We will move on to showing you further steps, naturally, but for now the first five steps should keep you more than busy!
Before we wrap up today's write-up, let's take a quick look at some of the principles to ensure you have no gray areas...
Most people assume that to get bigger you can just eat whatever you want. You should only do that if you're not bothered what type of size you're adding. If you want to stay lean as you grow, which most guys do, you need to set up a few basic diet rules to begin with. Multiply your target body weight, in pounds, by fifteen and this will give you a ball park figure to aim for each day.
You can spend a fortune in the supplement market each month if you're not careful. Every product claims to be necessary. The key word to remember is supplement. It should never replace nutrition from your diet, so keep your tubs to an absolute minimum to avoid confusion and unnecessary spending. Whey protein and creatine monohydrate are a solid combination which have stood the test of time, making them the perfect starting blocks.
Next you have to build your workout plan. Again, this is a lot easier than most people end up making it out to be. Keep the main focus, in terms of exercises, on the big compound movements which make it far easier to build muscle mass and strength. So you should be performing Bench Presses, Squats, Deadlifts and so on. As for reps you just need to ensure you fall into the hypertrophy zone, which means each set calls for 8-12 repetitions. If you feel like you could blast past 12 increase the weight for the following set.
Suddenly you find yourself armed with the knowledge most gym members lack. Before long you'll probably be telling others the principles of how to build muscle effectively. We will publish more articles in future which also look at more principles to use in the gym but for now get a good understanding of the five revealed above.
