whats the most effective way to build muscles?
Question:
Answers:
30% Training. You need to break down old muscle fiber to build a new one. In order to break it down, you need to challenge your muscle by training with heavier weights(8-10 reps max) and lighter weight(15-30reps) alternately. Do practice proper form to minimize injury.
30% Rest. In order for the muscle to grow, you cannot keep breaking it down. Muscles need time to recover and grow. Do alternate body parts workout every other day and get enough ZZZ(9 hours daily)
40% Nutrition. To build something, you need raw materials, muscle are made from protein; thus, consume extra protein(approx 1 gr per lb of body weight, I found that I need less than that), but not so much, you start straining your kidneys.
Other Answers:
swimming, push ups, pull ups, sit ups, running
The most effective way to build muscles is by resistance training i.e. weightlifting. Check your local gym for more information. You are correct that building muscles is the best way to lose weight. This is because as muscles recover from weightlifting and develop, they burn more and more calories around the clock, even while you sleep.
