If you are confused as to how to build muscle in the gym, today's post is specifically for you. Seriously, drop everything and read these tips. Because alongside how to lose weight effectively, this is undoubtedly the number one topic we're quizzed on at the gym by customers.
Today's post will feature five foundations of building lean, fat free tissue. Whether you're looking to become a man-mountain or just simply improve your physique, let's get to work.
1) Diet To Build.
2) Know Your Supplements.
3) Tailor Your Workouts.
4) Rest Your Muscles.
5) Get Enough Sleep.
Some of these tips seem like common sense. One and three, for example. But we're amazed by how many people do these wrong. For instance. the first tip is about simply dieting to build rather than dieting to cut. Most people who are trying to get bigger don't even look after their diet. They have a false idea that in order to gain size you just have a post-workout protein shake and then eat whatever you like for the rest of the time.
That's why when they do add size it's the type of size they didn't necessarily want, i.e. fat.
In order to get bigger but also stay lean you have to diet. In the video we reveal how to work out your ideal diet to add lean tissue without storing lots of fat in the process. This simply works and has stood the test of time.
Rule number two is about knowing your supplements. Too often, people are all too quick to take a product without truly knowing what they're actually putting into their body, what it's supposed to be doing for them or why they even need it.
Keep your supplements basic when going for size. Stick to the proven ones such as whey protein and creatine, anything else is an 'add on' and not a necessity. The basis of your diet should revolve around food, not powder and pills.
Tip three is about your time in the gym. If you want to get bigger, you need to train bigger. That doesn't necessarily mean longer, either. Stick to the hardcore basic exercises such as Deadlifts and Pull Ups. These multi-joint exercises are spectacular for building up strength and size.
Rest is the most overlooked rule. Once you begin enjoying your training you don't want to take a day off, understandably. But the truth is you hinder yourself if you train too much, particularly with this type of long-term goal. Beware of over-training.
Sleep is also important, as your body releases it's stores of natural growth hormone during this type. Fail to get enough sleep and you don't let this happen, obviously. Aim for 6-8 hours every night.
So there you have it. We recently gave five tips showing you how to lose weight and keep it off, today we focus on how to build muscle and you'll notice the tips are no more difficult. Apply these to your current training routine and you'll see great returns on each of the steps.
