Pump up your Muscles
Everyone wants muscles; however, most people seem to be completely unaware about how to get them. First of all, getting muscles is not just about performing one activity but a series of them. Later, I’ll elaborate on this particular topic.
Just remember that in order to gain pounds of muscle you have to become mentally disciplined in your head before you begin. Having already experienced your weight loss or muscle gain in your head is critical because your thoughts become reality
Before anything else, ask yourself: just how muscular do I want to be? Don’t do it if you’re insecure because guess what, you’re still going to be insecure and have low self esteem whether or not you gain pounds of muscle and look like a ripped bodybuilder. I know you’re thinking that this isn’t the case and I’m wrong but trust me it’s true. Confidence should come from within and not from how you look physically.
Now, if your aim is to build muscles for other reasons such as sports or a requirement of your job, then you will have to first think about how much muscle you want. To become strong, you’re going to have to build up strength. It takes discipline to become a disciplined person. Hence, you should now be fully aware of what your goals are and what you will need to do to achieve them.
Workout at least 4 times per week with aggression and determination that doesn’t waver. Bear in mind that anything you can do today depends on what you did the last time. To put it bluntly, cheating is not allowed and don’t go easy on the weights. A single machine is not enough for one body part, so try to use at least 3 machines. For me personally, two body parts per workout is the target I usually aim for. All in all, that means I’m doing 6 different exercises. In a day, that could mean 3 chest exercises and another three for the back.
By the way, if you really want the best workout program that will work for your body type, I highly suggest you read my Jason Ferruggia Workout Review.
What you should be aiming for here are low reps but utilizing heavy weight. Your aim would be around 4 to 6 reps. During the last rep, don’t be disappointed if you find it hard to accomplish. You should be struggling beyond belief.
Now get up up and pay a little visit to the gym!
Increasing Muscle Size
Exercise:
Here, we’ll discuss certain exercises that will help increase your muscle size. The important thing is that you max out when lifting while continuously trying to increase your weight. Basically, max is the term for one rep of the highest weight you can lift. Your goal here would be to have your max increase every workout session.
Many people want to get bigger muscles but they don’t want to sacrifice to get them. There is just no way around it, you must increase your weight or reps every time you workout.
A training partner is also a requirement when working out. Ideally, you’ll want to work more on free weight exercises so that your body will learn how to balance and use real weights. There are tons of different muscle fibers that are used when you are trying to balance free weights. Perform few reps with very heavy weight if you can. You might want to do 8, 6 and 4 reps on a certain free weight exercise like bench press or incline bench press. Limit your exercises to two body parts 3 times a week.
What to Eat:
You have to stop eating all the processed foods and the sugars and the late night eating. To get big muscles, then you should be extra concerned about what you put in your body. The food type you want to eat to get bigger muscles would be the ones packed with protein. You might as well know that amino acids are vital when it comes to the production of protein. When you workout hard and find yourself getting torn muscles, then proteins will be the nutrients that will mend it together again. To tell you the truth, my secret weapon that nobody else knows is MSM! You can find protein in different foods such as chicken, egg or fish.

Break Time:
Keep in mind that working out without allotting time for rest is detrimental for getting bigger muscles. The reason for this is that your torn muscles should be allowed time to mend and build themselves up.
Importance of Sleeping:
Another factor you must take into consideration is the amount of sleep you get. This is the time when your body does most of its repair work on the muscles your tore up during your intense workouts. Make sure to get at least 8 hours of sleep (5 of which is uninterrupted), preferably the best hours before midnight.
Keeping yourself Hydrated:
Drinking lots of liquid is important since this helps with different bodily functions such as flexibility and water repair.
