Follow These Basic Bodybuilding Workout Rules and Get Big Muscles
There are a huge amount of muscle building programs out there. Gaining serious muscle will involve using methods that will get you there as quickly as possible.
Most often, the rule of thumb is, "More is better." In other words, practice more, and you'll get better at what you do with better results. However, with gaining muscle, most of us need to be working out less, not more.
Each time you pick a magazine up all you see is bodybuilders who will tell you that to get muscles like them you have to train nearly everyday of the week. When we see there huge muscles we think if we follow their advice, we will get the same results.
However, this isn't true. It may be true, for example, that bodybuilders have an extra something we don't so that they don't have to as much down time as the rest of us do after they train. For most of us, we need to use different training methods to achieve results.
If you want to gain muscle the right way, AND you don't want to hurt yourself, you can't overtrain. In fact, you probably should cut back on your training if you're trying to mimic what those "bodybuilder" type guys do.
Try this, you should see some pretty impressive muscle gain in about eight weeks if you just follow two simple rules.
1. First, watch the amount of weight you are lifting. It should be challenging but not exhausting to the point that you're going to hurt yourself. In addition, do exercises that are going to hit several larger muscle groups at once. Squats are good for this, as one example.
2. Don't train more than a couple of times a week. Believe me this is a far better way for you to gain muscle. Intense training does not only hit your muscles, but it also hits your entire nervous system. Your nervous system may not have recovered, even if your muscles have.
If your nervous system has not recovered, giving it further punishment through training, means it will be hard to cope. Without the recovery you can't build up any muscle. When you've finished your training session have 3 days break. 2 days if you want. Just see how your body feels during this time.
If you try this for a short time and go back to the old way of training because you think the above doesn't work, think again. If you've been using other workout programs and haven't found them effective enough, try something different. Maybe it's time to look at things in a different way. - 17274
