Build Bigger Muscle with a Weight Lifting Program

By Wakelin Smith


Although the body shape fad is that of stilt-looking beanpoles, it is fairly common to come across people who go for the men of brawns image. To build bigger muscle, however, is more than enhancing one's physical look but rather works for an over-all active and healthy body.

There are known ways to form great muscles, but having a complete body building program is most popular. These common programs will work on your gaining weight primarily then head on to toning your muscles. Body building programs come with a complete set of steps to take in nutrition, weight training, supplementation, and avoiding injuries. The steps you need to take are quite easy and enjoyable to follow which form quite a routine. You only need to be careful about having a personal trainer. You have to make sure that he's not a hoax and instead a certified professional trainer who won't give you excess time for additional pay.

There are those who say that homemade is best made. It's still applicable to losing weight and toning muscles. You can do the best muscle building techniques in the privacy of your home and still get the best results. It's not necessary that you submit yourself to a grueling trainer and get stuck in a cramped gym environment. You can use common techniques like calisthenics. You can do push-ups, pull-ups and some crunches daily. You can do these with a couple of weight lifting, starting from an empty bar and progressing toward heavier weights. All of these are done in the privacy of your home where you can have peace of mind and comfort.

You will also develop endurance and well-formed muscles when you lift free weights rather than undergo machine exercises. You can use the heaviest weights to give you more stress, and the more stress you have, the more muscles you develop. You have to bear in mind though that dumbbells are not meant for major lifts but more on assistance exercises.

When you have a personal goal of looking like Arnold Schwarzenegger's physique, you will have to start from scratch. You will have to start from scratch. Simple and compound exercises that target several muscle groups are perfect to begin with. When you have had a solid foundation you can shift and use isolation exercises. Now it should be self explanatory why this is step by step process.

For someone who wants a truly muscular body, one has to remember that he needs to train his legs by doing proper squats regularly. He should do it as frequently as 1.5 times his body weight. When he does squats, he should do it properly with his hips lower than his knees. Usually body builders are known to be health conscious, even if most of them aim for the muscles more than they do for health. It might be because most of them know it well that proper diet, enough rest and sleep and enough water intake can hasten muscle development than mere exercise without the right sustenance.

The best muscle building technique so far is to gain weight by eating a lot. You might say that this is quite easy except that you will have to do this while taking a lot of protein-rich foods. Skipping breakfast is not allowed. Instead you need to load up on some carbohydrates in the morning. The first and only commandment to remember in body building is persistence. When it feels like you are going to die if you lift those weights, just think of the rewards you will reap, going to the beach clad in your fabulous trunks with everyone drooling at you, for that taut body build.
