There are a few rules that muscle building pros follow closely. They follow these rules with a passion because they work! These rules keep these guys on track and help them receive maximum output for their input. Here are just a few of those rules... #1 - Set SPECIFIC Goals It is not enough to say I want hot abs or large arm muscles. You need to be specific on what you want so that the things you do are relevant to that goal. If you are not specific, then you won't know when you are on track or off track. Grab a piece of paper and write out specifically what you want. Include the date of when you want to have this. #2 - Workout Occasionally This may not make sense to you, but it works. Put it this way: If you do too much workouts you will not give your muscles enough time to repair themselves. You need to take some time to rest. Most people think that you need to train as much as possible. This is not true. When you are training, your muscles do not get a chance to repair themsel...

Muscle building is achieved to a great extent by people who are incredibly passionate about it. These people set goals and stick to them until they are accomplished. No "ifs" and no "buts." Yet with all this dedication, there are things that can ruin your goal and the body that you are aiming for. Bad Food Muscle building is hugely dependent on the types of food you eat. It is not enough just to workout. You also need to eat right. This means that you should stay away from foods like fast food and soda. You can eat these things on occasion, but don't overdo it. Make sure to eat foods with a lot of energy and protein in them like beef, pork, and some chickens. Eggs are good too. Steroids You have probably already had people approach you in the gym and ask you if you wanted to buy steroids off of them. Hopefully you said no and walked away. Steroids, my friends, is not the solution. No matter how strong and fast you can get your muscles showing, in the long run s...

One of the greatest things that body builders and muscle builders alike want to achieve is not just muscle gain, but also to burn fat. It is no secret that there are 100's of gimmicky programs and so called "solutions" to burning fat that it is almost disgusting. Before you end up selling your house in trying to buy these programs, take a look at a few foods that can not only burn your fat, but save your wallet... 1 - EFAs EFA stands for Essential fatty acids - fats that are very important to your body but cannot be produced by it. In other words, these are fats that your body can't produce but instead must get it from foods. A very popular EFA is fish. You can try wild salmon, herring, and tuna. Eating fish can reduce the leptin in your body resulting in less fat in your body. 2 - Bananas Bananas contain about 450 mg of potassium - an important chemical that can increase your metabolism and regulate the water balance in your body. It is best to eat about 4 bananas ...

Lifting a heavy weight that you can only manage to lift a few times is considered high intensity training. Lifting lower weights, but at high repetitions is considered low or moderate intensity. High intensity training is usually only recommended for athletes and experienced weight lifters. It is a very effective method for obtaining strength and power gains. You are placing the muscle under maximum stress, and challenging it to its limit. This forces it to adapt much faster than using lower weights. Because you are under such strain, you will only be able to make a few reps, but this is sufficient to encourage the muscle to grow. Your strength and power will improve significantly, however your endurance will not improve as much, because the amount of time that you are stressing the muscle for is relatively short. You are building a body that is good at producing explosive short term power, but will tire out quickly. You are also at greater risk of injury following this method, due t...

Shoulders are a tough muscle group to target with bodyweight movements. The shoulders come into play as stabilizer muscles for all upper body bodyweight movements. However, some movements work the shoulders better than others. Here are some of the top shoulder exercises you can do with just your bodyweight: Hindu Pushups/ Dive Bombers Hindu Pushups and Dive Bombers were made famous by a guy named Matt Furey. The hindu pushups got their name because Mr. Furey claimed they were one of the three bodyweight movements used by Indian wrestlers back in the day. Hindu pushups are a great movement, especially if you want to isolate your shoulders. They also work great because they hit your chest from three different angles at once: upper chest, middle chest, and lower chest. Pretty cool. The Dive Bomber is a tougher variation of the Hindu Pushup. Decline Pushups Decline pushups are simply a variation of the pushups where you place your feet on a surface and your hands on the floor to perform ...

Here are 7 pushup variations you can use: Uneven Pushups Get into pushups position, placing one hand on the floor and the other hand on an elevated object. The higher the object, the more difficult the movement. Perform all the repetitions on side, before switching sides.
