancing as a PT.

Rest Pause
Perform as many reps as you can just before hitting failure by 1-2 reps. Rest for 10-20 seconds and do as many good reps as you can with the same weight.

Drop Set
Perform as many reps as you can just before hitting failure by 1-2 reps. Reduce the weight by up to 50% and then do as many reps as possible with the new weight.

Pre-Exhaust
Do an isolation exercise for a muscle you are about to train next in a compound exercise. So for instance a cable fly isolating the pecs, then once working sets and reps are completed, move on to the compound exercise chest press.

Post-Exhaust
The opposite of the pre-exhaust, where the compound is completed before the isolation.

Pyramid
When you change the weight and reps of each working set for an exercise. Here are three variations examples

Standard pyramid, as reps go down weights go up - 1x 12 reps, 1x 10 reps, 1x 8 reps, 1x 10 reps, 1x 12 reps.
Ascending pyramid, as reps go down weights go up - 1x 12 reps, 1x 10 reps, 1x 8 reps, 1x 6 reps, 1x 4 reps.
Descending pyramid, as reps go down weights go up - 1x 4 reps, 1x 6 reps, 1x 8 reps, 1x 10 reps, 1x 12 reps.

Superset
When you complete two exercises back to back with no rest.

Tri-set
When you complete three exercises back to back with no rest.

Giant-set
When you complete four exercises back to back with no rest.

Negative/Eccentric Training
Where focus is put on the negative or eccentric part of a movement (main muscle being worked is being lengthened). So this might be, you take a four second count or TEMPO for this part of the movement.

Forced Reps
Perform as many reps as you can hitting failure, then complete another 1-2 reps with assistance without taking a rest. This will require assistance from a training partner or personal trainer.
