Why Most Guys Can't Build Muscle In The Gym

By Russ Howe


Today we're going to answer to the most popular question on the lips of every guy in your local gym. Most of us have wondered how to build muscle and simply never known who to ask or who to believe, so today we're going to deliver the top facts for you.

The next time you're in your local gym take a look around the free weights section. You'll see a variety of characters which populate the majority of gyms around the world. By that, of course, we mean guys who enjoy throwing the weights around but don't seem to be getting anywhere with their results. After today you'll never become part of that crowd.

Furthermore none of today's tips will cost you a dime.

The first step to building a better body starts in the kitchen at home, not in the gymnasium. Before you head off for your next workout try to set some time to one side and allow yourself to write up an eating plan. By ensuring your nutrition is geared towards building the type of physique you're striving for physically you will make your journey far easier.

For the most part, however, guys tend to skip straight past that part and believe that building a muscular physique can be achieved by eating whatever they want and lifting weights with their friends. One of the main reasons people put this off is because they think it's harder than it actually is.

If you take the body weight you wish to be (in pounds) and multiply it by fifteen.

That's how to set your ballpark figure for your daily calorie intake. Don't worry if you are a little bit over or under, we don't want you getting into the habit of calorie counting.

If your diet is solid you'll be amazed at the improvement in your results. However, try combining that with the following tips as well for even further improvements.

First of which is your sleeping routine. If you fail to get a good night's sleep you are missing out on results. The release of growth hormone occurs while you sleep but if you are only getting a couple of hours each night you are missing out, as it occurs once you hit a deep sleep. When people recommend you get eight hours per night it's not just for comfort but results, too.

We want to take a moment or two to discuss the importance, or rather than un-importance, of bodybuilding supplements. The only supplements you really 'need' to add to your nutrition plan are whey protein and creatine monohydrate. You can go crazy with supplements but the majority of people get lost in the hype and expect their latest product to produce miracle results, which it won't. The key word to remember is supplement, it's there to support your diet plan not replace it.

Whey protein and creatine have by far the most research to back up their scientific advantages so it's definitely worthwhile adding them to your diet, but try to keep your supplements to a minimum.

The simple points in today's video post will teach you the fundamental basics of how to build muscle and retain it forever. It's time to get started. By the time you're ready for your next gym session you should be equipped with a fountain of new confidence.
