How do I gain muscle mass without getting a gym membership?
Posted by Peter in Best Way To Gain Muscle on October 10, 2009
I am very skinny, it is usually recommended that I only do squats and deadlifts. How can I gain muscle mass without the use of any weights, or are weights essential to gaining mass?
There is no way without resistance with weights. Dead lifts and squats make you soar indeed; from experience. I had a gym teacher in college that recommended it and we were all hating him for a week. Just use small weights and start out with 2 sets of 12. work your way up to say 5 sets of 12 with maybe adding a set a week. Once your up to 5 sets, try moving slower with your work outs, by then you’ll start getting a high from having your muscles worked. Always stretch before each workout and work the upper one day, do some say swimming (cardiovascular) the next; then work your lower body the next day. Eating protien like eggs, meat, and fish make the workout seem easier. I have a bowflex. Good Luck.

How to gain muscle without losing weight?
Posted by Peter in Best Way To Gain Muscle on October 10, 2009
I’m thin for my age. I would like to gain arm muscles and leg muscles and stomach muscles. Not like brolic looking but just a little more fuller. I look healthy but I’m trying to gain weight. I just need ideas on what to do to gain muscle without losing weight? Any tips on gaining weight too? I also have a peanut allergy. Thank you so much!
I would make sure you are eating high protein, with healthy fats (avacado etc) and lots of complex carbs (brown rice, sweet potatoes etc.) and when you workout do less reps with more weight..if you are doing a ton of cardio you will prob drop weight so just limit cardio to like 15 min sessions and focus on weight training exercises…bike, free weights, abs, etc Hope this helps…
Killer Home Arm Workout (biceps, triceps)
Posted by Peter in Workout To Gain Muscle on September 24, 2009
Here is a killer arm workout you can do at home with just a set of dumbbells to help get those huge guns, I’m sore for days after doing this workout. This is an arm workout for the advanced bodybuilder, if you are new to bodybuilding please check my website for a more appropriate workout.
There are six exercises, three for biceps and three for triceps. The entire workout takes 45 minutes and there is very little down time. Make sure you have done warm-up sets for both biceps and triceps before starting this workout because we start in with really heavy weights and you don’t want to get injured.
Intensity and focus are really important when you do this workout. Don’t hold back anything, treat every set as if it were your last. I know I sound stupid with all my grunting and groaning but when I give it 110%, I can’t help it. In this workout we do one exercise for biceps then without rest do the opposing triceps muscle. Here is the workout:
Biceps: dumbbell curl using forced negatives
Triceps: skull crushers
Rest 60-90s while preparing dumbbells for next exercises
Biceps: Twenty-ones with barbell
Triceps: narrow grip bench press
Rest 60-90s while preparing dumbbells for next exercises
Biceps: reverse grip barbell curls
Triceps: dumbbell kick backs
Repeat the above five times, the complete workout should take about 45 minutes. If you don’t like reconfiguring the dumbbells all the time you can also just do each bicep/triceps combo 5X and then move on to the next combo.
Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.
