Bodybuilding Workouts

Do not jump in to it! If you are starting off and really keen, that is good news. But you must plan your bodybuilding workouts, before actually getting started. First of all, you must get a health check up to find out your current health status. Then visit the gym and the trainers will plan out a schedule for you.

Here is a great program for bodybuilding workouts:

Working out to build mass: While there may be other objectives, the main goal of all bodybuilders is to gain mass. To gain mass however, you need to gain fat. To do this, you need to eat around 500 calories every day and 5-6 meals daily. Do not worry, the fact that you have to gain fat does not mean that you will become obese.

Do not train heavy all the time. Switch your training intensity between light, medium and heavy. Here is an example of what a training program might look like.

Monday

• Bench press - 1x12, 10, 10
• Incline press - 1x12, 10, 10
• Military press - 1x12, 10, 10
• Side raise - 3x12
• Tricep extension - 3x12

Do some simple free hand exercises. Or you may also take the day off if you do not feel like going to the gym.

While you are doing the bodybuilding workouts, it is essential to monitor your growth. You may hit a plateau if you are not changing your workout routine from time to time. This is because your body will become used to any particular schedule and react at a lesser rate. You need to avoid this - thus change your schedule after every few weeks. Do keep taking pictures of yourself from time to time to register your growth and keep the motivation levels up.
