Body Building Facts And Myths

Body building has become a great trend and is found to be most popular with the modern youth. This time we at modern trends went to different gyms and met the greatest builders there. Read on to know their body building secrets and the workouts needed to get an awesome muscular body.

For the first time in my life I went to the gym in order to collect the information and facts about great body building secrets as followed by the Bollywood celebrities. Prakash a very close friend of mine, who looked very thin and weak, removed his shirt and I saw those beautiful cuts around his ribs. He had a very cool body and looked just great without a shirt on his chest. He had muscular ripples all over his body and looked very strong. I decided to do my body building workouts under his guidance.

Many youngsters do workouts for building a good body but their bodies are so out of proportion that the personality as a whole does not look so impressive. Some attend the gymnasium since a very long time but are unable to get those great cuts on their body, reason being, they do not follow procedure. All those who have done many body building workouts, and, yet haven’t got any significant body muscles, need to consult the gym master without feeling shy (after all he is being paid for it). You cannot advance in this field without the help of senior body builders. This is one of the fields where experience matters a lot.

Now let us take a look at the basic body building steps. First of all, you should be quite slim to initiate a body building schedule. If you have a tummy, better start with cycling or the jogging machine (I have used simple words so that everybody understands what I am speaking about). When you think that your body has achieved a good proportion, start with the body building process. The reason is because, in body building, the most important factor is to lose the fats accumulated in your body. This makes the cuts on your stomach and chest clearly visible. I have seen some friends of mine wearing sweaters and running around in the afternoon sun. I thought they were crazy and I was right: they really were crazy about body building. Also, if you are very thin you need to improve your diet. You need to eat a lot in order to tone your body and achieve the right expected proportionate body. If you are too thin, you can easily build your six pack abs by doing a little bit of abdomen exercise at your home. But, if you want those cool biceps and triceps decorating your arms consider eating like the poultry animals and toiling in the gym like a mad bull.

The whole body building process is based on these two simple facts. This once achieved will give you very good results in your body building workouts. Now let us take a quick look at the myths encountered in this field:

1. “Heavy workouts give bulky muscles”. This is the worst myth around. It isn’t heavy workout which is important it is a heavy weight which is more important. You need to increase the weight of the apparatus you are using in order to achieve good body building results. Your muscles will start blowing out when you become harder. In order to become more hard and strong you need to upgrade the weight of your dumbbells. The more weight you lift the stronger you become. Greater the force you apply during your workouts, greater will be the size of your muscles. So, lifting twenty kilograms a hundred times wont give you even half the effect of lifting fifty kilograms a mere two times.

2. “A pain after or during the workouts means that you are doing a good workout”. This is absolutely false. In fact if you are getting a pain it denotes that you are not doing your body building workouts in a proper manner. Do not be too harsh with your body. Doing this has many a times ripped the muscles of many great builders.

3. “Working a little bit with all the apparatus is a good solution”. It is not so. If you think that not using all the apparatus will waste your money you are right. But if you think that “if I do not use all the apparatus everyday my money will be wasted”, let me tell you that you are absolutely wrong. Is it the money which is more important or the final product which comes out of the gym? Read the following paragraph and find out why many a people going to the gym do not get the expected results in their body building programs.

The reason is quite simple. Many people use all the apparatus lying around in the gym. This is a very bad way of working out. I did it too, but now I have rectified my mistakes. It is advised to work on one specific part of your body each day. Say today you use all the equipment which will tone your chest, then, tomorrow use all the apparatus which tones your shoulders. Day after tomorrow work on your chest and so on. Always work systematically. Fat guys should do more workouts on their chest and arms to get a few quick results. Whereas those who are thin should work more on the abdominal area. This will give quick body building results which will be visible to everybody. If you take a lot of stress during your workouts your face will start changing and look very ugly. So do not squeeze the hell out of yourself to get the desired effect as quickly as possible. After all, a good face is also important.

Body building is not every guy's cup of tea. And anyway there are lot of people out there who have a tummy and are yet adored by so many people. It isn’t a macho type of body building which is so important. It is a good personality and a perfectly balanced body like Salman Khan which is more important. Recently there is a lot of competition in body building among Bollywood actors. Presently it is John Abraham who shock the audience with his great body building workouts. Hrithik also flaunted great biceps ever since his first film. Body builders consider body building to be an art and work out to get the perfect looks which is adored in the corporate section of the modern times.
