Executive Summary about How to Build Muscle by Michael Tottman

Publish by : andy hardware

Even if you don't have ambitions of becoming a bodybuilding or weightlifting champion, you may still be interested in toning your muscles and building more muscle mass. Lift weights and perform resistance training exercises slowly. Lifting weights quickly involves the use of momentum in performing the lifts. You are therefore only tiring yourself without actually working your muscles if you lift weights in this manner. Too much Cardio exercises can be counterproductive to your goal of adding bulk muscles.

Getting enough rest is just as important as training properly to build muscle. If you think that you are building muscle mass while working out, then you are wrong. You actually build muscle while your body is resting. This is the time when your body repairs damaged muscle tissues and promotes muscle growth. Aside from exercise and rest, your diet also plays an important role in muscle-building. Load up on protein and complex carbohydrates to optimize your body's muscle-building capacity. Water keeps your metabolism working smoothly and helps flush out toxins that may interfere with your body's natural ability to build muscle.

Building Muscle - How to Build Up Your Triceps

Executive Summary about How to Build Muscle by Zoltan Bundler

The triceps brachii, also called the horseshoe, is a large muscle on the back of your arm responsible for arm extension. Well sculpted, symmetrical triceps add dynamic power and size to your arms and enable you to lift more weight when working muscle groups in the chest, biceps, back and shoulders. As part of a comprehensive workout, include targeted exercises that work your triceps but also build the surrounding muscle groups. Compound exercises and isolation moves pump your triceps into mighty muscle machines.

Triceps Pushdown

Triceps pushdown or pulley pushdowns are a basic target exercise that works the outer and medial head, which forms the horseshoe shape of your triceps. Place the grip attachment overhead to optimize the extension of your arm and work your triceps exceptionally hard.

Triceps Dips

Triceps dips can be done various ways using a bench, parallel bars or a chair. Advance to parallel bar dips once you have the strength in your triceps to support your body weight without compromising form.

Lying or Standing Triceps Extension

The lying extension is done while on your back using a weighted barbell or curl bar. Without locking your arms, lift them and the bar upwards in a straight position. Push the bar back up into starting position. Rest between exercises but not between repetitions.
