Muscle Building Workout Tips: Maintaining Your Focus

I want to ask you a quick question…

Have you been able to pack on at least a good 15-25 pounds of clean, muscular body weight since you began your muscle building workout?

Are you upping the poundages on your squat, deadlift, bench press, row (and every other major compound exercise) that all feel substantially heavy for your body?

Have your muscle building workout routines added at least a couple of inches or more to all of your major muscle groups?

Are your clothes starting to feel tighter? Have your  family and friends begun to notice changes in your physique? Are you now  beginning to gain a reputation as a muscular guy that people aspire to look like?

If you didn’t answer “yes” to the questions I just asked, then worrying about about the smaller details of your physique is really a waste of time at this stage.

Because I’ve been writing about muscle building workout tips for years, I get all sorts of emails from aspiring natural bodybuilders around the world. They send me questions such as…

• “How should I target my inner chest?”
• “Which muscle building workout is best to build up my lower biceps?”
• “My rear delts are lagging behind my front delts. What should I do?”

If you’re still in your bodybuilding “youth” and don’t already have a considerable amount of muscle mass to show for your efforts, I would strongly suggest forgetting about these types of questions and eliminating them from your mind until you have acquired some mass.

Why do I say this?

It’s because getting distracted, and moving your focus onto these minor and trivial issues, will only keep you the most important and immediate task at hand.

And what is this important and immediate task, exactly?

It’s to pack as much raw, powerful muscle and strength onto your frame as humanly possible!

You heard me. I want you to ignore about the nitty-gritty details of whether your triceps are in the correct proportion to your biceps, or whether your chest is measuring up to your shoulders. Focus on these issues down the road. Until you’ve thickened up your entire body as a whole to a significant degree, it’s just not worth obsessing over.

If you’re still a relative beginner and have been training for less than 12 months, don’t worry about the smaller details of your physique. Instead, concentrate on the most obvious issues at hand…

Which means getting yourself onto a smart, sensible muscle building workout schedule — and sticking to it!

For now, you should write down every single workout that you perform and focus all of your energy on adding as much weight to the bar on a consistent basis as you possibly can.

Grind out all of the biggest, most difficult compound exercises and blast through those discomfort zones with passion and intensity.

You also need to spend more time and thought in the kitchen, so that you pack in at least 5 or 6 properly balanced muscle building meals every day of the week, every week of the month and every month of the year.

Drink your water, get your rest and take your supplements whenever necessary.

In other words: PAY YOUR DUES FIRST!

If you’re in this for the long haul (and you should be, as there are no temporary fixes to be had here), then get yourself on to the most efficient path possible. The most efficient path possible is the one that focuses on the fundamentals first, with a well-planned, consistent muscle building workout plan. You can choose to worry about the details later.

This is the attitude you need to bring to your muscle building workout plan. A guitar player wouldn’t attempt to learn Eddie Van Halen’s solos without learning basic chord shapes first — the same way you also shouldn’t try to fine-tune your physique until you have a considerable amount of foundational muscle to work with first.

Building muscle is not rocket-science, but it is a task that requires consistent willpower and determination. And until you’ve been “in the trenches” and have earned yourself an impressive and muscular body…

Stop over-analyzing… Stop obsessing over the wrong details… Stop spreading out your focus onto every single minute issue that pops up…

Get into the gym and TRAIN!
