Specialized Workouts For Bodybuilding Women : Designing Muscle Building Programs

↪ How to Build Muscle
Designing Muscle Building Programs :

Now that you understand How to Build Muscle you are ready to design your Muscle Building Programs. Canned weight training programs are presented in the many books, magazines and on websites devoted to bodybuilding. Many of these are exceptional, but building muscle requires variety. Following one set program week after week will not only become tedious but leads to plateaus where little improvement will be realized. You can avoid this by understanding how a Bodybuilding Workout is put together so you can create your own custom Muscle Building Programs.

Choose two exercises for each large muscle group (chest, back, shoulders, glutes and quads). Then select one work out for each small muscle group (biceps, triceps, hams and calves). Choose weights that allow you to perform 3 - 5 sets of 6 - 8 reps. Work the large lower body muscle groups first and then the large upper body groups. Work the small muscle groups last. Keep the rest periods between sets at a minimum to improve your cardiovascular system, no more than 90 seconds. Free weights require the best range of motion and should be chosen over machines for the majority of your exercises. For variety, devote a few daily workouts to specific muscle groups and on other days do full body workouts.
