Muscle Building Tips - Comprehensive Exercises Are Best

By Dave Vower

Building Muscle Tips - A Wide Range Of Movement Is Better

What kinds of exercises should we do to build muscle? You wanna learn to kick harder? Is bench press going to do the job? Nope, not likely! Hey, bench is good exercise, but it's not going to get you a black belt. What sort of exercises do we need to do if we're trying to get bigger muscles?

Let's think about it. What should we do if the goal is to gain muscle and put on some solid weight? The best exercises are called comprehensive exercises. Why waste time doing lots of small ones when we can get better results with one big exercise right?

It takes about a 1 hours time (probably closer to 45 minutes) to warm up, workout and cool down before our body starts turning against itself. The last thing we want is our body burning muscle fibers for energy. So keep the workout short, and intense so we can get as much done as possible in this short time. What's the secret? The comprehensive exercise.

The Best Exercise List

These are the best exercises you can do to to work out and gain muscle fast. When you do these movements, instead of smaller movements, you'll workout your whole body in less time and make better gains.

# Full Standing Squats

# Flat Bench

# Stiff Leg Deadlifts

# Military Press

# Bent Rows

# Chin Ups (Cant do chins? Do Lat Pull Downs)

# Full Body Dips (if you can't do dips do Decline Dumbell Bench Press with your hands facing each other)

These last two exercises are optional because the other exercises are so comprehensive that you've already worked out your entire body! Do them if you've still got time and energy during your workouts.

Do 3 workouts each week, and try to do squats every workout. They're the foundation of a strong body. They're the largest muscles in your body. And working them out often will stimulate your body to produce muscle growth hormones more intensely.

On that note: WORK HARD! These exercises work, if you work them. Don't change them, do them as described and you'll get results. Work out hard and keep at it. In a few weeks you'll notice the results. That's when you know you're about to get REALLY BIG MUSCLES! Do about 5-7 heavy reps, and do no more than 3 sets each. Lift as much weight as you can and get someone to spot for you. You're the one who must do the work.

Want to know the biggest secret in bodybuilding? Supplements are a scam, it's HARD WORK that gets results. Work your body with big heavy exercises, and you'll get big gains. If you want the best results get a fitness coach to motivate you. There's no substitute for the advice of someone's who's been there before. - 15343
