It happens sometimes that your muscles stop growing after few months despite the fact that you are having regular exercises and heavy workouts. Below I have explained 7 reasons why your muscles stop growing. How to get muscle to grow again is explained as under:
One of the reasons is that perhaps you are over training your muscles and this is causing problems for muscles. When you do exercises, you are actually breaking up your muscle tissues and they need time to repair. So you need to give them this time through rest and proper sleep. All you need to do is to train your muscle groups once or at the most twice a week and not more than that.
Second reason is that perhaps you are not sleeping enough to ensure that you get good muscles. Muscles are repaired during sleeping and this actually helps them grow big. So sleep atleast 7-8 hours daily if you want your muscles to grow big.
Third reason is that if you are an alcohol user, then this is not a good news for you. Alcohol actually breaks muscles and causes certain other destructions in your body. So avoid it.
Fourth reason could be that you are performing same routine every time and do not change it. If you do so, your muscles get adapted to that routine and stop growing further. So keep changing your workout routines every 6-8 weeks as a good practice for bodybuilding.
Fifth important reason is that you may not be overloading your muscles progressively through either changing weights or increasing the reps. So you need to overload them otherwise there is no point for muscles to grow big.
Sixth reason is that you may not be taking enough amount of protein as required by your body. Remember, protein is building block of muscles and you need at least 1 gram of protein per pound weight of your body. You may also use protein supplements or shakes to overcome protein intake deficiency if you feel so.
Last reason for it may be that you are not taking the diet that is nutritious. Remember that just taking diet does not matter. What matters is that the diet you take should be nutritious so that it can help your muscles to grow and get you the results you want.
I hope that you can get good muscles if you can avoid these 7 problems that have been discussed above in this article. So better luck guys and hope to see you in good body….!!
