Muscle & Strength

The long game

Many people are fearful to gain muscle or ‘not get too big’ as if it’s easy thing to do. In reality, there are many factors involved that most people fall well short of to gain even a modest amount of muscle.

It’s not as simple as turning up once a week and expecting a transformation. It can take years (not months) to put on a decent amount of muscle tissue.

In fact, building muscle and getting stronger is one of the healthiest things you can do.

Where people often go wrong

Sub-optimal lifestyle
Late nights, excessive alcohol and high stress are all big no's for muscle gain. If you're serious about gaining muscle the lifestyle has to align.

Misaligned Nutrition
Many people miss this important aspect of muscle gain. You need to eat for muscle. Poor food choices, not getting enough of the right calories will hinder your efforts.

Ineffective Training
Think you can pick up a dumbbell and build muscle that easy? If you don't put the time and effort in to your training you will not give your muscles enough signals to grow.
