This means that you have to put the right kind of food, in the right quantities, into it and at the same time show some kind of respect to limits - there is no point hammering away in the gym when you have a pulled muscle because it won't build as well as it could, and your body will not thank you for the extra pain. Bear in mind that body building exercise has at least three stages - preparation, activity and recovery. For each of those stages you will need to follow the rules in order to benefit.

To begin with you will need good "energy food" which allows you to maintain the workout. This includes - indeed, is dominated by - carbohydrates, or "carbs" as they are often referred to. This food is like the gasoline that makes a car run, and is there in such foods as rice, pasta, bread and potatoes. It is exactly the kind of food that, without an exercise regime, can make you put on weight. This makes it extra important that you are thorough with the exercise element of your body-building plan.


You will also need proteins. Mostly these come in the form of meat (it must be lean meat) and dairy products. This is the muscle-building part of the diet - think of it as the tune-up that gets extra performance out of your car and gives it that extra grunt. Lean beef or pork - not sausages, and if you want a burger it should be 100% beef - as well as eggs and milk are great sources of protein.

To maximaize weight loss and muscle building it is best to consume five to six small meals per day. Each meal should contain a choice from each of the three food groups; carbohydrates, protein and fats. For optimal results a caloric imbalance should be employed. This means that you should vary calories from one day to the next while also varying calories as well. This will shift your metabolism into high gear and allow you to burn more calories and build muscle faster and more effectively than ever before. ]]> Karl http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/karl/692-bodybuilding-diet-nutrition.html http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/karl/691-volume-based-bodybuilding-workouts.html Tue, 06 Oct 2009 18:11:48 GMT Any individual who has pursued bodybuilding with the goal of dramatically increasing muscle size knows that volume is one of the most effective techniques in producing such results.

This is considered by many trainers to be one of the most important components because cardiovascular fitness keeps your heart, lungs and vascular system working at its best. Experts suggest a minimum of 30 minutes of aerobic exercise three or more times a week. Benefits can include lowering your blood pressure, increasing your metabolism, and decreasing the chance of depression and anxiety, among others.

Body Composition – This measures the amount of body fat compared to lean body mass (bones, muscles, organs, water). Or, to put it simply, “How fat are you?” It is pretty much universally accepted that too much body fat poses serious health risks, including respiratory dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, heart disease, diabetes, and joint diseases, among others. Some health experts claim the optimal body fat range is 18 to 30 percent for women and 10 to 25 percent for men.

Flexibility – This component is probably the most neglected factor to being physically fit. Flexibility is your ability to move joints or groups of joints through its natural range of motion, for example, bending down to tie your shoes. In addition, it also helps blood circulate to the muscles and nerves, and can help alleviate back and neck pain and other problems. Current research suggests you should stretch after warming up and to hold each stretch 20 to 30 seconds. If you think about it, nearly everything you do requires flexibility: getting out of bed, taking a shower, getting in the car, carrying groceries.

Muscular Strength -- This is your body's ability to generate a maximum amount of force during limited repetitions. This is the "How much can you bench?" component of physical fitness. While it's not important to be able to lift a house, health experts agree muscular strength training should be a part of nearly everyone's fitness program. ]]> Rudi http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/rudi/690-essential-components-optimal-physical-fitness.html http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/rudi/689-core-workouts-strong-abs.html Sat, 03 Oct 2009 18:49:09 GMT The right core exercises can mean the difference between great progress and definite results with your core training program or not getting any results at all. There are hundreds of muscles in the core of your body - the abdominals (all layers), lower and mid back, pelvic region, obliques and the popular 'love handle' areas are loaded with muscles of all different sizes, shapes, lengths and angles - which require specific exercises to produce the desired strength training effect for optimal fitness. The following exercises can serve as a core training primer for beginners or they can be added or substituted into your current core workout routine.

1 – Lying face up, hand down at your side. Bring your legs up, knees slightly bent with the bottom of your feet toward the ceiling. This is your start position. While keeping the abdominals pulled in (contracted), slowly lower your right leg, until the heel touches the ground, and then raise it back up. Do this fifteen times. Then switch legs.

2 – Lying face up with knees bent, feet off the floor. Arms are extended as if reaching toward the sky if you were standing. As you breathe out, slowly bring your knees toward you by contracting your abdominals (pulling inward). Then breathe in as you return to the start position.

3 - Lying face up with knees bent, heels on the ground and toes pointing up. Lift your butt off the ground to engage the core muscles. Now, here is where the fun starts. Lift one foot off the floor, extending that leg until it is straight, bring it back to the start position (heel on ground) and then do the same with the other leg. Keep alternating until you do a total of twenty, ten on each side. If this exercise sequence is too easy, go through it again and see how you do. You can add these exercises to your current routine or if you are a beginner you can use this as a stand alone routine to get you going. If it was too challenging, decrease the number of repetitions to about five and do this every other day. Gradually increase the repetitions as your core gets stronger. ]]> Rudi http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/rudi/689-core-workouts-strong-abs.html http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/rudi/688-best-weight-loss.html Fri, 02 Oct 2009 18:38:27 GMT The best weight loss is a loss that is maintainable. If you need help to make sure that the weight you lose doesn't creep back.The best weight loss program is that which gets you to your goal in the optimum amount of time.

The program that you choose will help you work with your strengths and avoid your weaknesses while you are losing the ugly and potentially life threatening pounds. Furthermore, you must ideally find a program that will consider how you should maintain the weight loss that you achieve after you have reached the weight goals you set for yourself. The best way to do so is to plan for each aspect of your program for losing weight, including how to avoid slipping back into the old bad eating habits.

Plan Ahead before beginning any diet, you should plan ahead and make this the last and best weight loss program you will ever have to attempt. The detailed planning that you should prepare is better if it is very comprehensive and complete. For example, decide what type of weight it is that you want to lose, whether belly fat or all over roly-poly. You should be certain of the weight loss goals that you have and whether you will need supplements or not. It's also smart to plan for how you will eat smarter for the rest of your life.

Education about the best weight loss programs is best done before beginning your program for reducing obesity. You need to know information about nutrition, exercise programs, and supplements, just to name a few factors. Look for all the many web sites that contain accurate and up to date information on the subject of weight loss and related fields. You should understand the role of exercise, nutrition and stress factors in order to help make your efforts to lose weight more effective. If you can begin to think of life style changes rather than short term diets, you will have overcome the major weight loss handicap. ]]> Rudi http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/rudi/688-best-weight-loss.html http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/rudi/687-lose-fat-calisthenics.html Thu, 01 Oct 2009 18:45:20 GMT Calisthenics is a sort of physical exercise which is quite similar to, but not a part of gymnastics. Well, this discipline has a Greek origination where, 'kalos' means 'beautiful' and 'sthenos' means 'strength'.

The exercise comprises of an assortment of simple dynamic and static physical movements. No external weights or equipment is used other than a towel or mat. The strength and flexibility of the individual's body is enhanced through the resistance weight of his own body. Calisthenics is also very effective for fat loss as well.

With exercise patterns that include sit-ups, crunches, push-ups, pull-ups, squats, calf-raises and dips, all of which are intended to make the body more flexible and naturally enhance the metabolic rate. Weight loss follows as an obvious result.


Calisthenics can be categorized as a part of strength training regimen. The principle in strength training exercise is that it strengthens the muscles through weight training and helps you to fight against those extra pounds effectively. Be it a regular exercise like using a stationary bike or running, the body utilizes the oxygen of the body thereby strengthening the heart and the lungs.

Strength training can be further made effective and the fat burning process can be accelerated when it is concentrated within a particular fat burning zone or intensity. As you train your abdominal muscles, you stand to lose the layer of fat that is covering them. You therefore achieve what is known as the six-pack abs proper nutrition and training to help you in accelerating fat loss from all target areas. ]]> Rudi http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/rudi/687-lose-fat-calisthenics.html http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/laurenz/686-body-weight-centered-workout-plans.html Wed, 30 Sep 2009 18:13:48 GMT Body weight-centered workout plans generally take longer periods of time to extensive than weight training, the workouts require more sets, and the sets largely contain more repetitions.

Trust me...there are many of people out there who have great muscular tone and balance in the mid-section, but don't even know it because those nice abs are covered in a layer of fat. Remember, a combination of three factors is necessary for a slim waistline: a good abdominal workout, smart cardiovascular exercise, and proper nutrition. In this article, I'm going to explain how to choose the proper cardio workout structure for burning the most amount of calories and burning the proper ratio of carbohydrates and fat.

When it comes to cardio, the question I probably receive most is: long and slow or short and fast? This question actually reflects the most important concept behind a good cardio routine. The truth is, it depends. Let’s begin by looking at total amount of calories burnt.Many exercise professionals will tell you that you’ll burn the same number of calories any way you do it, as long as you’re covering the same distance. This is simply not true.

Studies have shown that the faster you cover that distance, the more calories you burn, period. There is a higher metabolic cost to moving quickly than to moving slowly. So you’re going to burn the most calories by pedaling, running, rowing, swimming, or doing any other cardio you do as fast as possible. The added bonus is that the faster you move, the higher your post-exercise metabolism becomes, meaning that you burn more calories throughout the day after your workout than if you had moved at a slower pace.

Here’s the catch – the faster you "move" across that mile, the more you rely on carbohydrates for energy, and the less you rely on fat. Although burning carbohydrates is beneficial, your body should also be learning how to efficiently use fat as an energy source. The "fat-burning" zone varies from person to person, but a good rule is that when breathing becomes labored or the muscles begin to burn, you’ve crossed the threshold to utilizing carbohydrate as a primary energy source. The basic science behind this is that it takes more oxygen to burn 1 calorie from fat than it takes to burn 1 calorie from carbohydrate, so as your body begins to work harder and get lower on oxygen, it turns more to carbohydrate as an energy source. ]]> Laurenz http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/laurenz/684-cardio-workouts.html http://www.mens-health.com/boards/blogs/laurenz/683-creatine-supplements.html Mon, 28 Sep 2009 18:49:30 GMT Creatine is present in the body unsurprisingly and it’s as well an element in creatine enhancements.
