How to Build Muscle Mass

Understanding how to build muscle mass is something that every bodybuilder should know but does not. Bellow we outline 6 great tips to help you build muscle mass.

1. Optimize Your Lifting Technique

In order to gain more muscle mass you must exert more energy during lifts. By this I mean the heavier the weight being lifted, as well as how much effort you exert, creates energy. This extra exertion of energy will assist you in building more muscle mass.

2. Use Free Weights

Using free weights allows you to create a more natural range of motion in your exersises.  They also assist in the stretch of the long muscles.

3. Not too much Cardio

Too many calories burned during cardio can limit your energy for the high energy exertion exersises.

4. Eat plenty of Meat And Fish

As for fish, Salmon contains high amounts of Omega-3 and 6  as well as a great source of protien. The proteins in meat are very neccesary for propermuscle growth and will enhance the speed it takes to create muscle growth. The more the better!

5. Supplements During and Between Workouts

 Once you have lifting experience, you can try out Creatine to really pack on the muscle fast!

If your metabolism is fast, you may need to add supplements like glutamine and creatine to your diet.  If your level of glutamine is too low, it may prevent optimal muscle growth. Supplements like glutamine and creatine you will encourage growth of the muscle exersised.

6. Sleeping

Be sure to have 6-8 hours of sleep per Night. Any less would be detrimental to your quest.
