The 2 Most Important Keys To Building Muscle
There are only 2 things you have to get right when trying to
build muscle mass. They are training and nutrition. All other
aspects of trying to build muscle are not nearly as important.
But which one is more important for building muscle; is it
training or nutrition? Well, if all your bases are covered in
regards to proper nutrition and getting your needed calories,
then training becomes the most important catalyst for muscle
growth.
Heavy weight training is the only way to force your body into
building muscle. Your body will not waste any of its energy on
building or maintaining muscle tissue that isn't needed.
That's why if you stop lifting for a while, you lose the muscle
mass you once had. Your body has no reason to keep this extra
muscle mass, since it takes energy (calories) to maintain it.
The human body is very good at conserving energy it doesn't need
to use.
That's why you have to keep lifting progressively heavier weight
over time; to keep forcing your body to build muscle.
Aerobic exercise won't build muscle, only heavy, intense
training will. You must stress the muscle to the point of
failure for the body to cause an adaptive response of building
muscle.
Weight training needs to be brief and intense. Doing any more
reps or sets than needed to stimulate muscle growth will result
in overtraining.
Now, as far as nutrition goes, that alone will not make up for
the lack of heavy training or the overtraining that you
do in
the gym.
Training and only training leads to muscle growth. You need to
train hard and then get the proper rest. Only after training
does nutrition play a vital role.
All that's needed for nutrition to build muscle is a
well-balanced diet that includes high protein, moderate carbs,
and low fats.
If you feel that you've been overtraining, the first thing you
should do is take a week off from all lifting. You need to rest
and recover from the overtraining you've been doing.
Once you feel back to your strong, energetic self, start to
train with a high intensity program that lasts no longer than 45
minutes.
Do just 1 or 2 muscle groups per workout, using only 2 exercises
and 2 heavy sets for each. Again, keep intensity high, since
this is the biggest factor towards building muscle.
Support this muscle building process with proper nutrition. Eat
5 to 6 smaller meals each day, using quality protein and complex
carbs as the majority of your calories.
If you follow these 2 steps of intense weight training and
proper nutrition, you'll soon be building more muscle than you
ever have in the past.
