How to Double Your Muscle Gain

23:51 / Posted by kreid /

A fitness program should be customized to your body type in order to get positive results. You have to remember that your body is different from other people. You have a different metabolic rate to the next guy and you also have a different body structure that will require an altered body building program. If your friend is using a muscle building routine that is working for him, the same program may not necessarily work for you.


One mistake that most people make when it comes to muscle gain or fitness programs, is that they stick to a program that clearly doesn't work for them. Remember, if you see that your body building program is not working, why should you keep on doing it? Bit of a waste of time and energy (and money if you go to a gym).


Give any new training program 2 or 3 weeks. You will be able to see if there are any improvements or not; a great program will show clear improvements in your body within this short time. Don't continue with an exercise program for months if you don’t see any positive results after the initial three weeks.


Here are some tips that will be able to maximize efficiency when you work out and also maximize your body building exercises.


Initially, you need to remember that half reps will not cut it. Do only full reps even if it is strenuous. However, you have to avoid over-training at the same time. Always remember that in muscle building, recuperation is the key. Try to rest for at least a day between times. This way, you will be able to give your muscles the rest they need in order to grow.


Also note that muscle training is actually damaging your muscles. You are injuring your muscles in order to make them grow. Your body adjusts to your actions and grows stronger and bigger muscle tissue. This is what actually happens when you gain muscle mass.

If you are overweight, then you have to remember that the best way to reduce fat is by incorporating cardiovascular exercise into your muscle building program. Cardiovascular exercises are known as aerobic exercises, since they burn fat. They are able to do this since they take place over a relatively long period of time and force your body to use fat as fuel. In contrast, weight lifting is anaerobic exercise, as it involves short bursts of hard exertion, and therefore only burns sugar (glycogen).

Correct execution of the individual exercises is also very important in promoting muscle growth. One common mistake is to perform exercises too fast. Another is to allow the weight to drop once it has reached its highest point. Going slow on each repetition is better. Imagine you are doing barbell curls - lift the barbell up until you fully tighten your biceps and slowly lower it down to the starting point. The smooth lowering action is highly efficient at boosting muscle growth, it is just as important as the upwards movement.

These are just a few tips on how to increase your rate of muscle weight gain. Always remember that with the proper diet, good form while doing your workout, and plenty of rest, you will be able to get the results you want faster.
