Go To: moveto.ws – Gaining 20 pounds of muscle is NOT impressive if 15 pounds of that is on your butt, thighs, and waist. Gaining untargeted muscle is easy and over-rated. The problem with following the standard advice of concentrating on the “big 3″ lifts (squat, deadlift, and bench press) is that it will most likely create a terrible looking, bulky physique.

One of the most popular muscle groups to focus upon is the chest, with many bodybuilders seeking significant muscle mass in the pecs through performing many sets of heavy bench pressing. Despite most weight lifting routines centering upon the bench press as the main upper body muscle building exercise, there are numerous bodybuilders who produce disappointing results in the chest region, and are searching for an alternative to the bench press for added muscle gain. Many bodybuilders may still be unaware as to the true reasons why the chest in many cases does not develop as quickly as other smaller muscle groups, and replacing the bench press is not a viable solution, since this particular exercise is very effective in packing on additional chest muscle, that is, assuming that the shoulders and triceps do not fail prior to the pecs, which occurs far too often. This is the factor that many neglect when analyzing how to produce an effective chest building routine, as there are many muscle groups that participate in compound exercises such as the bench press, and if they are weaker than the target muscle that a bodybuilder is attempting to train (such as the shoulders or triceps experiencing fatigue prior to the chest during bench press), the supporting muscles (shoulders or triceps in this example) will fail first, and this will cause disappointing results in the primary muscle group (chest). How this applies to the chest muscles in particular is that the triceps and shoulders are frequently insufficiently powerful to allow the pecs to fail first during the bench press exercise, which leads to lackluster muscle gain in the chest. Therefore, to rectify this scenario, a bodybuilder must institute pre-exhaustion, a technique that targets the chest in a more direct way, which fatigues the pectorals sufficiently to allow them a far greater chance for failure prior to the shoulders and triceps during the bench press, and this will result in far faster and more elaborate chest muscle growth. The most effective pre-exhaustion exercise for the chest is pec deck, where both hands or elbows are brought together from an outstretched position either holding handles or placing the forearm behind padding, and this greatly overloads the pecs, causing them significant fatigue. When performing such an exercise prior to bench pressing, the shoulders and triceps will in most cases outlast the pecs due to proper performance of this pre-exhaustion exercise (pec deck), and this allows the chest to receive the majority of stimulation during all bench press movements. Some choose to use dumbbells instead of the pec deck, performing a weight training movement known as dumbbell flies, but doing so is not as effective as using pec deck since the dumbbell fly exercise allows less weight to be used, in addition to requiring the bodybuilder to balance the two dumbbells above his or her chest as if performing the bench press, which introduces unnecessary shoulder fatigue (and the goal is to target the pecs and avoid as much shoulder or triceps overload as possible). The pec deck targets the chest in a very direct fashion, which is the goal of any pre-exhaustion technique, and thus the pec deck should be performed immediately prior to the bench press for any bodybuilder who experiences disappointing chest muscle growth. For bodybuilders who cannot access a pec deck machine, the cable crossover is a somewhat less effective, but acceptable alternative, yet the chances are that those who are unable to use a pec deck also do not own a cable crossover unit, therefore, in such cases, dumbbell flies are acceptable for chest muscle pre-exhaustion prior to bench pressing. Keep in mind that the weight used during bench press will decline as compared with what you were able to use prior to introducing the pec deck as a pre-exhaustion technique, as your pecs will have experienced fatigue from pec deck prior to performing the bench press exercise, but this should not be of concern to you, as the total amount of overload will increase due to a combination of the extra pec deck exercise, and the greater focus upon chest fatigue during bench press that occurs as a result of pre-exhausting the pecs. The goal is to use the greatest amount of weight while targeting the intended muscle group, and for many, when performing bench press as the first exercise of a workout, without pre-exhaustion, the pecs never receive sufficient stimulation to begin achieving their impressive muscle growth potential.

Strength training routines are a great form of training to help build muscle mass. Many trainees use other forms of training such as volume training to try and build muscle. But strength type training is often overlooked or not done correctly, which can sell people short of their muscle building potential. The simple fact is that if you can lift a lot of weight you will be big, as big muscles lift big weights. For some reason this is a forgotten fact a lot.
Strength Training
Strength style training as the name suggests is training to specifically increase strength and raw power. Generally speaking you perform between 1-5 reps per set. The idea is to increase strength and avoid muscle fatigue as much as possible, so that you can lift as much weight as possible.
Strength Training Exercises
The best strength exercises to do are the big compound movements such as squat, deadlift, bench and row. These exercises will make you work the most muscle fibres for each exercise. The bigger exercises also let you use a lot more weight which will force your body to add muscle mass due to the amount of stress it is being put under.
Strength Training Program
If your goal is muscle building; you should add slightly more volume to a traditional strength program. Adding the extra volume will provide enough stimulus to your muscles to induce muscle growth. A good guide line is to aim for 25 or more reps for an exercise. For example you could do 5 sets of 5 reps of squats before moving onto the next exercise.
Strength Training Routines
There are many routines you can follow, a great one to start with is a 5×5 workout as previously described. You can also use a rep scheme like 8 sets of 3 reps and focus more on speed of the reps which will improve strength levels further. One crucial consideration, before doing this style of training, is to ensure you are getting enough volume into your workouts, to promote muscle growth. You can either do some volume exercises during the workout, or another time of the week. You can also do around 3 weeks of strength training and 3 weeks of volume, which is proven to work well.
Whatever way you choose to use this training style, strength training routines should be part of your workout schedule.

- Building Muscle with Bodyweight…. — Zen to Fitness Building Muscle with Bodyweight…. : Zen to Fitness
One of the biggest mistakes when trying to lose weight is omitting weight training from your work-out regimen. Weightlifting is an exercise that uses resistance to strengthen the musculoskeletal system. Cardiovascular exercise and low-fat eating alone is not an effective way to lose fat because it often results in muscle loss. Research indicates we lose about one-half pound of muscle every year of our lives after age 30 unless we incorporate a safe and regular strength training workout into our routine. Our overall physical well being can be improved by muscle gain or deteriorate by muscle loss. Building muscle by resistance training and proper nutrition is the most effective way to change your physical appearance, improve your health, and boost your self esteem. No matter your current fitness level, training with weights will improve overall physical well being and endurance. A balanced fitness routine should include at least 2-3 weight training sessions per week that involves precise controlled movements for each major muscle group. As difficult as it may be to get started or continue with a strength training routine- remember that weightlifting provides results and benefits that cannot be achieved by any other exercise or activity. The positive changes to your energy level, health, physical appearance and mental state are well worth the effort. Eight Great Reasons to Weight Train:Increased Muscle Mass Will Boost MetabolismBuilding muscle will result in your body burning more calories at a resting level than fat. The more muscle you build, the more calories your body will burn in a 24 hour period. Your overall weight may not change, but you will gain muscle and lose fat. Over time you should notice decreases in waist measurements and body fat measurement. After the age of 30, the body produces a reduction in basal metabolic rate (BMR) each year. This means we burn fewer calories and more will be stored as body fat. By increasing lean muscle mass throughout your body, you will increase your BMR. Resistance Training Helps Prevent Aging Lifting weights will help one to age gracefully and grant them a better quality of life over the long run. Stronger bodies are more resilient, are injured less by falls, and are able to heal more quickly. Resistance exercise training also improves the functionality of the musculoskeletal system and has been shown to prevent osteoporosis, loss of body mass, back pain, and other disabilitiesWeightlifting Strengthens Bones Studies indicate that safe resistance training will increase bone density and prevent Osteoporosis. Strength Training is Good For Your HeartWeight Lifting has been shown to benefit the cardiovascular system by increasing HDL – High Density Lipoprotein (good cholesterol) and decrease LDL – Low Density Lipoprotein (bad cholesterol) in addition to lowering blood pressure. Exercise Reduces Stress and AnxietyCountless studies show that exercise is one of most effective methods for stress management. The ability to handle stress and anxiety improves when the positive changes that occur with a healthy diet, exercise and resistance training begin to take shape. Weight training also aids the body fall asleep quicker and get better quality of sleep. Lifting Weights Will Increase Energy LevelThose with a higher percentage of lean muscle mass also have more body strength, endurance and better overall performance of everyday tasks. Muscles utilize energy more efficiently to produce movement allowing one to participate in physical activity and day-to-day activities with more gusto and endurance. Strong Muscles Improve PostureStrong lean muscles will improved your balance and coordination, giving you the ability to stand and sit straighter and more comfortably. The way you sit and stand are influenced by the health of the muscles in your neck, shoulder, back, hip and abdominal- the stronger those muscles are, the better your ability to hold yourself up with ease. Resistance Training Will Reduce Risk of Injury Another benefit of building lean muscle mass is flexibility and strength. The increased flexibility reduces the risk of injury to your muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The chance of back and knee injuries are diminished by building muscle around these areas. Stronger muscles are more resilient which improves our balance-decreasing the chances of falls or accidents. Our muscles also function as shock absorbers and serve as important balancing agents throughout our body.
