5 Secrets the Pros Don’t Tell You about Building Muscle Fast

by BuildMuscleFast on November 18, 2009

If you are serious about getting ripped and building some serious muscles then you need to be in on some of the tips you don’t always hear about. There are a ton of gadgets on the market that promise to help you build muscles with you doing basically nothing but these are all useless because with these simple tips, you can buff up in no time and do it safely.

  • Use Heavy Weights

Getting serious muscle growth fast is done through hard work with heavy weights. If anyone tells you that you can gain fast results with lower weights and a longer workout, they are misleading you. How heavy is heavy? For each person this will be different but by the time you reach rep number 6 you should be wondering how you would ever make it to rep 10 and 12. If you can make it to rep 8 without struggling, you need more weight.

  • Keep It Short

Working out as intensely as you will be you will want to keep your entire workout to one hour at the most. Anything more than this will increase the recovery time your muscles will need to recuperate. If you push your muscles too much before they are able to heal properly, you risk tearing and damaging your muscles permanently. Working two groups of muscles a workout is ideal.

  • Do Less On Less

This means you should be doing fewer sets each workout and on fewer parts of the body. You may have the idea to work every muscle every day but this can be damaging and make the workouts useless over time. Inducing muscle growth is the goal and that can easily be accomplished by working two sets of muscles a day. This gives the muscles the proper time to heal and grow and the results will be fantastic.

  • Healthy Foods

It is definitely possible to get all the nutrients, minerals, proteins and carbohydrates you need through a proper diet. You will want to keep your diet rich with proteins, calories and carbohydrates while avoiding bad fats. Lean meats, fish, chicken and egg whites are great places to start along with all the vegetables you can handle.

  • Eat All Day Long

This doesn’t mean have a food bag on your face all day, it means you need to eat about 8 meals a day to keep your energy and protein levels up. This can be accomplished much more easily that it sounds. Eating 4 solid meals a day, coupled with 3-4 protein shakes, the meal replacement kind, will give your body the calories and protein to ensure your muscles have the needed nutrients to grow.
