The purpose of strength training is to get stronger, and yes ... build muscle. If I were to give them weights they could already lift comfortably ... they wouldn't be getting any stronger!</p>\n<p>Lifting weight that does not make you grunt may help you build a certain amount of endurance, but that's not what you are trying to accomplish. Find a weight that feels heavy to do for each of your exercises. Not dangerously heavy. But, choose a weight that you could not lift more than 10 times if your life depended on it. The first few reps might not seem so bad, the middle few should make you wince, and the last few should make you grunt, groan and wince. Challenge yourself! Training with a weight is recommended you can do no more than three sets of eight or 10 with. Once you've trained a particular muscle group, make sure you allow it at least 48 hours to rest, repair and rebuild as well.</p>\n<p>As far as nutrition goes, protein of course is key in building muscle. Spread your protein consumption throughout the day. You needn't obsess over it though. More important, strive for a balanced diet full of fruit, vegetables, lean protein, lean dairy, healthy fats and plenty of water. Lean meat, eggs, nuts, and beans are great sources of protein.</p>\n<p>Creating a strong athletic physique takes work. I happen to love lifting weights, and think it's a lot of fun too. Having said that ... I do not have overly large 'mannish' muscles. They're just strong and lean. Strength training not only helps make you strong, it creates curves, burns fat more efficiently, promotes healthy bone density and simply makes you a more resilient person. Now go get yourself a pair of weight lifting gloves and prepare to grunt, groan and sweat. Choose weights that are actually heavy to you and you'll get where you want to go in no time.</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pk83qnt85","appParentAuthor":"alv","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
