Do You Want to Build Bigger Muscle?

By Harley Radowski

Some people say that in order to boost their self confidence they usually try to compensate it by enhancing their physical appearance. It is happening more and more often nowadays. People are getting attention because they have managed to build bigger muscles than others. Besides getting attention, another common reason why most people especially men are going into workouts is to have a healthier body.

The muscular system is the system responsible for giving the body its shape and frame. It is composed of millions of muscle fibers which when grouped together will make up the various muscle types. Muscles depend on protein for their growth and maturation.

Although protein is essential, the process is not considered complete without the aid of carbohydrates as well as fats. Your body requires that you have an adequate intake of these macronutrients in order to build bigger muscle mass. Caloric intake should be as high as possible depending on your body mass. Keep your diet as balanced as possible and make sure that it is considered healthy. Your body burns your caloric stores during your exercise or even in doing just simple activities of daily living.

A comprehensive physical training routine along with a balanced diet is of considerable importance in building a bigger muscle. Start by training in a gym for few days per week, without exceeding an hour approximately on each training session.

It is important to keep your workout no longer than one hour due to danger of tearing your muscle strands making them weak and brittle. At first, try to keep your workouts around key exercise movement - bench press, leg press, etc. - then proceed to more vigorous training such as lifting a few weights when your body is totally adjusted to your training.

It's really hard to build a lean muscle mass that is why some people are eager to accomplish it even they have been working out for only few days. They think that they have failed when they see no abrupt improvement in their physical condition. Only a few have the knowledge that some people's muscles may recover more slowly from workouts than others. It is normal that after you train your muscle become sore. If a muscle is sore, don't exercise that particular muscle unless it has fully recovered. You need an adequate rest in between workouts to give your muscles sufficient time for healing and a chance to actually grow.

Sleeping stimulates your pituitary gland to release growth hormones. These growth hormones include tryptophan, glycine, ornithine, and arginine. It only proves the saying, "muscles grow while you sleep".

Enough rest is as essential as dieting and physical training. Rest is also needed even if you are undergoing a vigorous physical training. Resting is actually the time when your muscles are starting to grow and build.

Superset training system is the use of three or four different types of exercise for the same muscle - the deltoid for instance. This training will allow you to experience an ultimate pump in the muscle belly and an increase in muscle size and strength with repetitive training sessions. People as we know have favoritism. As much as possible they try to focus on a single body part when working. This attitude may put them at risk of muscular imbalances.

I'm sure you would agree it would be odd to have a big upper body and skinny legs or vice versa? That's an example of muscular imbalance. It is therefore necessary to balance not only your diet but your muscle training as well. Achieving proper muscular balance involves paying attention to the muscle which lacks mass or leanness.

Cardiovascular exercise is another important thing while having a workout. It should be carried out either before or after your vigorous training as it helps in providing a maximum heart function. You only need to perform this exercise for a minimum of once a week to a maximum of once every two weeks.

But don't push your boundaries; performing cardio beyond these limits can take away the quality of muscle gains, resulting in a much smaller muscle size.

For novices and hard gainers, long patience is a must if you are wishing to achieve the muscle mass you've always wanted. Lack of patience is a big no if you are taking workouts. Strong eagerness to gain muscle mass early on will do nothing.

Patience is the only key to success. You should also keep in mind that consistency, discipline, knowledge and determination will also help you in achieving your goal. - 17268
