How to Gain Weight and Muscle - Only For Serious Lifters
There is a TON of conflicting information on the internet these days when it comes to gaining muscle.
One website will tell you to simply stuff your face and work out once a week while another will tell you to work out every day.
Here is how to gain the muscle you want...
fast.
How to Gain Weight and Muscle - Only For Serious Lifters 1.
The Magic Number This is a fact that many men don't know with regards to working out...
At the 47 minute mark of intensive exercise the body begins to release a mixture of cortisol (a stress hormone) and adrenaline.
At this point your potential for muscle gains decreases drastically with every extra set you do thereafter.
Why am I telling you this? You need to change your thinking.
Spending hours in the gym is not going to get you the results you desire.
In fact it is actually hindering your results.
For this reason be sure to keep your workouts under 47 minutes.
Many of you may think this is just not enough time for a good workout.
The solution? Work out HARD.
Every single workout should be an absolute battle for your body.
You are not going to get any significant results by taking it easy on yourself (unless you don't mind waiting a while).
2.
Entire Body Work out your entire body.
Forget about doing split body workouts where you work the upper body one day and then the lower body the next.
Many athletic studies have now proven that working your entire body at the same time stimulates higher testosterone levels in your body.
We all know how important testosterone is in the muscle building process.
Take full advantage of your weight gaining potential and have full body workouts instead.
Since you are going to be giving yourself very strenuous workouts, be sure to extend your recovery time.
Don't forget about all those extra calories either.
