There are no Muscle building workouts!

I did some research on this topic for the past few months and have found out that majority of the people who recently have joined a fitness centre have asked Google on how to increase muscle! If you are reading this and you are one of them, I request you to give 5 minutes to this BLOG so you can understand that even after heaving lifting and loading up stacks of supplements, you are not seeing results!

When we bring our muscle in motion; there is a tension created which results in breaking muscle tissues. Furthermore, we consume food which delivers the essential nutrients to that muscle and heals it. NOTE! This is where we make mistake, we create excess tension in our muscles and forget that it needs rest to heal and repair. Some of my clients use to workout 7 days a week without day off. Our muscle tissue wants time to repair and it gives better results! If you are new to the gym, make sure to give at least 2 day off in a week. Rather get a massage done on the day-off which will help your muscle to repair faster!

Why you should train with your buddy?

More than a thousand people ask this question every month, “Should I train alone or with a gym buddy?”, it would be much easier if these people asked this question to themselves. Before I reach towards a conclusion, I would like to point out that this is no rocket science! nor it is mathematics! It is does not require any sort of calculation or tests.

In order for you to get the answer, try to follow a routine for a week; it can be anything from waking up early at a particular time for the whole week, going for a walk, painting, cleaning, working etc. Make sure you set a time for this and do this routine in the time you have allotted yourself. You may/may not require to note down since its only for a week.

After a week, ask yourself if this was a burden or a duty you had to go through. If you took it as a task which had to be done on time. If yes, then you got yourself an answer to find a gym buddy! It can be extremely helpful in cases when you feel sidetrack; motivating each other in these situation can keep you and your buddy regular to the gym!
