My Muscle Building Tips:
The tips I have put together are some of my best, and will put your best foot forward if you follow them!
Join a gym or club that you are completely happy with.
Proper warmups and preparation is essential. It is very important that you do your warm ups just before you start. Stretching exercises gets your blood in the muscles, ready to work.
Get fully motivated! Find a friend who is motivated enough to train with you. You can remind each other of the plans you make and the training routines. It is more fun to go with a friend than to go all by yourself!
Use a well known guide such as “No Nonsense Muscle Building“. It is essential for getting best results. The right information helps in achieving your goals.
Super setting. Super set with groups that compliment their neighbour muscles, ie triceps & biceps or your chest & back.
Train freeweights, without a machine if possible, for maximum muscle growth. Sitting down on a machine may be easier but you wont get as much muscle growth as with free weights.
Always consume plenty of water while your training. Always be hydrated when training, it helps keep you on track and energized.
During days when you are not working out, get enough of rest for your body to recover from the last training and allow it to grow and rebuild with no stress.
Don’t smoke, or the oxygen in your blood will be insufficient for your muscles to grow in size. You will become healthier too!
Have you ever heard an urban ledgend about drinking beer before and after you train? Carbs help you in your training but alcohol and sugar dont. Only drink a good beverage designed for sports.
Try a variety of reps within your set. As your getting more comfortable with the weights, try to mix and match your techniques. It helps to shape you up better with well sculptured muscles.
Use gloves, straps or similar while lifting with heavier weights. It can help you increase your max lift, and helps keep injuries away in the wrist area. An injury will keep you out for a good length of time, so do everything in your power to stay injury free!
