Making Lean Muscle Workouts Effective


Many people want to increase lean muscle mass and trim fat. But they may go about it the wrong way. You want to make sure that if you’re putting in the hours at the gym, you do it the best way possible.

You may actually find that you need to exercise smarter, not harder to get the best results. Lean muscle workouts are designed to help you get rid of excess fat and maximize the growth of lean muscle tissue from resistance exercises.

First, you need to make sure that you’re performing compound exercises. This is the term for exercises that use more than one joint at a time. For example, when you perform a squat you’re moving your knees, ankles, and hips. By doing so, you exercise many muscle groups at once.

Other examples include bench press, deadlifts, chin-ups, curls using barbells, pushups and rows. Instead of isolating one muscle, make sure you expand to more than one at a time. In addition, use the heaviest weight you can safely lift.

Instead of performing many reps and sets, perform one or two sets with a weight that brings your muscle to fatigue at the end of the set. This helps to build lean muscle faster than lighter weights with more reps.

You also need to make sure you’re giving your muscles time to rest. This is one of the concepts of exercise that gets ignored the most. You need to work your entire body on one day and then give your whole body rest the next day.

This gives your system time to recover from the workout. Many people work different parts of their bodies each day and never take a whole day to rest. You put too much stress on your body when you don’t give it time to rest and recover. This also prevents muscle tissue from being increased.

It’s also important to give your body a good stretch after lean muscle workouts. This helps your muscle tissue to be repaired and built. You’ll also decrease sore muscles and prevent injury by making sure you address flexibility as part of your workout.

You can effectively build lean muscle by working out three days a week if you make those days count. Actually allowing your body to get a break will help you to develop stronger and leaner muscle tissue.

Lean muscle workouts don’t require you to live at the gym, they just require that you understand some fundamentals and use proper technique.
