How To Build Muscle - The Facts Explained
As a Fitness Instructor I know that most people who use the gym are lost. For guys, the main problem is they want to know how to build muscle but they don't know where to ask. Today we're going to reveal to you the top proven methods for packing on some lean muscle mass in no time.
Let us begin by assuring you it isn't as hard as if sounds.
Too many people are hasty in the gym and, in a bid for quick results, they overlook the most important factors in favor of spending their hard earned cash on unnecessary aids which don't do anything for them in terms of results.
You're about to discover the five rules which almost every guy at your local gym would kill to know about, so use them wisely.
* You need a muscle building diet.
* Get the basics of supplements down before you get lost.
* Focus your reps around your hypertrophy zone.
* Rest days need to take priority.
* Make sure you get enough sleep each night.
The 5 simple rules above reveal the proven facts on how to take your present physique and develop it into a leaner, stronger version. There are further tips to add in at a later date, which we will show you in the future, but for now the original five are the best to get started with as they set the tone for a quality lifestyle change.
Next we're going to look at some of the steps in a little more depth to clear up any potential mix-ups or confusion because , in the gym, confusion is a results killer.
Most people assume that to get bigger you can just eat whatever you want. You should only do that if you're not bothered what type of size you're adding. If you want to stay lean as you grow, which most guys do, you need to set up a few basic diet rules to begin with. Multiply your target body weight, in pounds, by fifteen and this will give you a ball park figure to aim for each day.
The second area where folks find it easy to get themselves lost is supplements. It's easy to see why, too, with every company out there telling potential customers that their products are better than everybody else's. In truth you only really need to start off with the basics. The foundation of your nutrition should always come from your diet, hence the word 'supplement'. Use whey protein and creatine monohydrate supplements, everything else is unnecessary expenditure.
To write out your workout routine you need to remember two simple things. Firstly, big compound movements like bench press and squat are far more effective at building lean muscle mass than smaller isolation exercises like bicep curls. Secondly, your reps should fall into the hypertrophy zone and avoid the endurance zone. This means using a weight on every set which causes you to stop after 8-12 reps.
Suddenly you find yourself armed with the knowledge most gym members lack. Before long you'll probably be telling others the principles of how to build muscle effectively. We will publish more articles in future which also look at more principles to use in the gym but for now get a good understanding of the five revealed above.
