Ask ten people at the gym how to build muscle and you'll more than likely hear ten different answers, such is the confusion surrounding this often sought after answer. Much like when people ask how to lose weight you'll get the same type of mass hysteria with nobody really knowing what to do. Today we show you exactly what to do.
Today's post will feature five foundations of building lean, fat free tissue. Whether you're looking to become a man-mountain or just simply improve your physique, let's get to work.
1) Change Your Diet To Gain Size And Strength.
2) Understand Supplements Before Using Them.
3) Tailor Your Workouts.
4) Don't Forget To Rest Up.
5) Sleeping Helps You To Grow.
Some of these tips seem like common sense. One and three, for example. But we're amazed by how many people do these wrong. For instance. the first tip is about simply dieting to build rather than dieting to cut. Most people who are trying to get bigger don't even look after their diet. They have a false idea that in order to gain size you just have a post-workout protein shake and then eat whatever you like for the rest of the time.
You're trying to build a physique the right way, after all, and there are two ways to get bigger we all know that.
Watch the video incorporated into today's post to learn how to sort out your diet. The simple system shown is proven to work.
Rule number two is about knowing your supplements. Too often, people are all too quick to take a product without truly knowing what they're actually putting into their body, what it's supposed to be doing for them or why they even need it.
When it comes to bodybuilding supplements it pays to stick to the proven basics. Creatine and whey protein, for example, are both proven and side effect free. Get the rest of your nutrients from your diet, don't over rely on pills and potions.
Our 3rd step is all about working out. I've lost count of the number of times people have told me they're trying to get bigger and then I see them in the gym doing a routine which is never going to get them there. If you crave size, compound exercises like Squats and Military Presses are your best friend.
Rest is the most overlooked rule. Once you begin enjoying your training you don't want to take a day off, understandably. But the truth is you hinder yourself if you train too much, particularly with this type of long-term goal. Beware of over-training.
The same goes for sleep. Too few of us get anywhere near enough and as a result we unknowingly deprive ourselves of results. Growth hormone is released while you sleep, so this is an important time. Pack in eight hours each night and you have this base covered.
If anybody reading this also read our five step guide on how to lose weight fast and safely you'll notice that it was just as simple and easy to follow. Because despite all the hype and confusion surrounding how to build muscle the basics are still as good as it gets.
