Working Out At Home – How to Maximize Muscle-Building Results From Your Home Workouts!

How can you build muscle faster? This is one of the top questions asked in the world of bodybuilding. Most people say that building muscle takes patience and time, but you can build it faster.

Hypertrophy can be increased by adding sets and reps to the workout, or even by reducing time between each set. But only to a certain point. It is just as dangerous to overdo it as to skip the workout. The body must be allowed to recuperate between sessions. Overtraining may lead to injuries, demotivation, and burnout.

These techniques are useful, but only if you use them on one or two exercises per day. Let’s look at the drop set, super-slow repetitions and forced negativities. Each of these can be used to build muscle more quickly when they are added into your workouts.

The drop sets is an addition to the final set. After completing your four or five sets, you will reduce the weight of that final set by between 10 and 20%. You can then do as many reps as possible. After that, remove 20% more weight from the bar and do another set. Do this only on one or two exercise per workout.

Slowing down reps is another way to build more muscle faster. You should only pause for a few seconds at the beginning and end of each exercise. The super-slow set allows you to focus on each repetition and muscle that you’re targeting, without having to use momentum. The increased connection between the mind and muscles, as well as increased time spent under tension can help you to build more muscle. Even if it means using lighter weights in order to maintain good exercise form.

Forced negatives is the third technique today. Negatives are the half of an exercise that goes from a fully contracted muscle to its original starting position. For example, on a curl it is the return of weight to its full extent, whereas for a lat-pulldown, the handle or bar must be raised to the maximum. It takes more weight for the negative to become fatigued than it does the positive. Finish your set, then raise the weight until you can no longer lift it. Focus on only the negative.

You need to use this method with caution to prevent injury. If you are doing exercises such as bench press and barbell curl, you will need someone to assist you in lifting the weight. Once the weight has been lifted to 20% of your maximum weight, you can lower it on your own.

If you only have dumbbells at home, this last technique is a good way to weight train. As you become stronger at dumbbell curls, you can simply increase the weight. If you train at home, there are usually only a limited number of dumbbells available and no other way to add weight. After you have used slow sets, you can then move onto forced negatives. You will use one hand for each negative and both hands when raising the weight.

This technique can also be used with bent rows, triceps extensions etc. but please don’t try it on squats as there is too much risk of injury. The technique is also useful for bent rows, triceps extension, etc. but not squats. There’s too much risk of injury even with a expert spotter.

Use these methods to increase your muscle mass more quickly, whether you are working out at home or in the gym. Be sure to stay on track, and that your nutrition and sleep are on target for best results. Post your results to social media to both show your progress and inspire your followers.
