7 Ways to Build Muscle Fast for the Regular Guy
by David Kamau
Different people have different reasons for working out.For some, simply a toned look will do. Others want to bulkup. Learning Ways to build muscle fast and gain strength ishelpful no matter your fitness goals. Here are some tips tohelp gain muscle quickly:
1. Start with the mind: Visualize both in and out of thegym, the kind of body you want. See yourself as havingalready accomplished your dream body; as though it is real.This is also helpful at times low motivation and despair.
2. Eat like an athlete: No matter what you do, you will notbuild muscle on a hamburger and fries diet; at least notquality muscle. To build muscle you should eatapproximately 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight.However, don't get caught up with calorie and nutrientcounting. Simply eat a well-balanced meal that containsplenty protein about every three hours of your waking hoursand you should bad okay.
3. Divide up your workouts: Beginners can get away withtraining the whole body in one workout. But even beginnersshould split their workout into two; upper body workout oneday and lower body workout the next for better results asthis allows increased intensity. The third day you shouldrest and then begin the cycle again on the fourth. Howeverthis strategy becomes impractical as you progress and youmay have to split your workouts farther. Try a three orfour day split and see what works best and fits yourlifestyle.
4. Get adequate rest: Inexperienced people often skip restdays believing this is the best way to make faster musclegains. Not so. Doing this leads to over-training. This inturn leads to less intensity in your workouts. This canlead to a point of diminishing returns. Also your bodyadapts and builds up strength and muscle while you'reresting.
5. Use progressive resistance: Your muscles grow fromincreased resistance. It is that last workout where youincreased the weights or sets beyond what your muscles hadbeen accustomed to that stimulates growth. Aim atprogressively increasing the weights without losing form.It will seem harder, even impossible, at certain points.This are called training plateaus and everyone includingthat professional bodybuilder or fitness model you admirehas had to deal with them. As with almost anything else,victory comes with perseverance.
6. Resist both ways: You have perhaps seen the gym showoffthat jerks a ton of weight up and then lets it drop andrepeats. Don't do it. You should resist both on both thepositive and the negative motion. In the bench press, forinstance, you should fill the resistance as the weight isgoing up as well as when the weight is coming down.
7. Set realistic goals: It is nice to want to look likeArnold Schwarzenegger at his best. Maybe you have thegenes, but unfortunately most of us simply don't. Even ifyou do, you should not expect to reach that point in a fewmonths. It just won't happen. Set realistic goals based onyour body type, metabolism and lifestyle. Small, reachableprogressive goals will eventually lead to the main goal.
