Bodybuilding Tips, How to Build Muscle Quickly
There is information going around both on and offline about how to build up muscle rapidly. As a personal trainer, I can recommend some little known facts that will help you in building muscle. These tips will help you to get going on your quest to build up your muscle mass.
I often overhear people saying that you should train each muscle group once a week only. While this may give good results for intense bodybuilders, this is not true for many people.
Of course you should not be overtraining, however like most things in life, one will not get better at something by just practicing once a week, and this is also true to some extent with bodybuilding as well.
You should be training muscle groups no less than twice a week. Essentially, you should push your body through spurts of near overtraining and then ease off into periods of under training. This is beneficial when there is much strain for the body to manage and other times when they body has more time to recuperate and build stamina for another push. By using this method, you will avoid hitting training plateaus.
Limit your workout sessions to 45 minutes. If you think this time is too short, then your exercise program is too long, or you do not workout intensely enough. 45 minutes is ample time if you concentrate on intensity and focus on the task at hand.
If your workout session lasts longer than 45 minutes then testosterone levels will drop drastically because there will be more production of cortisol which makes the body eat muscle tissue and store fat. This is exactly the opposite of what we want.
You need to cycle your training. after sometime your muscle will not be stimulated into growth by the same routines because the body will have adapted to it all it can already. Vary your routine before your gains start to diminish.
Additionally, you should try not to change your workout program too frequently either. Doing this can confuse your body?s muscles and it will stop progressing into a nice groove.
You will not see large gains if you do not do the right exercises. The timeless and most effective muscle building exercises are the multi-joint exercises that are known as compound exercises.
The best multi-joint exercises are dead lifts, bench presses, rows, squats, pull-ups, shoulder presses and any exercise that moves your whole body through the air, but not just moving individual appendages. If you practice these exercises along with a few of their variations and incorporate a proper muscle building diet then you will easily stimulate muscle mass growth.
By taking all of the above advice into consideration, and combining both a proper muscle building diet and exercise you will be huge in no time! - 17273
