If you're currently attending the gym there is probably one question on your lips and that is how to build muscle so today we're going to explain it for you. Better still, we're going to teach your the rules to a bigger physique. Stick to these and you will not go wrong.
Better still, we're going to teach you in a way that you can actually understand everything!
As a fitness instructor I know that most trainers like to over-complicate explanations and they often lose their client in a whirlwind of science that they struggle to follow. In my opinion this is bad teaching, because if your client cannot follow your advice it's pointless giving it to them in the first place. So don't worry, you won't get lost here.
When it comes to packing on lean muscle there are a few rules which will keep you in the right direction.
The first step is to correct your sleeping patterns. Many people are shocked to discover that some of the rules to a bigger body don't even revolve around the gym. You can start by ensuring you get at least eight hours rest each night, the release of growth hormone will work wonders for your results.
Once you have corrected your sleeping patterns, understanding the importance of rest for hypertrophy is the next step. Your body won't enjoy hypertrophy (growth) if you do not rest. The best way to think of a day off from training is a growth day, rather than a rest day. This helps to kill the feeling of boredom from taking a day off and reminds you that resting is actually part of your training program.
Next we focus on the need to alter your training schedule to reflect your goals. After all, there is little point in going to the gym and firing out rep after rep if your goal is to get bigger. You need to adapt your training to a program which has your goal in mind. Strength training is performed best when you target your repetitions at an eight-to-twelve rep zone rather than performing hours of lighter weights, which are better suited to those looking to shoot for endurance over size.
Sometimes we all get lost in the wide variety of exercises available to you. Which exercises work best for size? The basics work best. That's right, bench press is still the best chest building exercise, squat is the best leg building exercise, pull ups are the best back building exercise and so on. The movements we trainers call compound exercises are the ones which should be the primary focus of your workout session plan.
The main area where people go wrong, guys in particular, is their diet. That's correct, you need to diet even when you want to get bigger! Drinking a protein shake after your workout is great but you need to watch what you eat outside of the gym, too. You don't want to put fat on, remember, and in order to keep your gains lean you'll need to focus on quality food.
The confusion surrounding how to build muscle can be answered with the simple steps in today's article. No personal trainer or college professor needed. You should now be well on your way to seeing some quality results in the gym!
