How to Build Bigger Muscle

By Harley Radowski


Aside from having a healthy body enormous numbers of people, both men and women, are trying to build bigger muscle maybe because they also wanted to spice up their self confidence and get attention as well. Nowadays the public are researching and discovering the best muscle building techniques that are applicable for them.

The system responsible for giving the human body its shape and frame is the musculoskeletal system. It is composed of millions of muscle fibers which when group together will make up the various muscle types. Protein plays an important role in muscle's growth and maturation.

Protein is essential if you want to build bigger muscle mass but protein alone is not adequate. Carbohydrates and fats can also help in building a much leaner muscle. Your caloric intake must depend on your body mass but the required intake is usually 3000-6000 calories per day. It should be balanced and should not be only delicious but must also be healthy and/or nutritious. Your diet can play a huge factor in building muscle mass.

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.

Each training session must not exceed an hour or so due to the risk of overtraining. Exerting too much pressure on your workout can deteriorate and tear your muscle strands. Start from simple exercises only and then pursue to a more vigorous task if you feel like it. Bench press, leg press, and weight lifting are some examples of these exercises. Not everyone is able to achieve the results they want. Some people have muscles that recover much more slowly from workouts compared to others, which is the reason behind why they are not able to see muscle growth early on.

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.

As stated earlier, your body also needs an essential rest besides training hard. Sleeping stimulates the pituitary gland in order to release growth hormones. There is a famous 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.

Isn't it odd to have a big upper body and a skinny leg or vice versa? Proper balance is necessaryand this involves training the muscle needing the most attention first.

One of the best ways of building a lean muscle mass while burning fat is performing Cardiovascular exercise. It is necessary to perform this exercise early in the morning basically before eating breakfast. Cardio carried out about once a week or to a maximum of once every two weeks.

However executing cardio more often than this is exhausting and can take away the quality of your muscle gains resulting in a much smaller muscle size which is certainly not what you are trying to accomplish. Cardiovascular exercise is usually done in the early morning more often than not before breakfast.

Falling in trenches during the muscle building process is expected. It is advisable to control your impatience when working out. Lack of patience is the biggest and most common hindrance of novices or even the hard gainers. Their eagerness to gain muscle mass early on only hurts them.

Having patience is the only key to success. The secret of muscle growth also involves consistency, discipline, knowledge and determination. Exhibiting proper technique and attitude while working out is a huge factor in anyone's success in building bigger muscle.
