So I watched a video tutorial from a guy (I do not remember his name) earlier today and this video was packed with a lot of useful ideas for people who go to the gym to work out. In this video, This guy shared three tips to everyone get better results when they work out in a short while.

Hold up I didn’t say under a week. We are not magicians. Minimum of a month or more. I tried it to day and I saw a little bit of improvement.

Firstly, The thing we all think is, when you are trying to gain muscle weight, eat a lot of protein. While this is true, it will still not help you gain weight if you eat just three times daily. Our body absorbs the amount of protein it can from a meal to be used and the rest is excreted. Wasted…….. till the next meal before the body gets protein. Now, when working out, our muscle fibers actually tear and repair themselves and they need protein to do this. So they need protein loads round the clock to continue building and repairing after they tear. There’s a limit to the amount of protein our body can absorb in each meal and it is used instantly to repair muscles. But what happens after the body hasn’t gotten protein in the next 4 hours, It does the next logical thing, It breaks down muscles to form protein. So you are taking protein but still not seeing results. **The yoyo diet. ****

The simple thing to d to keep your results almost instantly is to break your protein intake into maybe 6 - 7 times a day so the body gets protein provided to it all around the clock when it needs it to grow. I did this today and maybe because I work out regularly, I saw the results in about 18 hrs.

Secondly, Ego lifting works counter clockwise and lifting weights fast to burn fat is bad. Ego lifting makes you lift weights heavier than the weight you should be carrying or faster than you should be repeating the reps. Aside from the obvious fact that you are actually putting yourself at a risk of injury, you might also want to consider the fact that It might actually be burning up your muscles faster than it burns your fat. There is a fine line between overworking your muscles and working out. When you over work them, you increase your body’s need for protein and this means your body will have to depend on your muscles to get protein which is something we do not want. You are not trying to be a power lifter but trying to get fit.

Lastly, Try slower reps. The main thing about working out is to stimulate your muscles till the fibers tear and studies have shown that carrying the right weight at a slow pace in 60 seconds increases muscles growth by a whooping 37%. Now that’s something crazy. By lifting the right weights the right way and the right posture, you can stimulate your muscles faster and better. The this is in the contraction of your targeted muscle. When you stimulate your targeted muscle slowly with the right weight, you see results soon. Amazing right?. Lifting slowly makes for more stimulation and also reduces the amount of time you spend in the gym. So a few slow liftings here and there to your targeted muscles and in 45mins, you are out of the gym, muscle stimulated good and well. Do not over strain your muscles though.
