Tips To Stimulate Muscle Growth

By Jennifer King

If you're unlucky enough to be a hard gainer, and you have trouble packing on quality muscle mass then you already know that it isn't an overnight thing. Fundamentally, gaining more muscle is to do everything you're doing now, but do it bigger.

This means you have to eat bigger, and you have to start looking at how you're training, and train harder. If you fail to do these two things you won't put on any weight and you won't get any stronger. Your muscles won't get any bigger if you don't eat more food, and you won't get bigger muscles if you don't lift more when you're training.

Lifting weights is the tops of the list for important things to do to build muscle. The next most important thing is your diet. Without a proper diet all your weight training efforts will be a waste of time. The amount of rest you give yourself between workouts is also important. If you don't give your muscles enough time to repair themselves then your progress will go backwards.

Working out how many calories you're consuming each day is the best place to start when you want to eat to pack on muscle. Once you have worked this out you'll know how much more you have to eat to add a substantial amount that is going to allow you to grow. Adding an extra 500 calories a day will be a good start to begin encouraging your muscle to grow.

Although this may sound like a lot of extra food it could be a meal that consists of 30 grams of protein, 40 grams of carbs and 25 grams of healthy fat. A meal containing this many calories isn't hard to add to your daily meals. When you start training more effectively your body will need this extra consumption for the extra calories your muscles will be burning.

Once you've what you're going to eat every day you need to get serious about your weight training. This means you go to the gym to lift weights, and not to socialize. Most gym users use their time in the gym to talk with their friends. They lift a few weights, have a chat, then go home and wonder why they're not growing.

You need to keep a record of what you're doing in the gym every week, so you need to write everything down. You need to progresses with your training , and you can only do this if you know what you did last time your trained. If your training doesn't progress then neither will your muscle growth. Your muscles have no reason the get bigger if you don't get stronger, and if you don't lift more than you did the week before you won't get stronger.

When you write everything down you'll now exactly what's working for you and what isn't. If your progress is going backwards you'll know where to adjust your training.

If you truly want to dramatically change your body, to learn how to build muscle mass fast, then understand that your goals need the power of all of the above working together so you can achieve them. - 17274
