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.
Furthermore none of today's tips will cost you a dime.
The first step to building a better body starts in the kitchen at home, not in the gymnasium. Before you head off for your next workout try to set some time to one side and allow yourself to write up an eating plan. By ensuring your nutrition is geared towards building the type of physique you're striving for physically you will make your journey far easier.
For the most part, however, guys tend to skip straight past that part and believe that building a muscular physique can be achieved by eating whatever they want and lifting weights with their friends. One of the main reasons people put this off is because they think it's harder than it actually is.
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.
Firstly we need to address your sleeping pattern. Your body releases growth hormone when you are in a state of deep sleep, which usually occurs 2-4 hours into sleep. Needless to say, growth hormone is as good for building size and strength as it sounds so you don't want to miss out by only getting an hour or two in bed each night.
When you're looking at supplements you may be tempted to make the same mistake hundreds of thousands of other guys make and get caught up in all of the exciting sales packaging and marketing talk you see on the products today. With every supplement claiming to be the answer to all of your problems, it's easy to see why a lot of people place too much importance on them.
Keep things simple. A whey protein supplement and a creatine monohydrate supplement is all you need to get started and these are the two bodybuilding supplements with by far the most scientific support behind them.
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!
