Five simple rules to get muscles fast

May 25, 2009

musclesfastThis article talks about five proven methods that will help you develop good, strong muscles in a short span of time. These rules have been tried and tested by body builders around the world who are well known for their well built muscular physique.

Do not work out daily. Yes. You saw it right! If you are trying to build muscles, you should not work out daily. Your muscles are built stronger and larger by their wear and tear.

When you exercise your muscles, you are working on them and exerting strain which will cause them to wear out. Your body needs time to repair these muscles.

Hence, you need to give time for your body to repair them. Body builders like Steve Reeves and Mike Mentzer followed this strategy. It is recommended that you work out 4 times a week for maximum results.

Make sure you completely understand what you are doing while doing weight training. Do not compete with other people to see who can lift the fastest and highest. These are meaningless. Instead focus on what you are doing and do it the right way.

Do not hurry the workout. Feel the muscle being worked. Do not start off with heavy weights. You have to start with smaller weights and pave your way to working out with heavier weights.

Remember to use only those muscles that you are currently focusing on. Don’t involve every other muscle in the body to perform just one workout.
Physiologists all around the world say that it takes about 48 hours for your body to repair the muscles that have been worked on and worn out.

Hence, space your workouts so that you give sufficient time for your body to repair the worn out muscles.  It is okay to miss working out when you are busy. Do not subject yourself to mental strain when you miss out on a day’s workout schedule.

The goal of your working out is to build more muscle. Let your focus not waver from your goal. Ensure that while you work out you perform all your repetitions with the same speed and interval.

For example, you may take four seconds to lift the weight, retain it in that position for 4 seconds and return to the normal position in 4 seconds. Ensure that this remains the same for all repetitions.
