4-Week Muscle Building Program
Weeks 1 to
4
Start your muscle building program
with four days a week. We will be doing two exercises per
body part and we
will be doing four sets per exercise. You will be doing a rep
scheme of 15, 12, 10 and 8. The first set will be a warm up set and
it will help you to learn to control the weight, warm up the
muscles and get the pump started.
It is ok on the first set to use a
very light weight. This is only a warm up set. The next three sets
you will increase the weight you are using each time until you can
perform only the amount of reps recommended. We are not going to
failure at this point so make sure that when you have completed the
last rep you still could do another one.

There are others out there that
suggest your muscle building program should have you doing a
complete body workout each day for three days a week. This is one
option for you but I much prefer to limit the body parts worked out
each day to minimize injury, increase muscle memory and to help you
stay focused and motivated. It can be hard to train your muscles if
you are not giving them the attention they need to grow and get
ripped. We must focus on one muscle group at a time.
Sample Muscle Building
Program
4 sets of 15, 12, 10, 8
repetitions
·
Monday: Chest Bench
Press
Dips
These two muscle building exercises
will effectively workout your entire chest. They will also workout
your arms and your core stabilizing muscles. These are compound
exercises and are meant to give you an overall workout
experience.
·
Tuesday: Legs Squats
Lunges
Squats are the king of all compound
exercises and will not only build your legs but will also increase
your oxygen absorption and help to release the natural anabolic
hormones your body produces under the right conditions. Lunges will
not only help build your legs it will also help your balance, which
is so important to your workout success. It is these stabilizing
muscles that allow us to reach our true potential and help reduce
injury.
·
Wednesday: Back Dead Lifts
Bent Over Rows
When you say the word
dead lifts people sometimes cringe. If you’re like me I felt
the same way at first until I started doing them as a main
stay of my back workout. There is no better exercise to
include in your muscle building program. Let me ask you a
question. Have you ever seen a skinny power lifter? These
guys are huge and you know what exercise they do on a regular
basis? You guessed it the “Dead Lift”.
Dead lifts combined
with bent over rows is all you need to do right now to blast
your back and get you on your way to an impressive muscular
physique.
·
Thursday: Cardio
This day is up to you
what type of cardio you want to do. You can ride the
stationary bike. You can jog or swim or even do aerobics. The
point for including this in your muscle building program is
to help burn fat and to get your wind up to be able to handle
and power your muscle building program. Neglect this and you
are limiting your chances of success.
Take the next three days off. Give
your body a chance to recuperate and to grow. Your body doesn’t
grow while you’re lifting you’re body grows while you’re
resting.
You may have noticed that this muscle
building program doesn’t include and arm training. The reason for
this is that by doing the compound exercises you are also blasting
your arms. There is no reason at this point to do any isolation
exercise. We are trying to build a big solid core of muscle and
help insure our success. Your arms will grow. I guarantee it.
Remember to keep your workouts to a maximum of 30 minutes per
workout.
I have used this muscle building
program for a number of years and I can attest to the fact that it
worked for me. There are other muscle building programs that work
very well and you can tailor them to your specific needs. Don’t be
afraid to try different things. Your body responds best when you
shock and confuse your muscles.
Good luck and great
training.
