TO GROW MUSCLES, YOU NEED TO FEED THE RIGHT NUTRIENTS TO SUPPORT GROWTH.

TO GROW MUSCLES, YOU NEED TO FEED THE RIGHT NUTRIENTS TO SUPPORT GROWTH.
PROTEIN = BUILDING BLOCKS
CARBOHYDRATES = FUEL



Studies have shown that the timing and amount of protein are key factors when looking to gain muscle. On top of a balanced diet, additional protein and carbohydrate both before and after training can be of great benefit. The recommendation are that males aiming to gain muscle should consume 1.2-1.5g/kg/day of protein, ANY MORE WILL BE USED FOR ENERGY PRODUCTION. But the protein will not go towards growth if you are not eating enough to meet your energy needs (i.e. Wt loss goals), therefore you can get stronger, whilst leaning up, but it is hard to lean up and get huge at the same time.

TO DEVELOP STRENGTH YOU NEED TO LIFT HEAVY WEIGHTS.

TO DEVELOP STRENGTH YOU NEED TO LIFT HEAVY WEIGHTS.

By lifting a bigger weight than you are used to, you force your body to adapt to the new weight hence making you stronger. Strength training may leave you sore for a few days, as you do micro damage when lifting heavy weights. It must be heavy enough so that you reach maximum within the target rep range, usually 4-8.
