Well, for most bodybuilders, the way to gain muscle mass is through engaging in intense strength training and cardio exercises. They engage in bodyweight exercises first, and then eventually move on to free weight exercises. This is because putting your body under stress signals it that it needs more muscles to be able to perform the exercises that you want to do. They also engage in intense bursts of activity, followed by periods of longer active rests, or interval training, which will help you keep the fat burning while youre building lean muscle mass.
But more than just exercise, the way to achieve your goal of gaining muscle mass is by modifying your diet. Most people who want to build muscle tend to reduce their food intake, when in fact they should be eating correctly for lean muscle gain. This type of diet is called the anabolic diet, and it enables dieters to reach their fat loss goals without losing muscle mass. This diet, which is designed to get your body into fat burning mode as quickly as possible, must be composed of very low carbohydrate foods initially, and limited to only thirty grams a day or less for the first week. You can then start eating high carbohydrates foods after this phase of your diet.
It also helps to eat for thirty minutes up to four hours after workouts, or during the post workout window of opportunity period, because this is when the fuel for your body is so depleted. Because of your intense workouts, nearly all the food that you consume at this time will go directly into your muscles. In addition, you should eat small frequent feedings in a day to speed up your metabolism.
So these are just three ways to gain muscle mass naturally.
