Body Building, Weight Training Program for Beginners

By Ricardo d Argence

Are you moving poundages on your squat, deadlift, bench press, row (and every other major compound exercise) that all feel substantially heavy for your body? Are your clothes fitting significantly tighter? Are you generally beginning to gain a reputation as a muscular guy that people aspire to look like?

If you didn't easily answer "yes" to all of the questions I just outlined above, then worrying about the smaller details of your physique is quite simply a waste of time at this point.

If you're still in "youth" bodybuilding stage and the muscle mass, does not grow despite your efforts, then take these kinds of queries and take it out of your mind until you do.

What is the reason? Don't let trivial matters divert your attention from your immediate and important task. What is the crucial thing to accomplish at this time? The goal is to place as much muscle and strength on your body as possible.

Although it might be difficult, it is important for you to look past comparisons between your biceps and your triceps and whether your front looks as bold as your back. While additional issues may arise, there is no point in concerning yourself with them until you have sufficiently and significantly thickened up your whole body.

If you're still a beginner and have been training consistently for less than a year, then stop obsessing over the details. Instead, place all of your focus on the most basic and obvious issues at hand. Get yourself onto a sensible, rational weight training schedule and stick to it religiously.

Write down every single workout that you perform and place every ounce of energy you can muster on adding as much weight to the bar on a consistent basis as you possibly can. Grind out all of the biggest, most difficult compound exercises and blast through those discomfort zones with passion and intensity.

Go to your kitchen and eat as many as six well balanced meals full of muscle building foods each day for a year.

Drink your water, get your rest and take your supplements whenever necessary. In other words: PAY YOUR DUES FIRST!

If you plan to be in this for a long time (and you should be, as there are no temporary fixes to be had here), this will get you on the most efficient path. The best way in which to proceed is usually to begin with the basics and then get more detailed later.

You should bring this kind of mentality to your bodybuilding program. Developing your body is a progressive, step-by-step process: you shouldn't try to fine-tune your physique without first developing adequate foundational muscle, just as you wouldn't try to perform a guitar solo without first knowing the basic chords.

Building muscle does not require a degree in rocket-science but it does require consistent willpower and determination. It's not until you've dug deep enough within yourself that you will have the benefits of a drastically improved and impressively-muscular body. Stop obsessing. Go to the gym and start your workout! - 26706
