After three to four months of a workout program you will usually hit a plateau. Today we are going to explain how to build muscle effectively and continuously, bursting through that plateau and pushing yourself to a new personal best.
After a few months of training you'll already know that in order to grow you need to be consistent at the gym and you need to be focusing on your big compound lifts in order to get the most from your body. So today we're going to look at a few tips which fitness enthusiasts tend to forget about.
The reason so many folks get nowhere is that they are constantly getting conflicting information. Most people have encountered this situation, so if you have people trying to alter your training routine with various tips you are certainly not alone. What this situation can do if you're not careful, however, is hold you back severely. Sometimes you need to go back to the old classics to get consistent progress.
Every day we are asked by gym members for tips on this subject and there are 3 questions which people appear to have more confusion with. We have answered them below for you...
* How many reps is best for a strength and size goal?
* What do you need to eat?
* How often should you train each muscle?
You should be hitting the hypertrophy zone with your rep range. Each set should be carefully aimed at a maximum of twelve reps, this ensures you land in the perfect zone for growth. So stop with the endless sets of twenty five with light weights. If you are trying to build you don't necessarily have to work harder, just smarter.
Should you already be successfully hitting the hypertrophy zone the next step is slotting in proven techniques to increase the difficulty further. Drop sets and pyramids are just two solid examples of this.
If you need some help with your diet don't worry, you are in the right place. We are going to show you the basics of a good building diet which will allow you to add size but also ensure it's not fat.
The majority of us presume that diets are for girls, of course, and we don't need to watch what we eat if we are trying to get bigger. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, unless you're striving for a power lifter type physique you should be paying attention to your food.
While you could spend your time counting every single calorie in all of the food you eat, you will more than likely just drive yourself insane and remove any fun from your daily diet making it impossible to stick to. Instead, the 3-5-2 concept is simple and loose, allowing you to make allowances where you feel necessary. With 30% of your calories arriving from sources of protein, 50% carbohydrate and 20% from fat you will have a rock solid and trustworthy foundation to build from.
The most overlooked aspect of training is rest. You should try to avoid going to the gym every day, the more rest you allow your body the chance to grow. So be sure to pack in a few days of kicking back from your training. If it proves hard to resist the urge to go workout, think of a rest day as a day of growth.
Should you be stuck at a plateau and unable to figure out how to build muscle on a more consistent basis you are now armed with the key facts on making you dream come true. Years of science support each of the three steps given today, so you can hit the gym with confidence!
