Body Building Tips For Begginers, How To Start A Weight Training Program

Body Building Tips For Begginers, How To Start A Weight Training Program

by Ricardo d Argence

Are your friends and family noticing measurable changes in your physique? Have you added at least a couple of inches or more to all of your major muscle groups? Are you moving poundages on your squat, deadlift, bench press, row (and every other major compound exercise) that all feel substantially heavy for your body?

If you didn't easily answer "yes" to all of the questions I just outlined above, then worrying about the smaller details of your physique is quite simply a waste of time at this point.

If you're still in your bodybuilding "youth" and don't already have a considerable amount of muscle mass to show for your efforts, I would strongly suggest taking these types of questions and eliminating them from your mind until you do.

Why? It's because diverting your focus onto these small and trivial issues will only serve to distract you from the most important and immediate task at hand. And what is the most important and immediate task a hand? It is to pack as much raw muscle size and strength onto your frame as humanly possible!

Don't worry about matching your biceps to your triceps, and forget about matching your chest to your back. It's simply not worth worrying about these issues until later on, after you've significantly thickened up your entire body.

If you're still a beginner and have been training consistently for less than a year, then stop obsessing over the details. Instead, place all of your focus on the most basic and obvious issues at hand. Get yourself onto a sensible, rational weight training schedule and stick to it religiously.

Write down every single workout that you perform and place every ounce of energy you can muster on adding as much weight to the bar on a consistent basis as you possibly can. Grind out all of the biggest, most difficult compound exercises and blast through those discomfort zones with passion and intensity.

Get yourself into the kitchen and pack in at least 5 or 6 properly balanced muscle building meals every day of the week, every week of the month and every month of the year.

Drink your water, get your rest and take your supplements whenever necessary. In other words: PAY YOUR DUES FIRST!

Focusing on the fundamentals first and the details later is the most efficient path possible.

You must bring this mentality into your bodybuilding program. You don't want to attempt to fine-tune and balance your physique until you have a considerable muscle foundation to work with. You can't play that awesome guitar solo before you know basic chords, after all.

Building muscle is not rocket-science, but it is a task that requires consistent willpower and determination. And until you've been "in the trenches" and have earned yourself an impressive and muscular body. Stop over-analyzing. Get into the gym and train!
