The time span that will determine extreme muscle growth success or failure is shorter than you can imagine. In fact, your entire margin of success in the gym can ultimately be reduced to just a short time span of 60 seconds.

The benefits that will be achieved on the last 1-2 reps of all of your sets are the reason that you work out. Since muscles respond to stress, the stressful reps that trigger your body's extreme muscle growth mechanisms are the ones that take place when the body is on the brink of muscular failure.

You're only doing the first few reps in your set so you can get to the final two reps. You want to overload the muscles on reps 5 and 6 to get extreme muscle growth, so your beginning reps obviously need to be performed. The longer you can push yourself to battle the weights during this small time frame at the end of each set, the greater results you will achieve.

Any of you who have read my articles know that I'm a big advocate of training to muscular failure. The best way to stimulate your body's adaptive response in order to achieve extreme muscle growth is to train your muscles to the ...
... point where they cannot move that weight by another inch.

The closer and closer you get to muscular failure, the bigger the gains that your body will experience.

The time period in which this happens is mere seconds. If you drop the weights 5-6 seconds earlier than the next guy (the margin is probably even smaller than this), you'll be significantly sacrificing your muscle growth and get nowhere near extreme muscle growth.

So, why are 60-seconds all that matter? Add it up-if you perform 10 total all-out sets per workout with 6 seconds between success/failure per set, you are looking at 60 seconds of time per workout when you can either go for it with full effort and achieve extreme muscle growth or end up getting so-so results.

Your extreme muscle growth success depends entirely on the short, precise moments at the very end of each set and how much effort you're willing to put in at that time. When you commit to training to all-out muscular failure, you will truly experience extreme muscle growth.

If you find yourself dropping the weight even 3 seconds before muscular failure, you are missing out on major gains. When you drop the weight 8 seconds before muscular failure, you are reducing your muscle growth even further.

If we multiply our 60-second figure by my recommended number of 3 workouts per week, this means that your bodybuilding success in the gym will literally be measured by how you choose to handle one short 3-minute-long period per week.

Have you ever broken it down like this before? You need to train hard and with full intensity if you want to experience extreme muscle growth. Even if the weight feels heavy and your muscles burn with discomfort, push through until true muscular failure is achieved.

You don't want to compromise your gains by quitting to soon. If you keep your mind on this at the gym, you'll experience better results and promote extreme muscle growth.
