Still trying to gain muscle mass?

If you are looking to bulk up and quickly gain muscle mass, then it is important to focus on your fitness goals, with emphasis on weight training.

If you're looking to gain muscle mass right away, then the first thing that you need to do is pick up some weights! This may seem like a simple option, but this is exactly what you need to get serious muscle mass right away. The thing for you to do is to alternate your weightlifting by the amount of reps that you do. Many people do train by doing four sets of one exercise, with ten reps per set.

Just to make sure you understand, a rep is one movement of an exercise. So, if we are talking about pull downs, then one rep would be one pull down. An entire set would be ten bicep curls. What you need to do to challenge your muscles and get dramatic results is to increase the weight week by week so that you are maxing yourself out.

Sound too easy? I assure you that it is not, and it helps you to increase the weight every week and reduce the reps that you are doing. You can still do your exercises in four sets, but in week one, you should be doing ten reps of each exercise. You can then increase your weight, and then in week two, you will be doing eight reps of each exercise. Increase your weight again, and in week three, you will be doing six reps of each exercise. See how it works? This makes sure your muscles never get used to any exercise which means it's incredibly effective.


It is very easy for your body to get used to a particular exercise in your fitness routine and hit a wall. This is what happens to so many people when they are looking for dramatic weight loss and muscle building results because they feel like they should be able to endlessly gain muscle mass. This is not an instant process, but it is something that you need to consider in a weekly plan, such as the one that I just outlined.

Furthermore, you should definitely be upping your protein intake if you are focused on increasing muscle mass. You should also be eating a high-protein meal immediately after lifting weights because this is the time that your body is in high calorie burn and needs protein fast. This is also almost a bonus meal for you because whatever you are eating directly after working out will be instantly torched because your body is metabolizing and burning so many calories during that time. Soon after your workout I would recommend that you should to eat a meal that is high in lean protein and focused on a fatty fish, like salmon, with a side of complex carbohydrate like whole wheat pasta. This will give you exactly what you need to recover from a workout, and this combination of food is also perfect for muscle building.


When you know what your fitness and dietary goals should be then it becomes much easier for you to gain muscle mass.
