Alright let me tell you exactly how to get big muscles. First you are going to need a set of weights so have a gym membership or home gym is essential. Secondly you will need to eat proper amounts of protein and carbohydrates. Thirdly you will need to push yourself to the limits. If you want big muscles you should combine compound exercises with isolation, and isometric exercises. For example you should do squats then follow that with calve raises this will make you calves bigger and stronger than just doing them on there own. Another example is doing super-sets or drop sets. When is comes to size of a muscle you must push for failure at least on the last set and hold it for 10 seconds. You want to keep the weight at a range of 8-12 reps, that way you can really feel the muscle burn; you will gain strength, power and big muscles. When you only do 5 reps of less you are only working strength and your central nervous system, but you will not feel a burn in you muscles because the weight is to heavy to do enough reps to make your muscles grow bigger, that what you want. Working out 3-5 days a week is enough to get bigger muscles. Here are some great exercises to get big muscles: Bench Press, Dead Lift, Squat, Military Press, Flys, Leg Extensions, Hamstring Curls, Leg Press, Arm Curls, Weighted Dips, Negatives, Cable Row, Cable Pull Down, Shoulder Shrugs. Also keep you abs and core strong and lean, it will make the rest of your muscles pop out and you will look bigger and will be able to lift heavier. So lets rap it up, to get big muscles you need access to weights or a gym. You need to eat at least 20-40 grams of Protein and 30-50 grams carbohydrates per meal every few hours to continue to grow. Next you will need to lift between 8-12 reps per set to feel the muscles working and burning, this will stimulate growth. Finally you need to rest and recover to allow further growth and preparation for your next workout. |
