Getting into Shape without the Expense

By Ricardo d Argence

You've probably taken notice of the colorful and usually ridiculous commercials that claim to have a product that can give you the muscle mass you want in a rather short amount of time. Such products do not normally work. What they will do however is hurt your body and even deplete your wallet if given a chance.

Instead, try utilizing the effective and cost-free method outlined in this article. With the knowledge of how your workout routine should be orchestrated, you have all the tools you need to build a great physique.

First of all, you need to decide on what type of physique you actually want. Perhaps you want to look completely ripped like Arnold Schwarzenegger, or maybe you want to be a little smaller with a hint of muscle. Maybe you want to be somewhere in between? Believe it or not, most men do not want to be huge, but they do want to be muscular.

Accent on muscle tone: First you must build the muscle before you focus on toning it. After all, what good will entering a rigorous cardiovascular program do if you have no muscle mass to refine? Begin with a similar workout routine to someone seeking to build large muscle mass at first, soon shifting to an entirely different regiment.

Make sure that you keep on with your cardiovascular training. This will help you to keep your slender physique, and lower that body fat. When you start, warm up with ten repetitions of the first exercise that you would do with each muscle group. Warming up is very important!

Perform 6-8 reps with four sets per exercise. The following should be worked on the same day: 1. Chest and Triceps, 2. Back and Biceps, 3. Legs and Shoulders

Perform 3 or 4 exercises in each major muscle category. Biceps and triceps require less work than chest and back when worked on the same day (as they should be), as working back also works your biceps, and working chest also works your triceps. Maintain this regimentation until you begin to build a muscular base.

Big lifts are something that you would benefit from, so start adding them into your routine. For example you can do squats, bench presses, deadlifts, among other things. These are great ways to build up your muscles, and are worth a try.

There will come a time when you finally have the muscle that you have always dreamed of. But it's not time to quit! Now you need to increase the number of repetitions you do! An ideal number would be an additional eight to twelve. In addition to this you should increase your cardiovascular exercises, and in doing so you will increase your muscle tone. Diet is also very important, and you should bear this in mind as your exercise.

Accent on muscle mass: Similar to the start of the previous exercise campaign, you should begin with performing 6-8 reps in the same muscle group layout as listed previously. The main difference is that you will not be incorporating higher repetitions into your regiment, but you will be incorporating less repetitions into your campaign. For example, vary it up from 6-8 reps to 2-4 reps, changing what your muscles are used to, and therefore increasing your body's response.

Later you will start to increase the weights you are using. As you do, you will get closer and closer to the level of fitness that you are seeking. Your muscles will be experiencing things they never thought possible, and your muscle size will increase. At least they will as long as you follow the directions.

You need to make sure that each and every one of the exercises is performed right. If you do not, then you might not just hurt yourself, you might end up doing absolutely nothing for your body. Make sure you know how to do the exercises. Make sure you do them safely, and overall, make sure you are building the muscle you've always dreamed of. - 17269
