We will move on to showing you further steps, naturally, but for now the first five steps should keep you more than busy!
So let's look at some of the principles in a bit more depth to enable you to get the most from them all...
Most people assume that to get bigger you can just eat whatever you want. You should only do that if you're not bothered what type of size you're adding. If you want to stay lean as you grow, which most guys do, you need to set up a few basic diet rules to begin with. Multiply your target body weight, in pounds, by fifteen and this will give you a ball park figure to aim for each day.
You can spend a fortune in the supplement market each month if you're not careful. Every product claims to be necessary. The key word to remember is supplement. It should never replace nutrition from your diet, so keep your tubs to an absolute minimum to avoid confusion and unnecessary spending. Whey protein and creatine monohydrate are a solid combination which have stood the test of time, making them the perfect starting blocks.
To write out your workout routine you need to remember two simple things. Firstly, big compound movements like bench press and squat are far more effective at building lean muscle mass than smaller isolation exercises like bicep curls. Secondly, your reps should fall into the hypertrophy zone and avoid the endurance zone. This means using a weight on every set which causes you to stop after 8-12 reps.
In the next article we will cover some more of the principles explaining how to build muscle so you can begin getting great, long lasting results from your tough efforts in the gym.
