When it comes to training, there are few things that lead to a more productive session than having like-minded people to train with. When you can get in the gym with a group of people versus training solo, you will definitely fast track your results. Working with a group will guarantee that you don't skip reps, sets, or miss a session altogether because there is built in accountability.
So if you are currently training 4 times per week, try to grab one or two people to train with once or twice per week minimum. Chances are that there is a guy or gal that works out at your gym that is on the same schedule as you and would love to have a training partner.
Another bonus to having a training partner is the innate sense of competition that is brought out of you. For me personally I usually am able to get 1-2 sessions in per week with a couple of other guys. These sessions are 3x more productive than my solo sessions. This week in particular is college spring break week so I have had the pleasure of training with Steve Byrne, Kevin Plant, My brother Jeff, cousin Brian, Brett, Hog, Matt Bren. When you can get 6-8 guys together to train, people will push themselves beyond where they thought their strength and mental toughness barriers were.
So this week, take a workout from the blog, grab a coworker, friend, sibling, or homeless guy off the street (you may have to pay his guest fee, and be a good shit and grab him a post workout drink) and hit the gym. I promise you will love the team atmosphere.
(If you don't think "rack 'em Willie wants to train with you, you are dead wrong. video not safe for work due to language.)
Go get it,
