Training for Strength

I have been speaking with a lot of dedicated gym goers recently who have all had problems understanding a very basic concept. As a result I have decided to put pen to paper (or should I say fingers to keys) and arrange this article. Now before I go any further I would just like to say that the techniques you use while training are not wrong or right per se. Techniques are designed to help you hit specific goals. Logically thinking we would take some time and consider the best technique we have to hit the desired outcome, however most athletes only understand the same way to train, which is how everyone else trains, and mindlessly follows that activity. This is not necessarily the best path for you.
The method that most people follow is ‘bodybuilding’. The reason for this is simply that it is the most widely talked about and documented form of weightlifting. Most magazines and books are aimed at building mass and chiseling a six-pack. So what is wrong with this?
