Consistency and effort : key to build muscle

1) Consistency


By this I mean
that you workout on a regular
basis over an extended period of
time. You need to decide how
often you can workout (and for
how long each session) and then
stick to that schedule as much as
possible. The only way to
stimulate your muscles to higher
levels of growth and strength is
to regularly challenge them. By
regularly, I mean at least 3-4
times a week over a period of
months (and years).

2) Effort -

This component goes
hand in hand with Consistency. If
you’re working out on a regular
basis, you’ve got the first step
down. Now, you need to make
sure that you’re putting in the
effort and challenging yourself
while you’re exercising. A
workout is called a workout
because it’s “work”. Your heart
rate and breathing rate should
increase, your muscles should
fatigue, and you should sweat.
The people I see at the gym
strolling on the treadmill while
yammering away on their cell
phones or the people in the
weight room just going through
the motions with a bored look it will not help in building muscle

Thanx and train hard
