Building muscle is not an easy task.
Many people say it requires years of training and proper nutrition in order to get the build you want, from what I have seen recently this is not true! Genetics also play a role in muscle building, but it does not mean that only a select few can build muscles.
More importantly than the right genes, proper training and diet are the two most important ways to build muscle.
Diet to Build Muscle.
A Sufficient amount of protein is necessary in building muscle. The optimum protein level depends on your body weight; consult your physician or a nutritionist in order to know how much protein you should have. You don’t need to take supplements. You can get protein from lean meat, soy or skim milk and vegetables.
If you want to build muscle quickly though, you may want to do what my other half has – just make sure its right for you!
His personal trainer advised him to eat at least 300 grams of protien daily – he does this with the use of protein shakes and bars and eats a lot of high protein foods like fish, beans and also has egg white shakes (yuk!)
Weight Training to Build Muscle.
In order to build muscle, you must undergo intensive weight training. The amount of weight you have to lift depends on the type of build you desire but the general rules apply to everyone.
• Each set should be composed of 10 to 15 repetitions. Don’t go over 16 reps for each set; if you want to challenge yourself, increase the weight instead.
• In between sets, rest your muscles for about a minute.
• Push yourself. Even if you feel your muscles beginning to tire, you must finish each set. You can try doing 15 reps for one set then dropping 2 reps for the succeeding sets. If you feel that the weight you’re lifting is no longer challenging, you should increase your weight by at least 10 pounds.
• Fitness experts highly recommend weight training for 3 days a week. Rest for 2 days in between training sessions to give enough rest for your body.
You know the best way to accomplish anything is to just do it!
The sooner you start building muscle - the sooner they will stop hiding under our fat!
