Eight Ways to Build Muscle
Carbo loading - The greatest of all the muscle building tips is to gain as much healthy weight as you possibly can. New muscles can only be built when your body has a surplus of calories even after you have burnt calories during a good work-out. The extra calories will be used to repair damaged tissue and build new muscle. Your calorie intake target should be 20 times your body weight.
Intake of Fat - Muscle growth and stimulation is highly dependent on hormones. The production of hormones in the body has been directly linked to the amount of fat introduced into your system. Research indicates that testosterone production in the body and fat are proven to be directly related. However, implementing the right fat is crucial. Saturated fats are bad for the body and should be avoided as they are linked to heart disease and stroke. The correct fats are EFA's or Essential Fatty Acids. These particular fats are not produced by the human body and must be supplied by food or supplement drinks. The most common EFA's are omega 3 and 6.
Detoxing - Detoxing is an essential part of any diet and exercise regime including your muscle building one. Free radical damage should be prevented or at least minimized by detoxing regularly with anti-oxidants which include Vitamin A, C, E, Selenium, Glutathione as well as a multi-vitamin. Are you able to commit yourself to the above mentioned muscle building tips? Body building requires loads of commitment. Below are more tips that you should adhere to.
H2O - Everyone should drink at least 8 glasses of water a day or 32 ounces in order to keep the body hydrated and this rule is especially true for building muscle. Mild, natural and pure, water is the most efficient way to detoxify and rehydrate your bodys organs, muscles and tissue after an intense workout. The increase of protein intake can build up excess amounts of toxins in the body, resulting in damage to the kidneys, liver and bloodstream. A lack of water intake can also bring on serious and permanent damage to your kidneys.
Rest - Proper rest after exercise is the best-kept secret on your muscle building journey. Muscles are not built during exercise; they are built during the resting phase. Carbo load, train regularly and hard. Lastly allow your body to have sufficient rest.
Persistence - As they say, "Rome wasn't built in a day" and neither will your muscle building goals be achieved that quickly. Hard work, dedication and commitment will help lead you down the path to your muscle building goal.
Right equipment - Exercising the different muscular groups with the correct equipment is absolutely essential for muscle building. The equipment should have variable resistance settings, specifically free-weight. Heavy weights should be used. However the weight should still be appropriate by giving you the ability to do only eight reps. Low reps and heavy weights stimulate muscle growth substantially because of the strain on the muscle- and nerve system. Technique is just as important as the right equipment. You will just waste your time if you work out for hours on the right equipment but employ the wrong techniques. By employing wrong techniques in combination with the heavy weights, you are at risk of sustaining serious and long-term injuries.
Sectioning Your Workout - Dividing your workout amongst specific muscle groups on certain days is a great way to not only impede the inevitable boredom exercise brings, but it also allows each muscle group to rest and recover, therefore building more muscle at a higher rate. - 17273
