How To Choose Exercises To Create A Body Building Program

If you want to transform your skinny body into a huge mass of muscle then you need to learn how to make your workout more effective so you get quick results. Here are seven body building tips that will help you meet your goal.

Choosing exercises. When you want to bulk up your muscles fast, you should avoid using exercise machines. Instead, use free weights or even your own body as resistance. That way you take advantage of full range of motion that is needed to strengthen your muscles and joints. Be sure to lift the heaviest weight you can manage.

Number of sets per workout. Less sets of higher weight is the most effective, especially for beginners. You should aim for a maximum of 12 to 16 sets. This type of low volume training helps you to recover from your workouts faster with less soreness. You can avoid overtraining which allows your muscles to grow faster.

Number of sets per exercise. Beginners at body building should aim for three to five sets of each exercise in order to stimulate muscle growth. After your muscles have developed, you can drop down to one to three sets of high intensity exercise.

Number of reps per set. When you start out with body building, you should use the heaviest weight you can manage and do five to eight reps per set. This will put heavy stress on your muscles and cause them to grow faster. A routine body building workout is more likely to include eight to twelve reps each, once your muscles have become established.

Speed of reps. Skinny guys should do quick reps as long as good form is maintained and the motion is not jerky. This means to allow around a second for lifting and two seconds for lowering. Many body building programs promote slow deliberate motion but that does not seem to be as effective for the beginner that has little muscle to work with.

Resting between sets. Body building beginners should allow 45 to 90 seconds for resting between sets. This is much shorter than the rest time recommended for body builders who already have big muscle mass. As your muscles grow in size and your endurance and strength improves, you should allow at least two to four minutes between sets for recovery.

Training session time. The ideal training time is 30 to 45 minutes. That is all that is required for testosterone to build to peak levels. If you exercise longer than that, cortisol will work against you and tear down muscle tissue.
