Lots of people, particularly about this time of year (how are those New Year’s resolutions going?) set out to alter their body image. One factor that comes up time and time again is the fact that they want to appear lean and muscular, even if they’re not actually that strong they don’t really care. The objective of appearing lean and muscular is excellent… if it’s a prolonged term objective, just do not set out thinking that you are going to totally change your body in four weeks of strenuous physical exercise, because it’s not going to happen and will stunt or end your enthusiasm.
The human body has evolved over many thousands of years. It’s had to cope with occasions of both feast and famine, different foods and a collection of unpredictable conditions. If the body had adapted to put on muscle really fast it would have meant the likelihood of survival in a number of conditions would have been difficult. For example in harsher parts of the world and in times of famine it is essential for the body to keep as much energy as extra weight as it can, that additional layer of fat serves to both keep us warm and to provide calories when food is much more hard to find as compared to normal.
With all that said it’s nonetheless perfectly possible to train in such a way that your body will put on muscle at an exceptional rate. Rusty Moore produced the Visual Impact Muscle Building course for just that objective. Visual Impact Muscle Building uses 3 stages that tells you how to get muscles fast and get lean quick. I’ll do a write up on the method in a later post but take a look at his videos at the link above where he gives away some truly excellent info!
