Many muscle building programs are experiments or self discovered by weight lifters, which worked for that specific person who discovered it. However, in some cases these muscle building programs don't work. Why? Here are 4 reasons why the programs may not have worked. #1: Your Program Isn't Working Every Muscle By this, I mean you have to be working many muscles at one time. This will give your body benefits of having stability and coordination between muscles. However, muscle building programs like to incorporate machines into their workouts. Workout machines tend to focus on one muscle. This is bad because it will take forever to work many muscles, and you do not develop any real life application. Free weights can help you to work many muscles at once. Doing compound exercises like Squats and dead lifts can benefit you in saving time, working many muscles at once, and also gaining stability and coordination between muscles. #2: Keep it short If your workout came from someone who lived in a gym, you researched and found the wrong program. You want to keep it as short as possible, while still getting a full workout in. Like I said before, compound exercises will do the trick. Make sure to use fewer reps and sets while adding more weight. This will ensure a good amount of resistance to tear the muscle down in a short amount of time. #3: You are Not Incorporating Enough Intensity You don't need to waste time, and you probably don't want to. So, why not make it worth your time? Make sure you lift a significant amount of weight, around the average of 80-85% of your one rep max. Muscle building programs using less weight, with more reps and sets will be a waste of time as your muscle gaining will plane out, and you could potentially see negative results. #4: Get Enough Rest Your workout should give you a short time between exercises to refresh and cool yourself down. It should not be going rapidly from one exercise to the next, and it also should not be too long, more than 5 minutes. After your work out, leave some time in your busy schedule to take a nap. This will give your body time to attend to your muscles. This could make or break your workouts' results. Also, at night, get as much sleep as you can, around 8 hours or more if possible. Make sure to relax during your day. Less stress will result in more muscle and better performance.
