The vast majority of male gym users have asked for tips on how to build muscle at some stage or another. For some reason it's rare to see a man that actually achieves the physique he wants and today we're going to reveal why so many of us get lost in the shuffle.
The next time you're in your local gym take a look around the free weights section. You'll see a variety of characters which populate the majority of gyms around the world. By that, of course, we mean guys who enjoy throwing the weights around but don't seem to be getting anywhere with their results. After today you'll never become part of that crowd.
What's more, all of today's steps are completely free.
The first thing we'd like to bring to your attention is your diet. It's great having the dream of building your body into a head-turning mountain of muscle and it's good to have the dedication to hit the gym very often, but if you neglect your diet you will not see a positive return on your efforts.
Sadly, most men (and women, for that matter) do exactly that. One of the top excuses for this being that working out your diet can be confusing. This is simply not true, it's far easier to set up a solid, goal orientated eating plan. The confusion arises because of the amount of hype and quick fix solutions people see on a daily basis, telling them they need to buy certain plans or products in order to get results.
Establishing your daily calorie figure is very straightforward. The key to successful dieting is avoiding the bad habit of calorie counting, we'll show you how to set a daily ballpark figure and you should use it as a loose target. To do this, simply take your desired body weight in pounds and multiply the number by fifteen.
That daily calorie target is a very achievable and solid ball park figure.
If your diet is solid you'll be amazed at the improvement in your results. However, try combining that with the following tips as well for even further improvements.
When we think about getting enough sleep we usually presume it could impact our sessions and hold us back in the gym through feeling tired. Believe it or not this isn't the main reason you should try to get your eight hours. When you're in a deep sleep your body releases more growth hormone, allowing you to produce even better results as your muscles recover from the last punishing session. Don't miss this by cutting short your sleep.
We want to take a moment or two to discuss the importance, or rather than un-importance, of bodybuilding supplements. The only supplements you really 'need' to add to your nutrition plan are whey protein and creatine monohydrate. You can go crazy with supplements but the majority of people get lost in the hype and expect their latest product to produce miracle results, which it won't. The key word to remember is supplement, it's there to support your diet plan not replace it.
Whey protein and creatine have by far the most research to back up their scientific advantages so it's definitely worthwhile adding them to your diet, but try to keep your supplements to a minimum.
The rules in today's video and article will provide you with the foundation of how to build muscle more effectively. Many people get lost in the gym, now you're on the right track!
