Get A Power Weight Lifting Program Your Body Will Thank You For -- Eventually


by Emmanuel Palmer


Every massive, rock-hard physique out there can owe its thanks to a sound weight lifting program that translates your body's weight to big muscles and solid strength. What are the things one needs to know what makes effective bodybuilding workouts? These workouts are intense, varied and customized to meet the needs of a specific body type.

High-intensity training works well for people who are aiming to gain significant body mass in a relatively short time. Some might prefer to build up on strength and endurance over a period of two to three months which is also fine. You will probably need a hybrid of the two methods; find the best one suited for your body. What is important is you give each session your all.

Usually when somebody strives to pack on muscles, the first instinct is to work out most days for a few weeks. Doing so is actually detrimental to your body's physical development. Give sufficient amount of time for your body to rest so that the tears in the muscle tissues are sufficiently mended and become even stronger. Splitting the weight lifting program into muscle groups and assigning them on certain days is an effective strategy used by many professional bodybuilders and trainers.

A three day split workout will give you something like this: 1st day - chest, arms and stomach 2nd day - back, shoulders and stomach 3rd day - legs If you prefer to spread your workouts into the week you can also try this five day split plan: 1st day - legs 2nd day - shoulders 3rd day - back and stomach 4th day - shoulders and arms 5th day - chest and stomach Concentrate on getting good food and sleep especially the rest days in between training.

There are a number of workout regimens you can do and for the most part, you don't really need to have fancy workout machines to do them. All you need are the basics: several dumbbells of varying weights, cables and a bench. You have these and you can do arm curls (bicep and triceps), dumbbell shrugs, lat pull downs and triceps kickbacks for the muscle groups in the upper body; lunges, calf raises, leg raises and squats for your lower body workout. Crunches are always a reliable abdominal muscles workout but as with the rest of the drills mentioned, modify your program every few weeks so your body remains consistently pushed to higher levels.

When you start training, you will initially use lower weights. As your strength grows, so will the weight loads that you will be lifting-this will ensure that your muscles are consistently challenged, thus develop faster. For bodybuilding objectives, use weights that will enable you to do 7 to 12 repetitions until failure.

Finally, always remember to stretch properly before, during and after workout sessions. Doing so raises your body's temperature and makes you more limber to perform your exercises better.

Bodybuilding workouts only work if it is done faithfully and properly person who will see his program to the end. Be careful while you exercise; but always give it your very best. For the champion in you, less than the best is not an option anyway.
