Normally you have been hearing all the way through your bodybuilding that the more you work, the bigger the muscles you are likely to get. This cannot be far from the truth. If this is so, you must be thinking that if working more can bring big muscles than why working out less can be best for bodybuilding? But it is a fact that lesser the time you spend in the weightlifting room, the more muscles you actually get. This may not sound very popular but it is a fact.
Your body needs time and rest to repair itself. When you do heavy workouts in the gym, you actually are tearing the tissues of the muscles. When you take rest or are sleeping at night, that is actually the time when your body repairs the muscles and this is the time to gain muscles. So the more time you give your body, the more muscles it can gain. You can follow the tips below to get big muscles in the training room:
If you are working for the whole week or 5-6 times a week, then stop doing so. You must be exercising 3 times a week and give more rest to your body muscles so that they can grow big. This way your body really gets very good muscles and repairs the damaged muscles well.
Second thing to focus on is that you should not workout for longer periods of time. Max you should be doing the exercise should be 20-25 minutes and not be an hour or more. You should do quick workouts with focus on building groups of muscles rather than focusing on each separate muscle. By exercising groups, you can really get good results in shorter period of time.
Next thing you should be focusing on is that plan your exercise in such a way that you perform certain exercises for muscle groups on certain days. This means that you do not need to work out for each muscle group every day. For example, if you are doing workouts for upper body muscles one day, you can do for the lower body parts the other day. This approach will automatically give you time to provide proper rest to your body muscles resulting in getting more mass to them.
