EVOLUTION OF MODERN TRAINING

Bodybuilders have continued to get bigger harder and more cut over the decades and they have figured out over time by trial and error, better ways of training and more effective methods of dieting as bodybuilding techniques have become more widely known and adopted.

In old days bodybuilders still use to train largely like weightlifters and tended to work the whole body three times a week. Bodybuilding training is much more sophisticated than that today. Bodybuilders train each body part more intensely , hit all the muscles from different angles , use a wider variety of exercises and equipment and are much more aware of the need to train hard in relatively short bursts and allow the body to rest , recuperate and grow. In old days the only goal was to get big but today bodybuilders try to achieve quality creating a physique with spectacular shape and symmetry with every muscle defined and separated.

As bodybuilders developed new techniques the tools used to shape their bodies also changed. In the early sixties the introduction of exercise machines made a greater variety of exercises possible. 

Bodybuilders have also learned the right way of diet and nutrition. Lean muscularity was not always the important factor in bodybuilding , pure muscle mass was considered more important but bodybuilders have now realized the bulk produced by the body fat had no place in quality physique . 

There is no longer much difference in the equipment available in a hardcore bodybuilding gym or a health spa . People have learned that muscle is muscle and you need the same range of equipment whether you are training to stay fit and healthy or to get big.
