Muscle Building – 5 Tips That Will Get You Bigger Faster


Muscle Building – 5 Tips That Will Get You Bigger Faster

Why are we so fascinated with building muscle? Maybe it’s because as kids we loved our super heroes. Let’s face it the most popular super heroes we grew up with; Superman, Batman, Hulk…what did they all have in common? Well for a start besides some special super natural powers, they all had big muscles and were stronger than the average human being. So what does this mean? The inner child in all of us wants to be a super hero that is why we call them super heroes, we want to be like them, we even idolize them. Obviously we cannot develop super powers and fly like Superman so the closest next best thing is to build muscle and get stronger. That is why I’ve developed a 5 tip guide to becoming a super hero!

1.Strength

      The stronger you get the more muscle you will have. This means in the gym you need to focus on constantly getting stronger, that doesn’t mean stack on the weights where youare risking injury and form. It means to do enough weights where you are hitting the 6-8 repetitions but with a sweat and proper technique. Every time you find it easier in hitting that number, add more weight to constantly push yourself and get yourself out of that comfort zone.

2.Free Weights

     Yes we’ve all done it and I’m not against it, butyou shouldn’t be using fancy machines for your main body parts and exercises like your bench presses, barbell curls, etc. Its good sometimes to use machines to keep the bodyguessing and make things interesting but I would focus on free weights most of the time.

3.Compound Exercises

      Compound exercise are exercises that build muscle and strength. Although isolation exercises are important too, compound exercises are the ones which are going to build the most muscle and strength. Compound exercises include; Bench press, pull-ups, chin ups, squats, dead lifts, dips. By incorporating at least 1 or 2 compound exercises per body part every week you are sure to build muscle and strength fast.

4.Legs

      I see it all the time, guys spending hours in thegym training their upper body and never train their legs. These are the same guys that never wear shorts in summer, with a fear of looking un-proportioned or being laughed at for having “chicken legs”. The fact of the matter is like anything in the real world a strong base is required, like a tree which needs strong roots and base in order to survive. We need strong legs, to not only look good in shorts but for a stronger and bigger upper body. Your legs are half your body and by doing squats and dead lifts you are not only working out your whole body but helping to release more growth hormone in your whole body, which means a bigger and stronger body overall.

5. Split body parts

         Do not try to work out your whole body in one workout. Split body parts i.e. chest and shoulders, biceps and triceps. If you try training every body part in one session, you will not only be in the gym for too long, but you will not have enough energy to work out muscles which by the end of the session will already be fatigued. So by splitting muscle groups you will get the maximum out of each work out and body part to build muscle fast!…

7 Reasons Why You’re Not Building Muscle

1. Underestimating your calorie consumption. Calorie consumption is the solution to most hardgainers problems in building muscle. Yousimply cannot assume that you’re eating enough calories by casually keeping a mental note of what you’ve eaten throughout the day,you have to record down on pen and paper what foods you’ve consumed. 2. Not eating the right ratio of carbohydrates, protein and fats. The optimum ratio of carbs, protein and fats is 50%, 30% and 20% respectively. This ratio will provide the optimum level for synthesizing protein into muscle mass. 3. Not drinking enough water. Water is even more important than food in that it’s essentialfor many bodily functions. Many hardgainers underestimate the importance of drinking enough water before, during and after trainingsessions. One way to overcome this problem is to bring a water bottle everytime you train 4. Poor workout routine. Choosing the right workout routine is vital for building muscle. Picking exe...

The 7 Steps You Should Take to Guarantee Muscle Growth

        Before you actually start bodybuilding you should decide what you want to do. A few years ago I made the mistake of just jumping in and working out with no end in mind. I wound up wasting my time, even though there were some gains they were not enough for me and the funny thing is I did not even know what it was I wanted.            I heard a saying once, it went like this: “The road to somewhere goes to a town called nowhere”. To you and me this means that if we go to the gym without knowing what it is that we want to get out of it, we wont get anywhere.            There is a technique that will guarantee that you will build more muscle on your body if youstick to it, so here it is (I actually can’t guarantee it because 99% of the results depend on YOU). 1. Decide      Decide what you want to get, be specific, for example “I want to gain 20 lbs of lean muscle mass” (9 kgs ac...
