I wanted to show you some muscle building weightlifting exercises that can really improve the amount of muscles that you will build. When it comes to the body, there is a lot of misinformation about properly training it. Most people don't have the slightest clue because they've heard the same generic advice that probably originated from an infomercial. I've dedicated almost a decade to training and it has been over the recent years where I've actually learned what it takes to put on muscle. I'll share a little about what I've learned with you.

The first point I want to make is about your diet. The diet you have for your body sets the standards of muscle growth. If your diet is of poor quality, than you're going to have poor results. It doesn't matter how good your workout is, as long as your diet is of poor quality, your muscles just won't grow. I think the most important thing you can do for your diet is cut out all the processed foods and preservatives. There are tons of chemicals in the food you eat and I believe they slow down and hamper the process of building muscle.

When it comes to the gym, you don't need a long workout. You need intensity. Intensity causes stress to the muscles forcing them to adapt and grow. Start doing compound exercises like deadlifts, squats and bench press. I have short 7 minute workouts that are intense and I just do a few exercises. I'm drenched in sweat, but that forces my muscles to grow.
