Get Big Muscles

Muscles, Muscles and More Muscles! Read to find out how to get big muscles quickly!

I have read about over a hundred tips on how to bulk up really quick.  Here are some of simple tips that could help you:

1. Use a mirror.  You tend to be extra careful when you see yourself in the mirror, checking every lift, movement and position which can prevent injuries.

2. Add extra resistance to your workout.  Especially when you’re budget cannot permit you to go hit a gym. You can use a band or a homemade dumbbell to do that bicep curls or overhead triceps extensions.

3. Warm up, warm up and warm up.  This will prepare your muscles and joints for much more difficult workouts.
To target your hamstrings.  Try riding a stationary bike and pedal it with one leg at a time then switch when you feel it burning.  Then pedal with both legs.

4. Watch your protein intake.  Though protein helps in muscle building, too much of a good thing could go bad.  Our bodies can burn or consume a certain amount of  protein … anything beyond the normal level can also be turned into fat instead of the protein going into developing your muscles. Here’s another post I made on how to use diet to gain muscles fast.

5. Jog in moderation.  If you’re jogging lavishly as part of your cardiovascular workout, think again.  This might compromise your muscle development. Instead of bulking it up, jogging reduces fat as well as your muscles.

6. Don’t forget to get a dose of your calcium rich food or drinks.  Stronger bones mean a stronger body frame where muscles dangle on.

7.You don’t have to say no again to ice creams during muscle building.  You still can enjoy ice cream as long as its soft-serve.  Soft-serve ice creams are milk so it has more whey protein and lesser fat solids.  What are you waiting for, grab one now!

8. Put some variations in your routine.  You can do 2-counts on your first set then 3-counts on each lift then back to 2-counts again on your next and last set.  This promote quick muscle growth.

9. Remember to take your daily multivitamins.  This doesn’t only protect you from sickness but also protect you again muscle damage and help promote faster recovery from heavy workouts.

10. Put everything in writing!  Write down everything.  Yes waiting to see the result in the mirror is good but seeing our progress along the way pays as much too.  You can see your detailed accomplishments and who knows you can share your success to a friend in need.

11. Do more total-body exercise.  If there’s such a thing as multi-tasking when it comes to work, in body building there’s what you call total-body exercise.  Meaning one exercise targeting two or three muscle groups.  Don’t you love that?

12. Stay hydrated.  Drink plenty of water.  This doesn’t help you burn fat but build muscles as well.  This also prevents you from feeling fatigue during workouts.

13. Get the right amount of sleep.  Production of new cells in our body takes place while we are asleep and if you are training hard and heavy to build mass, sleep more than eight hours.

Following these tips, you’ll be on your way to get big muscles sooner rather then later!

bulk up your muscles quickly!

People have so many questions about muscle gains, many of which are left unanswered. But now that you are reading this, you will get to know the answer to one of the most asked question about gaining muscles: how to bulk up really quick. Many people have searched an answer to this question. Now, they have found out that there are basically three things that one must do to bulk up really quick. These three methods that one should undergo is not a simple task. In fact, this might be the hardest task a person would walk through for it requires breaking habits. But if you are up to the challenge, then get ready to follow these three methods.

The first method you should do is to do smart exercises. Many people do exercise. But are they doing it right? With smart exercises, you will be able to bulk up really quick, though you will have to go through hardships. Here are some tips you can use to make a smart exercise: perform short intense weight training. Each training must consume only 45 minutes or less of your time. Do this for 3-4 times a week. Remember to warm up for 5-10 minutes before starting weight training. You should also do cool downs after the session. Your exercises should compose of compound exercises such as squats, bench press, pull-ups, chin ups, rows, dead lifts, etc. Your repetition or “reps” should only be from 8-15 per set. You should do at least 2-4 sets of every exercise. You can only rest for up to two minutes before doing another set. You should also have cardiovascular exercises that must be done for 10-20 minutes. Cardiovascular exercises are only needed to be done twice a week. Lastly, change up your workout frequently. Change the exercises, sets and repetition schemes and rest between sets as much as possible.

The next method that you should do is to have a proper diet. To do this, you must eat 5 to six balance meals a day. Each meal should contain 40% of carbohydrates, 30% of protein and 30% of fats. Observe the foods that you are eating and observe the content they have so that you’ll know how many percent of your meal contain these three minerals. These three minerals are essential in growing your muscles faster. You can get good carbohydrates from foods like fruits, vegetables, legumes, brown rice, oatmeal, etc. Good protein comes from foods like eggs, chicken, fish, lean beef, cottage cheese, low-fat cheese, protein bars, etc. You can absorb good fats from foods like nuts, seeds, olive oil, peanut butter, fatty fish, flax seeds, etc. In order for you to not get depressed from not eating what you want; you can eat whatever you want for one meal per week.

The last method is to get proper supplements. You should take in many vitamins and minerals that your body needs in order to stay healthy. Drink multivitamins so that you’ll get many of those vitamins. You should also use meal replacement powders. This is a perfect way to replace meals so if you’re not hungry, you can still consume protein, fats and calories by using meal replacement powders.

These methods are pretty much easier to follow than other methods you might know. Crash diet, as you may know, is not good for you so the proper diet method is the best solution for you. Overexerting muscles can give you injuries, so you need to do smart exercises. Use these methods and you will find out that it truly is good at bulking you up really quick

Ed’s note: I highly recommend you check out this health supplement, to repair and rebuild your muscles quicker.

7 steps to professional body building

Posted 20 August 2008 by kiez

Do you have any aspirations to become a bodybuilding and fitness professional one day?

I would like to put the pain and frustration that I had to offer through my best. I want to share with you what I learned, you help you succeed and achieve your dreams:

1. To develop, create or invent a “turnkey” system or structured plan (ie training, nutrition, supplementation, lifestyle, or a combination of all these factors) to target audience or market niche.

2. Create a very recognizable, gadget-type name or title to your system would be an extremely useful marketing tool now and in the future (ie bold ideas, Mass. Machine, Max-OT, Heavy Duty, etc. .)

3. Master your craft and develop your style as an inspiration writer. Get a short, 10-chapter book in progress that explains your unique history and the system and do so as soon as possible in your journey in the company fitness.

4. Master your craft and style as an emotion-inducing the president. Get to as many people as you can and as often as possible.

5. You must treat your passion for bodybuilding and fitness as a moneymaking effort from the beginning of your journey. So, of course, you never expect it will eventually become a moneymaking enterprise. Of course, you like helping people and the same goes I. And, yes, you’ll have to share your expertise for free as you establish yourself as an authority. But let me make this perfectly clear: there will be a point in time when the pleasure to help others just for a “pat on the back” will no longer be a sponsor. That is what the forces of health professionals and many of the physical condition to end what they do. They move on to other things in their life-long before they have mastered their skills and touched as many lives as they wanted.

6. Remember that when you’re in a company with the specific purpose of making money, you really connect to your audience and have a sincere desire to help them improve their quality of life.

7. Be persistent. Stay true to yourself, your dreams and your plans and continue to seek ways to create the extraordinary life you want to do in the bodybuilding and fitness world. The road you are about to begin will be difficult at certain times. But is not it true that nothing great that the value of having a life?

High Carbohydrate Performance Drinks

Posted 13 May 2008 by kiez

Carbohydrate drinks are the first training sports drinks to gain popularity. Carbo Force by American Body Building Products was the first created as a beverage. Before that date, various powders were mixed with water by the athlete at the time of their use. Piles of independent research, done around the world, say that carb drinks will boost your energy.

What you must understand is that the body uses glucose as a car uses fuel. When low on fuel, it runs slowly or inadequately. As it is fed more fuel, it accelerates and it burn more fuel. Your body works the same with glucose.

Performance drinks work and they work well. But they will never be powerful enough to replace the dangerous steroids which many person use today. It is important to keep your glucose on a high level while you are active at the gym, and these drinks does exactly that in a very good way. I can guarantee better progress for a person that drink these drinks than a person who does not. What a drink like this basically does is that it gives you glucose and with this extra glucose you can push yourself harder and further than person who does not take these drinks. The effect is as i said above, far away from the powerful yet dangerous steroids but it is clearly the best legal and healthy boost you can get. I recommend that you start with one drink a day after you have been at the gym and your muscles will build up faster and you will have a lot more energy.

10 Quick Tips to Build Mass Part 1

The muscle growth is the logical byproduct of muscle contraction. Much emphasis is placed on the concentric phase of a lift where the muscle shortens because it contracts. But stretching of muscle during the eccentric can have a negative effect on the phase where the muscle lengthens while maintaining the tension, this can directly cause muscle hypertrophy. Emphasizing the negative is a technique easy to overload the muscles and promote radical gains mass.

Fish containing larger quantities of fat - salmon, for example - give us the hugely popular omega-3 fat acids. Why is this important? With Omega-3 the muscle become more sensitive to insulin, from where they fuel glycogen storage and amino acid entry into the muscles, while preserving the glutamine stores.

I am not joking. Sodium is an essential mineral that is an absolute necessity for muscle growth. Sodium has a bad rap because it can cause water retention. On the positive side sodium, carbohydrate storage and improves the absorption of amino acids, while improving the response capacity of the muscle to insulin.

Aerobic exercise has a detrimental effect on the massive building. Aerobic interfere with the force and recovery gains burning up precious glycogen and branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). Adding weight is the best way to improve your resting metabolic rate (RMR), the CMA is, the higher the calories are burned and it is easier to stay lean.

The amount of muscle strength of a product is proportional to the amount of muscle growth, you should be able to create. Force is defined as the mass (weight you use) multiplied by the acceleration (the speed at which you push a weight-resistance). To generate more force, and then gradually increase your poundages while removing explosive - in this context, you increase the speed in the second half of the rep.

10 Quick Tips to Build Mass Part 2

sergiooliva.jpgYou will never arrive at a positive nitrogen balance with a diet low in calories. It takes raw materials - carbohydrates, protein and fat - to build new muscle mass and support recovery. Increasing your calories by 50% (from 3.0000 to 4500 per day, for example) for three days can stimulate growth while adding little or no bodyfat. The key is to limit the increase in calories a period of three designated days, you will be able to stimulate growth by enhancing insulin sensitivity of muscles, and by giving more carbohydrates for the storage of glycogen. If you are in a state overtrained - and if you do not earn any new muscle mass, which is certainly the case - the extra calories encourage anabolism before storing fat can kick in That’s why you want to limit the increase to 50% within three days. After this period, your return to the typical dose of daily calories, you have stimulated new growth without adding unwanted fat.

Anabolism depends on an excess of calories. As you know, bodybuilders eat four to six times a day to increase the absorption of nutrients and to provide an influx of carbohydrates, protein and fat. Expansion on the four to six meals a day is expected to include a protein drink in the middle of the night, which can encourage additional growth. Glutamine EFX, supplying 30 grams of protein and carbohydrates as well as the “big three” (see tip # 10), is a good option for this late at night, the infusion of nutrients.

Your muscles respond to the formation of three ways. When you lead with many reps (over 15), there is an increase in stamina, without a substantial improvement in the size or strength. The six to twelve rep range - the range that all major bodybuilders rely on - favours an increase in the size and strength. Powerlifters generally remain low with representatives from two to four per package, which supplements the force with slight variations in size. However, if you set aside a week of training on the job with the weight of weak representatives from the improved strength will make you stronger when you return to the six and twelve representatives routine. The formula is: More power, more tension in the muscle equals more growth.

Get Stronger With Mind Power

Your thoughts control a lot of your progress and experience as a body builder. First off you have to start think positive about yourself. Once you do this you have to start dream positive about yourself. You should do this as much as you can, for example when you take the bus you should dream about how you want to be and look like in the future and get positive thought to it because with positive thoughts comes positive actions. Another thing I recommend that you do is to make a plan where you write down what you will do better tomorrow. I can give you an example of a plan here:

  • Tomorrow I will only drink water because I don’t want to drink soda
  • I will lift 2 kilo heavier tomorrow in the gym
  • I will run 90 minutes cardio tomorrow
  • Cakes tastes like dog shit
  • I will have extreme amounts of energy tomorrow

This way you will improve you body and your mindset and it will make it easier for you to reach your goals. You just have to collect positive energy for the things you want to complete. If you want muscles it is important to attract everything that has something with muscles to do. Read about it and study it, set goals and work hard.

Maximize your diet to gain muscle mass fast

Posted 12 December 2007 by Mr. Muscle

In my experience, a lot of people I meet still complain about their bodybuilding progress.

Most of them say that they do regular workouts, sleep well and eat properly.

However there results are dismal or average at best, and due to this a lot of them ask for my advice and I tell them “In order to get the results you want, you need to take it to the next level.”

A lot of them think that by saying this I meant that they should workout more but in most cases they have to eat more and sometimes, they just have to eat properly and learn how to maximize their diet.

Here are four tips to help you maximize your diet.

1. Eat Frequently

Now, this is very important. Once you have computed your daily caloric intake, you should be able to determine the number of meals you should be taking per day.

So if you plan to consume 4000 calories per day, your best option would be to eat 6 meals a day. Although this may seem like a lot, your body needs a lot of energy. Remember, if you are sedentary your body burns around 1800 calories. Do the math.

Now if you eat a 4000 calorie meal. That’s a bad idea. But if you divide 4000 calories into 6 small meals a day, then each meal will consist of approximately 660 calories. Believe me when I say that a 660 calorie meal is not alot.

Although it takes a lot of discipline to eat this way eating smaller and more frequent meals is the most effective way to gain weight without increasing your stomach size.

Another reason to eat smaller meals is for the gradual release of insulin. When we eat carbs our blood glucose levels will rise and the body has to counteract this by releasing insulin to lower blood glucose levels and as stated in more other articles insulin is the body’s most anabolic hormone.

This will allow your body to burn fat and build more muscle.

2. Pre-workout Meals are a must

Now, before working out you need to have enough energy to train hard. So the best thing to do is to eat simple carbs like past and rice 30-40 minutes prior to your workout.

The reason is that slow-burning carbs take longer to convert to glucose and it will keep your blood sugar levels consistent which prevents your body from having any energy problems thus allowing you to train longer and harder.

Just be sure to combine this meal with a healthy variety of good protein to maximize the muscle gaining process.

3. Eat a Superior Post-workout Meal

After you workout, it is important to get a meal of fast-burning carbs and protein. Ideal food for this would be whey protein mixed with fruit. I usually get some milk mix it with my whey protein powder and shoot in a banana or two.

It is very important to eat/drink exactly after a workout, since during workout time you actually tear your muscles and put it into a catabolic state (A state of breaking molecules down in your body) This “Destruction” is what tricks your body to adapt to the situation by building bigger and stronger muscles.

5 Muscle Building Mistakes To Avoid!

Posted 05 December 2007 by Mr. Muscle

Heyo, got an article for you today on avoiding some common muscle building mistakes people like you and I make from time to time…

You’ve always wanted to bulk up on those muscles and you think you’re ready to ’start’. Start you must but do check against these five commonly committed muscle building mistakes first!

Muscle Mistake #1
Going in without a proper plan – I’m sure you’ve heard of the phrase ‘failing to plan means planning to fail’ and this is so very true with building muscles! Going in without a proper workout plan and without a proper diet is like going into battle without a war plan. You’ll face almost certain doom and failure. So remember to plan, plan and plan some more.

Muscle Mistake #2
Same old same old – what this means is that you continue doing your set of repetitions over and over again. Week in week out you’re doing the same old repetitions without increasing your workload. You need to work and challenge your muscles! Progressively increase your workload and your muscles will thank you for that in the long run. 

Muscle Mistake #3  » read the rest of this post
