Book excerpt: A state-of-the-art weight-lifting and nutritional blueprint for "skinny" guys who want to pack on muscle Let's face it, naturally skinny guys are at a distinct genetic disadvantage when it comes to building muscle mass. But with the proper advice, these "hardgainers" definitely can realize their fitness goals. In Scrawny to Brawny, the authors draw on their years of practical experience as private strength and nutrition coaches to provide hardgainers with: • A progressive, state-of-the-art program that optimizes results with shorter, less frequent workouts that maximize compound exercises • A unique, action-based perspective on nutrition that shows how to prepare quick muscle-building meals and snacks-and how to take advantage of several critical times in the day when muscle growth can be stimulated by food intake • Vital information on how to identify and fix any weak links in their physiques that may be precursors to injury Designed not only for frustrated adult hardgainers but also--with its strong anti-steroid message--a terrific book for the large teen market, Scrawny to Brawny fills a significant gap in the weight-lifting arsenal.

If you want to start building as much muscle as possible and as quickly as possible, then keep reading... Have you been going to the gym for several months now, yet you feel as if you don't look any different? Or maybe you feel as if, for the amount of time you put into the gym, you should be a lot bigger or a lot more muscular than you currently are... And if you've ever wondered if you're missing a piece of the puzzle, know that I once felt the same way. But if you are missing a piece of the puzzle, I can assure you that it is not some secret training program, technique, or supplement... Because building muscle isn't as complicated as the fitness industry wants you to believe. There are no more remaining "secrets" that you need to unravel, regardless of whatever the next fitness guru tells you. Truth is the health and fitness industry is a lucrative market that is being capitalized on by marketers... And people like us - people who want to become the best versions of ourselves - are being taken advantage of and sold the same concepts repackaged under different names. Other times, we are lied to about our natural potential, and oversold the benefits that their products or supplements can bring us. But building muscle is actually a really simple process. You already know what to do. You just lack the confidence to do it. This book will dispel all the nonsense and reveal the truth about building muscle so that you can stop wasting your time trying to identify what works and what doesn't, and start sculpting a more muscular, more confident and better you. With references to over 20 of the best scientific studies available, discover: How to avoid the most common mistake people make with their training and programming (pg. 8) Why "new and revolutionary" is a marketing tool, and just how old the newest training revolution really is (pg. 4) How to tell good research from bad, the different levels of scientific evidence, and how to properly gauge "backed by science" and "research-based" claims (pg. 29) What the ideal rep range for muscle growth really is (hint: it's not 8-12 reps!) (pg. 68) How to quantify your training the correct way using the new, scientifically-accepted formula for volume (pg. 81) How you can make up to 63% more gains changing only 1 training variable (pg. 65) Why strength training and periodization is unnecessary for muscle growth (pg. 73, 94) The advantage hardgainers have when it comes to building muscle (pg. 118) What supplements you should consider, especially if you don't eat animal products (one of which can alleviate symptoms of mental retardation) (pg. 130) Why bench presses are not enough for chest development; the underused triceps extension for better triceps development; and why overhead presses may be a waste of time (pg. 144) The laws of muscle growth - understand and apply these 2-3 concepts and you WILL build muscle (pg. 18) Not only is everything in this book backed by science, but there are also observations from World renowned coaches. So even if you have yet to find success with any training program, this book will give you the tools and motivation you need to succeed.

Download or read book Science and Development of Muscle Hypertrophy written by Brad J. Schoenfeld and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2016-06-24 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muscle hypertrophy—defined as an increase in muscular size—is one of the primary outcomes of resistance training. Science and Development of Muscle Hypertrophy is a comprehensive compilation of science-based principles to help professionals develop muscle hypertrophy in athletes and clients. With more than 825 references and applied guidelines throughout, no other resource offers a comparable quantity of content solely focused on muscle hypertrophy. Readers will find up-to-date content so they fully understand the science of muscle hypertrophy and its application to designing training programs. Written by Brad Schoenfeld, PhD, a leading authority on muscle hypertrophy, this text provides strength and conditioning professionals, personal trainers, sport scientists, researchers, and exercise science instructors with a definitive resource for information regarding muscle hypertrophy—the mechanism of its development, how the body structurally and hormonally changes when exposed to stress, ways to most effectively design training programs, and current nutrition guidelines for eliciting hypertrophic changes. The full-color book offers several features to make the content accessible to readers: • Research Findings sidebars highlight the aspects of muscle hypertrophy currently being examined to encourage readers to re-evaluate their knowledge and ensure their training practices are up to date. • Practical Applications sidebars outline how to apply the research conclusions for maximal hypertrophic development. • Comprehensive subject and author indexes optimize the book’s utility as a reference tool. • An image bank containing most of the art, photos, and tables from the text allows instructors and presenters to easily teach the material outlined in the book. Although muscle hypertrophy can be attained through a range of training programs, this text allows readers to understand and apply the specific responses and mechanisms that promote optimal muscle hypertrophy in their athletes and clients. It explores how genetic background, age, sex, and other factors have been shown to mediate the hypertrophic response to exercise, affecting both the rate and the total gain in lean muscle mass. Sample programs in the text show how to design a three- or four-day-per-week undulating periodized program and a modified linear periodized program for maximizing muscular development. Science and Development of Muscle Hypertrophy is an invaluable resource for strength and conditioning professionals seeking to maximize hypertrophic gains and those searching for the most comprehensive, authoritative, and current research in the field.

Book excerpt: Building Mental Muscle is one of the most stimulating books ever written about how the brain works and how you can maintain, even increase, your own mental ability. It will help you develop skills in six important areas: * Memory * Emotions * Language * Math * Visualization * Executive Planning & Social Interaction The authors have distilled the latest findings in brain research into fascinating short reports accessible to all readers, adding exercises and self-tests designed to stimulate the cells in different brain zones. A skill used in one domain can cross over into another: For example, when you learn the pattern of number intervals in mathematics, you may perceive a pattern of musical intervals for the first time, and thus enjoy music even more. The exercises and puzzles are intriguing challenges; the self-tests offer many opportunities to rate your social intelligence, take your personality inventory, and gauge working memory. For anyone interested in self-improvement and in how the brain really works, Building Mental Muscle is essential reading. Some of the research findings in Building Mental Muscle include: * The simple lifestyle changes that can boost the rate at which your brain grows neurons to keep your memory sharp * Ways to trick your emotional brain into storing new information permanently and how to retrieve it from memory when needed * How women's and men's brains process information differently * How brains respond to stress, solve problems, recognize faces, and handle fear * The discovery of a hitherto unknown class of receptor cells in your eyes that your brain uses to set its own internal clock * How to change your mood without drugs or therapy * What you can do to combat or even reverse the gradual decline of cognitive skills as you age Your doctor may not have read about some of the research findings in this book.

This book was released on 1999-09-15 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a commonly held belief that athletes, particularly body builders, have greater requirements for dietary protein than sedentary individuals. However, the evidence in support of this contention is controversial. This book is the latest in a series of publications designed to inform both civilian and military scientists and personnel about issues related to nutrition and military service. Among the many other stressors they experience, soldiers face unique nutritional demands during combat. Of particular concern is the role that dietary protein might play in controlling muscle mass and strength, response to injury and infection, and cognitive performance. The first part of the book contains the committee's summary of the workshop, responses to the Army's questions, conclusions, and recommendations. The remainder of the book contains papers contributed by speakers at the workshop on such topics as, the effects of aging and hormones on regulation of muscle mass and function, alterations in protein metabolism due to the stress of injury or infection, the role of individual amino acids, the components of proteins, as neurotransmitters, hormones, and modulators of various physiological processes, and the efficacy and safety considerations associated with dietary supplements aimed at enhancing performance.

However, lots of people tend to avoid this aspect because they are afraid that they will need an extensive knowledge to understand how to build muscles else they will have too much of them and develop an over-bulky body built.

However, if you want a bigger bulk of muscles added to your physique, you can be sure to have it for that is always possible. Your goal must depend on the type of weightlifting program that you will adopt which will, of course, determine the size, strength, and endurance of your muscles. This eBook, "Mass Muscle Building Bible: Elite Guide to Mass Muscle Building for Optimum Results" will provide you an insight on how your muscles are developed through weightlifting and with the proper way of doing it, you will achieve whatever goal you have to build mass muscles the way you want them to be. It is not difficult to build muscles through weightlifting nor is it possible to create a weightlifting program that will allow you to significantly strengthen your muscles without acquiring excessive size. Conversely, if your goal is to build muscles and add some bulk to your build that can be achievable with the proper weightlifting program. This book will further help you understand the theory behind how and why your muscles grow to allow you to develop a body-building program that will allow you to achieve your ideal body type. Regardless of your end-goal, building mass muscle will help improve your overall health, improve physical appearance, increase bone density, as well as improve your confidence, motor coordination, and aesthetic ability.
