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.
While many people spend their time searching for over complicated, impossible to follow diet and training systems the truth is the basic old-school rules still work best when applied to this type of long-term goal.
1) Change Your Diet To Gain Size And Strength.
2) Stick To Basic Supplements.
3) Tailor Your Workouts.
4) The Importance Of Rest.
5) Sleeping Is Now Part Of Your Training.
The five rules are very basic and, strangely, very easily overlooked in favor of needlessly more complicated techniques. Simply put, these are proven to work and have stood the test of time on the gym floor. Rule number one is about diet. That's right, you still need to diet if your goal is adding size and strength.
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.
The second step is to get to know your sports supplements. Most of us use a protein or creatine but most of us don't know anything more other than they're supposed to be good for you, that's it. If you don't know why you're taking something, you should not be taking it. It is that simple.
When it comes to bodybuilding supplements it pays to stick to the proven basics. Creatine and whey protein, for example, are both proven and side effect free. Get the rest of your nutrients from your diet, don't over rely on pills and potions.
Our 3rd step is all about working out. I've lost count of the number of times people have told me they're trying to get bigger and then I see them in the gym doing a routine which is never going to get them there. If you crave size, compound exercises like Squats and Military Presses are your best friend.
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.
Sleeping is also a key ingredient in this type of diet. In order to release growth hormone your body needs to be asleep. If you fail to get enough sleep you sell yourself short. It's that simple.
If anybody reading this also read our five step guide on how to lose weight fast and safely you'll notice that it was just as simple and easy to follow. Because despite all the hype and confusion surrounding how to build muscle the basics are still as good as it gets.
