You may have been body building for a while now and are dedicated to doing it right. If you are, here are a few important body building tips that can seriously make a difference to how you train. When you work with weights remember to keep lifting more weight with the passing of time. This will make a significant different to the rate of muscle gain. No matter what techniques you use, the more weight you lift with time, the better your gain is going to be. Only when you feel you are unable to lift additional weight should you try other tactics like drop sets or super sets. Make increasing weights a priority.
Many body builders work on the notion that you work each rep to the point o
f failure. That means you lift weights or continue with an exercise till you can do it no more. This is believed to push the muscles to grow. The notion is however wrong. When you exhaust yourself at every rep you can lead your body to nervous system breakdown. After a few weeks of pushing yourself this way you will find that you are just not able to do anything. What you should do rather is aim at reps that are one or two steps short of failure. This means that you will be pushing your body to do more, but giving it space to heal and build.
When you are working on your body building, it is important that you work on compound exercises. This is because you have a short time at the gym each day - you need to give your body time to recuperate, so you cannot waste it in exercising only one at a time. Follow the rule of thumb that your exercise routine covers 80 percent at one time. Some exercises that will help is the shoulder press as well as squats and bench presses which work on the shoulders, your chest as well as your triceps.
What you eat is also equally important and you need to give your body the right nutrition before and after your exercise routine. If you do not give your body the necessary amino acids and carbs, then your body will not be able to process new muscle and you will not see any development in your muscles.
Make sure that you change your exercise routine every three week so that your body is rhythmically exercised in its entirety. Also you need to get a good amount of sleep each day.
