Best Eight Ways to Build Muscle

By Chris Tan

Loading of carbs - Caloric intake to gain healthy weight is the number one tip used for building muscle. Ensuring you take in a surplus of calories allows your body to have extra power to rebuild damage tissue after an extensive workout as well as build new stronger muscle. The way to achieve this is by making your caloric intake 20 times more than your actual body weight.

Your Fat Intake - Hormones play a major role in the stimulation and growth of muscle. In order to produce hormones, the body must have a certain amount of fat intake. Research has proven that the amount of testosterone in the body is directly linked to the amount of fat supplied. It is very important to know the difference between good fats and bad fats. Saturated fats are unhealthy for the body and have shown to cause the onset of heart disease and stroke. EFAs or Essential Fatty Acids such as omega 3 and 6 are exceptional in producing the stimulation of testosterone for building muscle.

Detoxing - Detoxing is an essential part of any diet and exercise regime including your muscle building one. Free radical damage should be prevented or at least minimized by detoxing regularly with anti-oxidants which include Vitamin A, C, E, Selenium, Glutathione as well as a multi-vitamin. Are you able to commit yourself to the above mentioned muscle building tips? Body building requires loads of commitment. Below are more tips that you should adhere to.

Water - Drink plenty of water, approximately 8 glasses of water per day to ensure your body stays hydrated during hard training sessions. Water is the most natural and mildest way of hydrating your muscles and detoxing your whole body. Increased protein intake will increase metabolic waste which means toxins will build up substantially in your bloodstream, kidneys and liver. A lack of water will have a seriously damaging effect on your kidneys.

Down Time - Everyone needs a proper rest after an intense workout including muscle builders. Many believe that muscle is built during exercise; however this is not the case. It is very important to remember to carbo load, hydrate and get plenty of rest.

Persistence - As they say, "Rome wasn't built in a day" and neither will your muscle building goals be achieved that quickly. Hard work, dedication and commitment will help lead you down the path to your muscle building goal.

Right equipment - Exercising the different muscular groups with the correct equipment is absolutely essential for muscle building. The equipment should have variable resistance settings, specifically free-weight. Heavy weights should be used. However the weight should still be appropriate by giving you the ability to do only eight reps. Low reps and heavy weights stimulate muscle growth substantially because of the strain on the muscle- and nerve system. Technique is just as important as the right equipment. You will just waste your time if you work out for hours on the right equipment but employ the wrong techniques. By employing wrong techniques in combination with the heavy weights, you are at risk of sustaining serious and long-term injuries.

Sections - Putting your workout into specific sections performed on specific days allows the routines to never become boring. In addition, each group is given the opportunity to rest and recover which allows the muscles to grow at a much higher rate. - 17274
