Ok, you are almost ready to get your workout in. Our goal was to write a short article but there’s one more thing we’d like to share with our Shredded Fam.

Doing these exercises daily is not enough. You have to know how to properly perform each exercise. Otherwise, you most likely will not see a change in your body but you may also injure yourself.

Useful Mass Building Tips

If you haven’t already, you will probably see many fitness enthusiasts at the gym doing exercises the incorrect way. Either their form is wrong, their posture is bad or they are probably lifting the exact same weight for the longest time.

And most likely, they probably look the same as they have because they are not doing things right, therefore are not able to build muscle mass. Luckily, the following rules will help you bulk up the right way!

Tip #1: Carbs, Protein, and Fats

Include protein, carbs, and fats in your diet if you want to build muscle mass. Your body absolutely needs protein to rebuild and repair your muscle fibers into bigger and stronger ones. Carbs and fats will help you build muscle mass easier as well—they all work together synergistically.

Tip #2: Foods High in Omega-3

Salmon, caviar, chia seeds, walnuts, and oysters are great examples of foods rich in omega-3. They have various benefits for your body and brain. The recommended minimum daily amount is 250 mg of omega-3s. However, it highly depends on your weight and daily activity.

Tips #3: Progressive Overload

Change things up. You can’t expect your muscle to grow when you’re doing the same workouts with the same weight, sets and reps. You need to challenge yourself. You should continuously strive to do more reps and sets, and if you succeed, increase the weight.

Tips #4: The Same Weight For Each Set

This one is more as a clarification to the previous tip. A lot of people change the weight they use for each est. This is not necessary. Instead, make sure you use the same weight for each set and then add more weight when you feel ready to move up.

Tips #5: Rest

Give your body enough time to rest and recover properly from strength training. Your goal is to build muscle mass, right? Your body grows when it rests, not when you lift weights. If you don’t give the rest it needs, you will slow down your progress.

Here’s the bottom line:

This mass building workout will help you build muscle mass in no time. However, just make sure you switch your program from time to time. Never follow the same workout program for a long time, especially without progressively adding weight to your exercises. When you feel like you are getting used to a workout, change it up. Now try sticking to the above workout plan and go build some quality muscle mass!
