To add muscle and get huge you must fatigue the muscle then feed it. Weight gain and is that simple. For the pro bodybuilder they do the same thing but there are a few other considerstions they must take into account.
If you want to be a bodybuilder and gain more muscle watch your rest intervals, exercise order, reps, and food intake. Hard work and consistency will get results.
Thes tips are not for the powerlifter, they are for bodybuilders, and people woh want to gain weight and pack on muscle.
- Rest between sets - Keep your rest low around at 45-60 seconds. This will give your muscles enough time to build up energy stores to do a few more reps but still keep them fatigued.
- Work groups heavy to light - Always train biggest muscle groups first, the muscles you can lift the most weight with. The bigger muscle groups are supported by the smaller ones, which will fatigue faster. If the supportng muscles are trained first the bigger muscles will not be able to handel the same workload as they would fresh.
- Shoulders should never be trained before the chest or back and the triceps should never be trained before the chest or shoulders.
- The biceps should never be trained before the back, and the calves should never be trained before the thighs.
- Never train abdominals before exercises that require core stability (squats, lunges, shoulder press, power cleans)
- For faster results, use mostly compound exercises. Compound exercises are those that require the movement of more than one joint. This means that it uses more than one muscle group so more energy is burnt, and more muscle fibres can be hit within the one exercise. They enable you to lift more weight so strength increases come faster as well.
- Change does the body good - Change your program every 3 -6 weeks. The body gets use to seercies quickly and what once was hard becomes easy. The change does not have to be big but it does need to be changed.
- Balance - Make sure your program is balanced. Legs match upper body, work you back to get a stronger chest. To make your arms look big work you tri's.
