Reach Your Goal With The Right Weight Training Exercises

By Emmanuel Palmer


Gym memberships are comprised mainly by two very different groups of people: those who want to trim down, and those who want to bulk up. If you want to lose the excess pounds, you'll be put on a low-calorie and high-cardio program. To build bigger muscle however, you will go the opposite direction and increase calorie intake while undergoing a physically demanding weight training exercises aimed to get you that colossal physique.

Let us focus on muscle building for this particular article. You will need to gain a significant amount of muscle mass and one way to accomplish this is to perform high intensity training for 45 to 75 minutes. Relegate cardiovascular exercises to either once ever week or two. Make the most out of every session by taking only 90 second breaks in between sets.

You will notice there are many fancy equipment and new drills but really, it's the simple ones that usually get the job done. For example, your legs will still get the most benefits in squats. Alter the positioning of your legs and you can target specific areas of this muscle group. Incorporate calf raises and lunges for best results.

There are opposing views as to which are the most effective chest exercises one should use. The bench press is the perennial go-to for men who aspire to get that barrel chest. However, many people who do not exercise this still have amazing results which they have gotten from performing flyes and pullovers. There is no right or wrong answer. You do what you believe will benefit your body the best. The vital factor is challenging your body to go to the next level by increasing weights and varying angles and reps/sets.

For guns as big as a wrestler's, do strong bench dips and bicep curls. Use high weights and increase them even more as you progress. You will notice the difference soon enough. Your arms will feel the strain the days after your training; and if they are still sore, do not exercise them yet. Over training the muscles will do you more harm than good in the long run.

There are many different exercises you can use for the back and shoulder muscles but some of the most effective ones are pull-ups (for the back) and the military press (for the shoulders). Remember to change it up every two to six weeks to utilize your weight training exercises to its maximum productivity.

Strong cardiovascular training is not advised for those who wish to gain weight and add bulk to their frame. Even so, make it a point to take time out for light aerobic exercises or sports regularly. While your goal is not to burn calories, your heart will be better for the cardio exercises you put in.

And most of all, make the best out of your weight training exercises by hitting all your drills strong every single time. You can rush through the assigned number of sets with poor form but your body will not be fooled. Do your best, and not only will you build bigger muscle-you will feel better about yourself as well.
