Building Muscle Mass To Get That Superman Chest

By Emmanuel Palmer


Have you always wanted to look like Superman? The key to achieving that is by building muscle mass. Don't think only a gifted few can only achieve that physique. If you are determined, patient and have a strong sense of discipline, you can build chest muscles as big and muscular as how you want it to be.

What do you need to do? First of all you have to increase the calories in your diet starting yesterday. Your daily calorie allowance should be around 3,000 to 6,000 calories derived from healthy sources like chicken and fish. Your goal is to gain a lot of weight so you can then convert this to the big, bulging muscles you want to have. Indulge in sweets and junk food once in a while but generally stay within the neighborhood of lean meat and carbohydrates.

In building muscle mass, it is vital for you to keep track (at least in the earlier stage) of your calorie intake. The ratio for this should be 50% carbohydrates, 30% protein and 20% fat. Useful tip: a gram of protein and carbohydrates both are equal to four calories while a gram of fat is equal to nine calories.

As soon as you have your food plan in, let us concentrate on the next part of getting a great chest which is the appropriate workout regimen for you. Always start your training with thorough stretching and a sufficient warm up to get the blood flowing to the rest of your body. This prepares it for exercise, even optimizes the condition of your body so it will be prepared for the incoming barrage of physical pain and soreness.

Here is a program you can use to bulk up your chest: Begin with the bench press using 40 lbs (3 sets, 12 reps); dumbbell flyes using 10 lbs (3 sets, 12 reps); dumbbell pullovers using 20 lbs (3 sets, 12 reps). In a few weeks, you will be ready to add the following: incline bench press using 30 lbs (3 sets, 12 reps); and decline bench press using 20 lbs (3 sets, 12 reps). As you progress, monitor the development of your strength because you will soon be lifting higher weights, even if the reps are lowered.

Keep your body challenged to perform its best by altering your workout program every few weeks. Train your chest muscles using different angles (flat, incline, decline) to give it a better burn. Dumbbell flyes isolate the pecs effectively so always have a variation of this in your routine.

Observe that you do not risk under training your other body parts even if your main objective is to build chest muscles. You don't want to be the man with a barrel chest walking around in chopsticks legs right? Set aside two to three days training the other muscle groups.

So there you go, focus on building muscle mass, eat right and execute the drills in correct form? soon you will get that barrel chest you?ve always wanted. There's only one more tip you need to remember, enjoy! This will be one of your most rewarding experiences yet. Don?t give up and see the fruits of your labor before you know it.
