The Fastest Way To Build Muscle Effectively

By Emmanuel Palmer


Ok, you have had a pretty easy season but now summer is right around the corner, what are you going to do? Don't shop for big shirts and shorts just yet; maybe you don't even have to. Get enrolled in a gym and find information on the fastest way to build muscle starting right now.

It's good that you are renewing your interest in all things fitness, whatever the motivations might initially be. Let's start with the basic information on how to build bigger muscle for your body. The principle of progressive overload is periodically increasing your body's strength capacity by putting on it higher weight loads over time. Your body responds by creating stronger tissue - hence the commencement of muscle development.

When you begin your workout program, consult with the in-house trainer about the drills and the amount of weight you will be attempting to take on per exercise. As a rule, opt for weight loads that you can lift until about the 8th or 12th rep. Keep in mind that by maximum tolerance here should mean that you keep the correct form all throughout. Aim to do at least 8 reps per set and around 6-9 sets of different exercises per muscle group.

As you exercise, your muscle tissues get a few tears in it especially when you lift the heavier weights. To speed up the process of repairing these tissues you will need to get in as much protein as you can in your diet. Chicken, fish, lean meat, eggs, nuts, sea food and cheese are excellent, and delicious I might add, sources of protein. Know your recommended protein intake per day by multiplying your lean mass weight (total body weight less the amount of fat) by 2.75.

Experts on bodybuilding vary in their opinions on how much fat one should be allowed to take. If you really want to achieve that massive physique, then include fat in your diet. This boosts muscle building hormones found in your body. Keep an eye on your eating though; if you ever take a long hiatus from working out without modifying your eating habits, you will gain weight without the muscles - read: not a pretty sight. Drink around 10-12 glasses of water a day to fuel your training sessions.

And to save the best for last, one of the best tips to build bigger muscle is sleep. That's right, sleep. Resting helps in muscle development because this is the time the previously mentioned muscle tears gets fixed and mended. Sleep also stimulates blood flow to the muscle tissues, preparing it for future sessions of more pain induced workouts. If you want to speed up muscle development, get quality sleep.

You just finished reading the simplest and fastest way to build muscle. Eat well, drink well, and sleep well - that doesn't really sound too hard now does it? Make sure that you do not have existing physical conditions that certain drills will aggravate; after that, you are free to make the most out of your training. Enjoy! Working out can be challenging but nothing beats seeing the great physique all that exercising has paid for.
