A good back up plan comes with tiers of reserves, each ensuring success without exhausting working resources. Training maximum output without hoarding reserves for a progressive approach will kill a strength cycle on the spot and stifle consistent progress. Upward mobility is paramount to building strength. In the day and age of one hit wonders, it's difficult to hold back but maximizing peak performance should be reserved for when peak performance is needed. Strength and/or technique is forged through countless reps and hours of practice. Demonstrable strength is supported by tireless tinkering, heavy thought, and relentless training. By focusing on the surface, one misses everything that goes on behind the scenes. Don't be fooled by one hit wonders or lured by the hackneyed approach that comes with instant gratification. In the end, the one who labors the most through his or her own expression will wield the weapons that endure these dark ages of fitness.
