By Russ Howe


After three to four months of a workout program you will usually hit a plateau. Today we are going to explain how to build muscle effectively and continuously, bursting through that plateau and pushing yourself to a new personal best.

The easy part of building a more muscular physique is realizing you need to work out. Sadly, that's as far as most people get in terms of research and knowledge. There are a few other things which you will need to do to maximize results for yourself and today we will reveal them to you.

There are numerous ways to build a better body, make no mistake about it, it is this huge variety which leads to a lot of people getting a bit lost. They'll have everybody around them telling them they need to do completely different things and in the end they go nowhere. Get ready to go back to basics for maximum results.

When it comes to building programs there are a few questions which pop up a lot more than any others. Those are listed for you below...

* How many reps is best for a strength and size goal?

* What should you eat?

* Do you need to train every day or not?

The optimal zone for stimulating lean tissue growth is between eight and twelve reps for most exercises. This means you do not need to spend the countless high repetition sets on most exercises, particularly your big compound lifts, so make the most of this knowledge and begin applying it right now. You should see results from this method very quickly.

If you have already been achieving the right reps you should also try incorporating proven building techniques like super sets and drop sets.

A big problem with many fitness enthusiasts is diet. Do you really know what you should be eating? For most people the answer is no. Don't worry though, the basics are covered below.

Eating the right type of food will determine what type of size you add. You can't expect to get big and stay lean if you are feasting on junk foods. Remember it's not just about how many calories you consume, it's also about where those calories come from.

A simple yet effective way to ensure you get the right split between protein, carbohydrate and fat is to use the 3-5-2 technique. This means 30% of your calories should come from protein sources, 50% from carbohydrate and finally 20% from fat.

Rest is the final part we want to go over today. Once you begin enjoying your training and seeing results you will find it hard to resist the urge to train whenever and wherever possible. The main problem with this is you can hold yourself back slightly by not allowing your muscles the time to recuperate. Days off are not just useful, they are recommended.

These are three of the most important steps teaching you how to build muscle and retain it. Each of the steps is backed up with scientific research and if you are able to incorporate them into your current routine you will notice increased results.
