A while ago, when I was searching for the ideal muscle building program, I remember opening one of those fitness magazines at the convenience stores. My initial reaction was being pumped, as I too, could be just like one of those people in the magazine without too much effort. I'm certain I wasn't alone when I decided to improve my health and lifestyle when I viewed one of those magazines. Unfortunately, it was much easy to wish it than actually do it.
Pursuing their muscle building journeys, for most, begins with loads of excitement and enthusiasm. A couple of weeks will be enough for doing weight exercises and pushups, and the perfect body will be achieved, right? This doesn't ever work out the way we want to. The thing is that magazines wont inform you of the hard work and dedication that those models put in to getting their bodies.
What it takes is the right program, one that's workable and proven. The plan I've outlined below is sort of simple to follow, but extremely vigorous. I've lost, however, lots of body fat with it while gaining lots of muscle as well.
This describes the five days that I, weekly, did exercises on, and what kinds I did, focusing on one workout a day.
First Day of Five: I do pushups as well as pull-ups. Second Day of Five: I do either plyometrics or core workouts. Third Day of Five: I focus on shoulder and arm development.Fourth Day of Five: My main focus is Kempo Fifth Day of Five: I focus on leg and back development.
I could have easily chosen to go to the gym, but I stayed home, while doing hour-long workouts, with sufficient rest in between. A set of two 35-pound dumbbells, a pull-up bar and a yoga mat is all that I have for equipment, but it suffices for me, so I'm okay with being a minimalist. The bodys weight will usually serve as resistance for the exercises I perform.
This program worked perfectly for me, and so it can work for you as well, without a doubt. You aren't in need of a gym subscription or fancy equipment to gain muscle mass; what you need is hard work and a proper plan, and you'll be successful.
