PART 1: HOW YOUR BODY GROWS MUSCLE

Many new lifters believe the act of lifting weights is what builds muscle and to build muscle
faster they need to train their muscles as frequently as possible. While a solid weight lifting
session does kick-start the muscle growth process, it actually causes more muscle damage
than growth.

It’s the events taking place after your workouts, where your focus is on recovery, that causes
your muscles to repair and grow larger. You can think of it as a three-step process - although
it’s a little more complicated:

1. You have an awesome workout and leave the gym pumped up.
2. You nourish your body giving it all the nutrients it needs to grow.
3. You go to bed and get plenty of sleep. While asleep your muscles repair themselves
and grow larger by the night.

It’s in steps two and three where gains are made, step one is only the start of the process.
That’s why gaining muscle takes time and it’s important to have realistic expectations. 0.5-1lb
of lean muscle gains per month is a good goal. It might not seem like much, but 2-3 years
from now you’re looking at 18-36lbs of true gains.

Stay tuned, tomorrow we’ll show you how to choose a workout and maximize your time in
the gym.
