Muscle Building Tips for Beginners, Common Mistakes to Avoid

By Ricardo d Argence

There are many techniques and routines that you can use to build your muscle mass, if indeed you perform them properly while paying attention to your daily food and water intake. Of course, you also have to make sure that you are taking proper care of yourself and you muscles by resting and recovering from all your hard work.

These overall principles are important but it's also important to take a close look at some of the ways that people slip up so you can learn how to avoid them, stay injury free and reach your goals. These typical downfalls include:

- Having No Bodybuilding Plan of Action: You should never begin your bodybuilding training exercise without a plan. One of the first things that you should do is purchase a notebook or journal and a good pen. Keep this training journal handy and up to date. Make it yours by sectioning it out for various subjects such as:

A personal assessment of where your body currently is, goals of where you're trying to get your body and the training strategy for how you are going to bridge the gap.

Strategy Planning " You'll need to plan the steps involved and implementing your training strategy to reach your goal.

Measuring Results - Keeping up with your measurements allows you to see yourself moving towards your goals as well as knowing when you have reached your goals

Additionally, if you use a calendar and a planned series of workouts you're much less likely to miss any sessions, which will keep you on track towards seeing muscle building success.

-Making Poor Eating Decisions: To help avoid poor eating decisions either keep track of your diet in your journal or use a separate notebook to cover everything you eat and drink. It's important to adequately fuel your body with protein at the right times, and it's also important not to overeat. Keeping track will enable you to walk that fine line.

-Wasting Money on Supplements or Drugs: By and large, the majority of supplements and over the counter drugs out there do not live up to the claims that they make. Illegal drugs such as steroids are extremely harmful for your body and of course can land you in trouble with the law. Avoid all of these things and save yourself the money and hassle.

-Doing the Same Workout Every Time: If you do the same workout every single week your body and your muscles are going to adapt and you won't be able to see the results that you are looking. Be sure to add in variation and challenge your muscles to grow larger.

To stimulate your muscles into growing you have to make changes in your workout plan so they don't get complacent. You should try things such as progressive overload, where each workout you add more weight and reps to your previous best to constantly push the limit. You can add additional sets to your workout, change the order you train in and try different exercises. Anything you do to add variation into your workout is going to help you achieve far improved results over the same, boring old workout.

-Failing to Rest and Recover: The bottom line is that your muscles need time to repair and be built anew. You need to get a good deal of sleep and your muscles need breaks in between workouts. - 17269
