On to the New Rules!

Here they are, in the order in which they appear in the book:

1. The best muscle-building exercises are the ones that use your muscles the way they’re designed to work.
2. Exercises that use lots of muscles in coordinated action are better than those that force muscles to work in isolation.
3. To build size, you must build strength.
4. To build size and strength, you must train hard but less frequently, with plenty of recovery time between workouts.
5. The goal of each workout is to set a record.
6. The weight you lift is a tool to reach your goals; it is not a goal in itself.
7. Don’t “do the machines.”
8. A workout is only as good as the adaptations it produces.
9. There is no magic system of exercises, sets, and reps.
10. Don’t judge a system by the physique of the person promoting it.
11. You’ll get better results working your @ss off on a bad program than you will loafing through a good program.
12. Fast lifting is not more dangerous than slow lifting.
13. A good warm-up doesn’t have to make your [whole] body warm.
14. Stretching is not a warm-up.
15. You don’t need to warm up to stretch.
16. Lifting, by itself, can increase your flexibility.
17. Aerobic fitness is not a matter of life and death.
18. You don’t need to do endurance exercise to burn fat.
19. When you combine serious strength training with serious endurance exercise, your body will probably choose endurance over muscle and strength.
20. If it’s not fun, you’re doing something wrong.
