Body Building concentrates on increasing the body muscles and the body mass. There are ten quick tips that can be followed to build the body mass. These tips help to increase the anabolism in the body and to create a positive nitrogen balance. Nitrogen balance can be increased by increasing the protein intake in the body. This helps in increasing the bodies' natural metabolic process. The following are the tips:
1. The first tip that is to be followed is to emphasize the negative aspects of the body. By saying negative aspects we mean to attain a failure state in the body. The failure state may be complete, absolute or simply failure. This is achieved when working with dumbbells or any other weight. When the dumbbell is held in a position where the body contracts, tension is created in that area. This tension helps in causing muscle hypertrophy. This tip is an easy to do technique that helps in overloading the muscles and promoting radical gains in the mass.
2. The second basic tip is to eat fish. This is because fish has very high amounts of fat. It produces omega-3 acids. This acid makes the muscle very sensitive towards insulin. This helps in regulating the glycogen storage and amino acid entry into the muscles.
3. The third tip is to increase the sodium intake in the body. Sodium is a very important mineral that regulates muscle growth. Sodium helps in enhancing the carbohydrate storage in the body and also absorbs the amino acid which in turn improves the muscle's responsiveness to insulin.
4. The fourth tip is to stop doing aerobics. Aerobics interferes with strength gaining. It makes the body go lean and interferes with muscle building. Certain muscle building centers may also advice in light aerobics.
5. The fifth tip is to lift weights explosively. The amount of force a muscle is able to generate is directly proportional to the amount of weight a muscle is able to carry.
6. The sixth tip is to dramatically increase the intake of calories for three days. In general while doing cardio it is advisable to increase and decrease the speed with which the exercises are done. The same procedure can be performed to increase the muscles in the body, by increasing and decreasing the amount of food.
7. The seventh tip to take periodic rests. Certain body builders are very busy training all the time that they forget to take rest. Taking a couple of days off will restore the glycogen, increase the process of anabolism and also restore the hormonal indexes to optimal levels.
8. The eighth tip is to eat in the middle of the night. Intake of excessive calories increases the anabolism in the body, which in turn facilitates the increase in the muscles.
9. The final tip is to increase the strength in the body by power lifting. More strength will equal more tension which in turn will increase the muscles. The final tip is to supplement the body with Glutamine, creatine and BCAA.
