Muscle Building Guide For Men's (GUARANTEED GAINS!) By Size up Apparels

 

What's up, guys? Today we're talking about building muscle,

and we're going to keep it basic, guys. I'm going to make this the most helpful Blog

you've ever seen on this topic and it might throw a few curveballs your way. I'm going to tell you right now, everything

that we do in this Blog is going to revolve around one thing. That is intensity. Not just what you might think it is, but also

how intensely focused you are on that goal, and how you're going to get there. Let me just clarify right off the bat that

that, but more importantly like I said in the opening, how intensely focused you are

on the goal that you're saying you are. If you're trying to build muscle here, and

that is what your goal is, how committed are you to it? It starts with a plan because if you don’t

have that you're not getting there.

 

I can guarantee you that. Think about how many times you've seen people

who walk into the gym, they accidentally think that just by swiping that gym card they've

somehow earned their man card. "I did it. I showed up. I'm building muscle." No, you're not. You haven't done anything yet. You've just shown up. When you go to the gym you have to have some

sort of plan for that day, and how it's going to get you closer to that goal. Then how it relates in the bigger picture

to where you're going from there.

How does that single workout set you up for

the next one? You see, far too many times I see people walk

into the gym and they're doing what they like to call "instinctive training". Instinctive training doesn't mean "I'm going

to do this machine because it's next to this machine." Realizing that this is an abductor machine

for my thighs, and this is a bicep curl machine. Sure, you might be on that Buns and Guns program

– or whatever it is that you're following at the moment – and maybe it's justified

in that case, but most of the time they're not. They're just walking around the gym doing

whatever is close to each other, with no real plan. That's instinctive, but not in a good way.

 

Or they're like "Well, I know better than that, I'll just do back exercises. I'm going to do a pull-down, I'm going to do pull-ups. They're all back exercises so I'm

approaching this very scientifically." Maybe not because what you're looking at here

is doing a bunch of vertical point exercises. Where are you working in your horizontal plane? Where are you changing the planes around? Are you just overlapping strength

curves? Should you be mixing in cables with dumbbells? Because you can get strength curves that are going to complement each other. So there's more to it than that, and if your

goal here is hypertrophy, you also have to understand that there is an element of strength

that needs to lay at the base of that.

You can't just come in – look, I know maybe

you've seen an exercise I've done on this channel that looked appealing, it looked creative,

it looked fun, you wanted to try it out, but there's got to be more to it than that. You have to be willing to commit to the basics. The compound movements. Relying on progressive overload to build that

foundation of strength because you're going to need the strength to ultimately help you

get as big as possible. But we know that there are elements here that

people overlook all the time because they don’t have a plan. You need to have a plan, and everything starts

from there. So the plan is in place now, but now you have to do something. This is where the second big focus comes in.

 

That is your effort. What are you doing? How much effort are you exerting when you

go to pick up the weights? This is your biggest opportunity because if

you blow this I'll tell you, you're not going to grow. Here's what I'm talking about. I'm going to show you in action what

it looks like. This is me just doing a set of an inclined

dumbbell bench-press. I want you to see what it's actually like

as I approach a set. I didn't go into this set thinking there's

a specific number I have to hit because right off that bat, throw the numbers out the window. The numbers are there for a guideline.

 

 

The hypertrophy range is in the 10 to 12 rep range. It could go 7, 8, 9. People can grow muscle on any of those ranges if the effort level is there. But in the generally accepted range of 10 to 12, how are you approaching this? Are you stopping just because you hit a number? That's a major mistake. Instead, let your effort guide you. Push as hard as you can. Try to accomplish something in this set that

you've never accomplished before, if possible. I realize that's not always necessary. Some people are going to stay "Well, what if I want to train for volume? If I'm training for volume here I'm going to be doing some maximal training."So every set is going to be some max and then we'll leave some in the tank. Let me tell you this about volume training,

guys. If the accrual, the addition, the added effect of all of those submaximal sets isn't in, and of itself, a stressor, or a stimulus for growth, then guess what? All you're doing is a bunch of shitty warm-up sets. You need to have that accrual of all that volume to become a stressor if it's going to provide the intensity needed to create an overload. So, guys, you need to bring whatever it is that you're training for. Bring that effort and intensity to every,

single thing you do and that is when you'll start to see those noticeable changes from your hard work. So I left you hanging there at the end of that last set for a reason. I wasn't finished. It looked like I might have been done, but

not quite so fast. What I do is add set intensifiers. For me, I am really on the rest-pause technique

here. Something that allows me to rest for a brief moment to recoup, to regroup, to get back a little bit of strength so I can push through another couple of reps. Every, single, additional rep that I can week out, every bit of extra effort that I can put out in this set is going to be a stimulus

for overload. It doesn't just have to be this. It can be a superset. It can be a drop set. There are a lot of other techniques that you

can use, but I really, highly encourage you to not just quit when you think it's over

because you'll be surprised at how much your

The body is holding back. Your mind is way stronger than what your body

is willing to give it. For once, let your mind be in charge. Let it say "You know what,? Get your ass back on the bench and give me

another couple of reps." You'll be surprised at what will come out

of your body. I can guarantee you this: more reps. So use these set intensifier techniques if

you want to see more from your workouts. So you have the plan, you exerted the effort,

you went the extra mile here with the set intensifiers, and the set is over. Now, what happens? Well, if you're doing it the right way you're going to respect your rest, or you're going

To do this. You're going to take out your phone and start looking for what's going on with Instagram, or maybe checking out what's going on with

Facebook, or maybe even – if you're going to do a YouTube link, you're going to my channel,

I hope – and you're looking for a Blog there. But that's not what you want to do when you're

training. Instead, the only thing you should be taking

this phone out for is to set the timer and make sure that you're getting your ass back

on the bench again to do the next set exactly when the timer tells you to. If you're training for hypertrophy, I always

like to say you can train hard, or you can train long; but you can't do both. If you're training for hypertrophy get yourself

back in there with 60 to 90 seconds of rest.

You'll be surprised – for those guys that

like to go on the phone – how fast that comes around. I want you prepared, and ready for the next set so when the timer hits you're going into the next set. That's a very short period if you start to hold yourself accountable for that. If you're training for strength, on the other side of the coin, you might be trying to extend those rest periods. More like 3 to 5 minutes, neurologically allowing your body to recover, and regroup so you can come back and attack that next set of your 1 to 3 rep max with a lot more intensity. But don’t train for hypertrophy and rest for strength. And don’t train for strength and rest for hypertrophy.

You have to have just as much of a plan for

your rest as you did for your work set, as you did for your overall workout. It's all part of the equation. Okay, last but not least – not by a long

shot – if you're a natural lifter, and you're trying to build muscle when it comes to learning

the basics here you must respect your recovery. Just as much, if not more, than everything

else you did up to this point because you can get it almost all right, but if you screw

up your recovery you're never going to build muscle. It's just like the guy who walks over the

tight rope, he holds that balance beam, he's doing great. Except when he gets right to about, maybe

90% of the way there, if he falls off, guess what he is?

He's dead. Not close. He's dead. You need to approach your recovery the very

same way. That means you need to take seriously your

sleep, your nutrition, your supplementation, your management of your stress levels;

all the things that will dramatically impact your ability to either recover from

your training or not recover from your training at all. Just because it's the part that's inactive,

the part where you're not doing the pushing, or the pulling, or the squatting; the stuff

that seems boring is just as impactful on the overall picture as that element of your

training. So guys, make sure you're getting your recovery

right.

Muscle Building Diet | Full Day of Eating

Exercise Is Not Everything It Doesn’t Matter What is Your Fitness Gold You Should Eat Well When You’re Building Muscle Or Doing Fat Loss The topic for todays’ Blog is ‘full day diet plan for muscle building’ In this Blog I will be sharing all the meals you should be eating throughout the day for muscle building Including breakfast, lunch, dinner and pre-post workout meals Lets’ start our Blog First we will talk about how you should begin your day Many people drink lukewarm water in the morning which is a good thing But here I am adding 1 tsp sugar and 2 pinches of salt The reason for this is that it will keep your muscles hydrated throughout the day and along with that it will improve your digestive system Along with this you can eat handful of almonds and walnuts And after 30 minutes to 1 hour you can have your breakfast Firstly I would like to inform you all that I am no nutritionist

 

Breakfast meal -

But I do have an experience of 20 years and accordingly I can suggest what to eat for meals during the day if you are looking to put on some muscle First meal of the day is breakfast In this you can eat white oats I have taken 40 gm white oats here, boiled in plain water and I have added salt and cinnamon to it Second item is sapota (chikoo), do eat it in your breakfast For protein source we are eating 8 eggs here in which 2 are whole and 6 are egg whites only Along with this you can eat a sandwich made with brown bread and the filling inside is made of approx. 100 grams mashed potato This is a complete meal inclusive of protein, complex carbohydrates and fats This will help you stay energetic throughout the day 2-2.5 hours after your breakfast you should eat a post breakfast meal One thing you need to keep in mind is that in the name of caloric surplus you cannot eat anything and everything You need to keep the quality and quantity in check.

A lot of people prefer brown rice as well, you can eat that too but I eat white rice as it is easy to digest Take 1 bowl of moong dal and 1 quarter plate of salad along with it for sure Because it is a muscle building diet you need to maintain protein and carbs balance properly If you want to know the calorie calculation, it is very simple too 50% of your calories should come from carbohydrates, 35% of calories should be from proteins and 15% calories should come from fat. Now let us move towards our next meal

 It is a very important meal and for this you can eat 1 bowl of curd, add approx. 150gm of boiled potatoes to it I will add some salt to it for taste and mix it well Along with this I will eat 6 boiled egg whites as my protein source This is a great meal for pre-workout but you need to make sure that you eat it at least 2 hours before your workout Because only then it will digest properly and can provide you energy for your workout After workout we will eat our post workout meal.

Post Workout Meal -

In which the first thing you need to consume is whey protein in 200ml of water You can take either isolate or concentrate according to your preference Along with that you can eat 250gm of sweet potato and 1 banana If you can carry this meal with you to the gym, well and good Because you need to eat this meal within 15-20 minutes after your workout Only then the muscle breakdown which happens during the workout can start repairing 1 hour after your workout you will do your omega meal A lot of you might be wondering what an omega meal is In this meal you will consume good fat 5 ml of MCT oil, 2 gm of fish oil and 2 gm CLA As you need to intake 15% of your calories from fat, to fulfil the daily requirement I have added this meal here
