subject: Mad Scientist Muscle Review - Does It Work? [print this page] Nick Nillson is widely known as an unorthodox muscle builder and trainer, the kind of guy who finds "on the edge" methods of adding muscle mass and strength. Mad Scientist Muscle, his new program for intermediate and advanced trainees, is just another example of his unique style of teaching: well researched and backed up but highly intense.
This program is made for the muscle developer who has seen his gains and growth ground down to a halt. This can be truly frustrating and happens to nearly anyone who tries to gain muscle mass. You can keep on working out but see little or no gains from it.
Mad Scientist Muscle tackles this problem with two distinct workout methods which work together to produce intensive and fast results:
1. Working out near your overtraining zone - This may seem to be counterproductive as overtraining is associated with risk of fatigue, lack of gains, and injury. However, Nick Nillson makes the case (as his research indicates) that training at the edge of the overtraining zone is where you can get the most gains.
In addition, you don't train at that zone for too long. You spend a short time there to get the benefits but not suffer that possible negative effects. After a short while in training in the overtraining 'zone', you reduce your workout load dramatically to allow your body to rest and get
2. Structural training - Nick Nillson teaches that you can't gain more and more muscle mass unless you have a strong foundation to support it. You have to build strong bones, joints, and improve your nervous system and other functions to give your body what it needs to sustain this kind of muscle mass. This is what structural training is.
Combining structural training and working out in the overtraining zone (in a smart way) is what allows you to gain more and more muscle mass fast. This is how you can use this program to achieve faster and bigger growth in strength and muscle tissue.
Nick Nillson's Mad Scientist Muscle is an extensive and well written program. You will need to train hard but the results can be worth it.
