Best Muscle Building Parameters

By Wakelin Smith


Discovering how to build muscle fast involves using the best muscle building program for you. Determining what your best muscle building program is depends on whether you are trying to build muscle mass fast or gradually, and your body type. Imagine if everyone built up their muscles as the same rate. There would be no need for personal trainers, for a start, since everyone could follow the exact same program for the exact same result. The best muscle building programs usually include drop sets, negatives, flexing and strip sets.

Drop sets are done with dumbbells. Start with a slightly heavy set of dumbbells, do one set and then do a repetition with a lighter set of dumbbells, then another repetition with a lighter set again. You should rest for several seconds between each repetition, but the key is to force yourself to do more after you feel you have reached your limit.

Not everyone knows what negatives are. And they are just as important as the positive types of weight lifting. While positive weight lifting pushing the weight away from your body, negatives pull the weight towards you. Both types are important for the best muscle building routines. The most effective way of adding strength to a weak bench press is with negatives. But how do you do this, you might ask? Well, you place the bar as high as you comfortably can, and simply bring the weight down toward you. That's how you do it!

Flexing is another important technique for building strength. Flexing should be carried out between each other type of weight training that you use in your routine - during the periods that you would call your resting periods. Flexing also ensures that you keep your muscles pumped throughout your routine.

Most of the best muscle building programs use strip sets, because stripping a couple plates from the set when you are lifting weights will mean you are able to perform more repetitions. Strip sets should always be performed towards the end of your weight lifting routine - never near the beginning.

In summary, it certainly is possible to build muscle fast. So what are you waiting for?
