Do genetics really matter or are they just a way for people who don’t have the kind of results they’re after to whine about their lack of muscle growth?

A lot of muscle building programs promise that they will help you overcome your genetic limitation and gain more muscle mass than ever before. Do these muscle building experts know some secret than you don’t or are they just blowing ...

The program (known as MYM for short) was created by Vince Del Monte.

You may already know about Vince as the author of the highly acclaimed  No Nonsense Muscle Building program which is intended for beginners and intermediate trainees.

Vince has helped over 20,000 people worldwide to train and eat better to build muscle mass. (Click here to see some before and after pictures of his students)

Sure, there is always more to learn and more advacned techniques that you can use to try to gain a bit more muscle mass in a little less time. However, you can get awesome results just by following some basic guidelines.

These guidelines are just another example of the 80/20 rule in action. This rule means that 20 percent of your effort is responsible for 80 percent of the results you will get. This essentially means that by focusing on the 20 percent of actions that really ...

This is what the Anabolic Cooking program by “Muscle Cook” (as he’s fondly called) Dave Ruel teaches: how and what to eat in order to achieve your fitness goals and build the most muscle mass for your effort.

While there are many programs that show you how to train correctly, the place most muscle builders get it wrong is in their nutrition. The reason is simple: it’s quite easy to know when you’re training right and when you’re not training right. It’s easy to ...

I want to give you a broader picture and talk about how you can gain muscles and become more athletic in the process.

One of the main problems of muscle builders is that they bigger and heavier they get, the less athletic they get. You don’t see a really bulky NBA player, do you? No, their muscles are developed in an entirely different way. They have lots of definition but their muscles are big enough ...

How you workout (I include resting between workouts in this factor) How you eat (you actually need to feed the body for it to grow properly and recover) Your genetics

While you do have control over how you workout and how you ear, your genetic makeup is outside your control as you’re born with it and “stuck” with it for the rest of your life. Some people are generally more muscular than others and will achieve better results with the same workouts and nutrition protocol.

Some muscle building programs ...

It’s a program that’s defined as a solution to one of the most common problems muscle builders face: anabolic slow down.

If you’ve never heard of Anabolic Slow Down, it is still likely that you’re fighting it today. What it basically means is that you’ve just stopped building muscle and gaining mass, no matter what you’re trying to do and how you workout. It’s like your muscles themselves are resisting your desire for them to continue growing.

This is hardly surprising as we all know ...

This is why I decided to review it here on this site.

There’s something about the body of a fighter that’s unlike any other, no matter how fit. The Mitt Cons 690 program is a fitness plan made especially for fighters and guys who want to get the body of a fighter. It was created by Brandon Jones, a formidable and boxing Guru, known for his no nonsense, take ...

In this article, I want to give some tips on how to get big traps in a short time.

source: wikipedia

But before we get into the specific tips, let’s see what the trapezius muscles are and where they located on your body. As you can see in the picture to the right,  the trapezius muscle begins at your neck, goes to the side on the top of your shoulder and travels halfway down your back.

Due to they’re location, having ...

While many men and women have other things they rather do, like watch TV and go to the mall, you choose to spend much of your free time at the gym, pumping iron.

 The question is how do you continue to have the required focus you need in order to go to the gym week after week month after month and give your heart and soul to get a little bigger, a little stronger.
