Excellent Best Muscle Building Techniques Professional Trainers Use

By Emmanuel Palmer

Exercise is just one of the best stimulants there is don't you agree? It's proven than when you exert effort in physical activities, your body produces hormones that give you a natural high. Moreover, you don't only exercise your physical body, but your mental discipline as well. Think about it, with every drill you are performing, you need to concentrate on having the right form and position to complete the necessary reps properly. All this while feeling extreme soreness that weight training programs seem to cause. Sometimes you think you're crazy-but when you see the results (and they will come when you don't give up), forgiveness for your trainer comes easy enough.

Now are we raring to get some action? Great. Let us have a survey on the best muscle building regimens that aim to give you your beach ready body quickly and properly. You will find that there are two basic weight training methods that are being practiced today: high intensity training and periodization.

The first type of training is probably more painful but will yield faster results. High intensity training is exercising to your maximum capacity in the shortest time possible. Sessions last for only about 60 to 90 minutes twice or thrice a week. As your body develops more and more in strength, you are expected to regularly increase the weight and reps for each set you perform. By utilizing high intensity training workouts, you are putting a big physical demand on your body and the consequence is a better body in a shorter time.

With periodization, your body gets more time to adapt into the physical stress being put on it. You start out with three weeks of light training, followed right after by medium training. After a few more weeks, you then proceed to the more punishing heavy training but by then your body is more prepared to handle it. The focus here is the cumulative instead of per session increases obtained by your body. Periodization ensures three things: that your muscles do not get over trained; that muscle mass and strength is developed over time; and that your body does not get stagnant by staying in one level for too long.

While both high intensity and periodization training have its own advantages; the best muscle building strategy is to get what is most effective for you personally and use it in your workout. Experienced trainers can all attest to a three or four day split workout, this infuses each session with high energy and challenge without too much volume that makes for over training. Vary the weights and drills every so often for maximum productivity.

Here are some exercises specific to each muscle group you can use: Legs- squats (different variations), leg curls, leg presses Back- deadlifts, rope pull downs, seated rows, barbell shrugs Chest- bench press, dumbbell flyes Shoulders- military press, dumbbell shoulder press, seated shoulder press Arms- dumbbell curls, barbell wrist curls, triceps extensions Stomach- crunches, reverse crunches, leg raises

The best weight training programs to have are those that are difficult because you are pushed to push the envelope of your own physical capabilities. Your health, appearance and strength will benefit from a great workout session. Continue to strive for the next level and you won't be disappointed. - 31525
