We are here to teach you five simple steps to building muscle safely and effectively. Your frustrations with your slow progress in the gym are over. Pay attention carefully to what I’m about to share.

There is a possibility that you are not using one of these four steps to your maximum potential. You need to correct these essential steps before you can have any chance of building a great muscular and lean physique.

Be prepared to learn how to build muscle in four simple to do steps with less time. The good part is we show you how to do it without drugs or ineffective supplements.

Step #1

Your goal should be to stimulate your muscles with resistance or stress. Try committing to lifting weights at least three to four times per week. This will result in your muscles growing bigger to avoid stress from occurring again. Then you let your muscles heal through nutrition and rest. It will grow bigger and you will repeat the same process again. You want to hi your muscles once every 72 hours so you can perform 2 upper body workouts per week and 2 lower body workouts per week.

Step #2

Focus on eating at least 5-7x a day with balanced meals from carbohydrates, proteins and fats. If your goal is to build muscle than you should be eating at least 15-18 x your current body weight. Your carbohydrates should equate about 45% of your intake, your proteins should equate about 35% of your intake and your fat should be the remaining 20% of your intake. You should focus on over half of those meals being solid whole food meals and the remainder can be liquid meal replacement shakes.

Step #3

The biggest mistakes seen in the gym are people training and training with out any stretching. Stretching helps to restore normal length to the tissue and reduce the incidence of injuries. If you are training 4 hours in the week, an additional 2 hours should be dedicated to stretching. Make sure to balance the shortening of the muscle tissues that occurs with weight training or else you will become injury prone.

Step #4

Avoid all the marketing hoopla in the latest fitness and bodybuilding magazines and avoid supplements that have not been around for longer than 3 years. This is the philosophy from an Australian strength coach who recommended not trying any supplement until it has been around at least 3 years to pass the test of time. You should however not go without the following: a high quality multi-vitamin, fish oil capsules, powdered creatine and a protein powder. These products will cover your nutritional basis for healthy body composition, strength and muscle mass.
