If you are interested in building muscle and creating more strength, you need to begin with the use of a treadmill, and other strength building exercises. Start with a regular treadmill running program, to reduce fat.
Muscle building is not easy. If it was, everyone you know would be 250 lbs of pure muscle.
Muscle building takes time and effort, and if you are not willing to dedicate your time and put in extreme amounts of effort, then you are wasting your time. However, if you fully understand the amount of dedication that is needed, then read on and let's get down to business.
Muscle building requires 3 steps. The most important step is the weightlifting, which must be done correctly.
This includes your workout routines and programs, as well as the actual exercises that you do. Your workout routine must allow your entire body to get the best workout it can (so that you are not over-training), and you must do the most effective muscle building exercises.
There are tons of different exercises and machines for each muscle group, but there are just four that have the greatest effect. These four exercises are your "compound" movements.
The most effective exercises are compound movements. Compound movements are exercises that require your body to use more than one muscle.
For example, bicep curls will only require your body to use your biceps. This is known as an isolation exercise.
The bench press, which mainly requires the use of your chest, but secondarily requires your triceps and shoulders, is a compound movement. Including the bench press, there are four weightlifting exercises that must be included in your workout routines.
The four biggest, most effective, muscle building exercises are Squats, Deadlifts, the Bench Press, and the Military Press. All four are compound movements and all four are extremely important to your workout.
The main exercise of your chest workout should be the bench press, the main exercise of your leg workout should be squats, the main exercise of your back workout should be deadlifts and the main exercise of your shoulder workout should be the military press. Dumbbell flys, which works the chest, leg extensions which works the legs, lat pulldowns which works the back and lateral raises which works the shoulders are all fine exercises.
Muscle building step number two is your diet. Diets are just as important as the actual weightlifting, because if you aren't eating to grow, then you will not grow.
You have to eat big, to lift big, to get big. Say that over and over again to yourself until you fully understand it.
Some of the diet basics are eating at least one gram of protein per pound of bodyweight every day whether you worked out that day or not. Protein is the building block of muscle.
If you can't get at least one gram of protein per pound every day from real food, then use a whey protein supplement like powder and bars. Most people use them.
Eating very little (if any) saturated fat is important as well. You want to get big, but you don't want to get fat.
Also, stay away from the rest of the junk food like cookies, candy, cake, anything high in sugar, soda, fast food, fried food, etc. and make sure you are eating enough calories! You have to eat big to get big, remember?
Building step number three is "everything else." This includes overtraining and giving your body enough time to rest and recover from your workouts.
Keep your treadmill workout regular, and steady. Over-training can be just as bad as not training at all.
This step also includes motivation and dedication. If you aren't consistent, then you are wasting your time.
You must stay dedicated and stay motivated. The results won't come easy, and they won't come very fast either, so stay dedicated, and stay consistent, and do all three steps correctly, and the muscle building results will come!
If you can do your best to stay dedicated, you will see the changes in your body right away. Remember, consistency is the key.
