    Good Health is the Best Wealth
    Bodybuilding is probably the most trending yet healthiest activity that any millennial can perform. Among many things that people want in their life, building muscles and gaining strength is on the top priority due to the look good factor . Gaining muscles is not just an indicator of strength but also an overall fitness of the body.
    Studies show that with one-third of world's population is considered obese and 75% of them are considered to be overweight in some way, then there is a conscious effort amongst a majority of the population to change their lifestyle and get back into shape.
    According to a research, the average amount of time spent exercising each day, for those aged over 15 who exercise regularly, is between 30 and 59 minutes.
    Less than 5% of adults participate in 30 minutes of physical activity each day and only one in three adults receive the recommended amount of physical activity each week.
    1 in every 7 people is a member of a gym.
    More than 80% of adults do not meet the guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities, and more than 80% of adolescents do not do enough physical activity to meet the guidelines for youth.
    The membership dropout rate within the first eight weeks of joining a gym is about 80%.
    Many people are fumbling with gym equipment, training sessions, personal trainers, supplements to get the lean, toned and desired muscular physique.
    But what they lack is the right guidance and knowledge it takes to achieve their physical goals.

      Introduction

      Bodybuilding is probably the healthiest activity that any individual can perform.

      Among many things that people want in their life, building muscles and gaining strength is on the top. Gaining muscles is not just an indicator of strength but also an overall fitness of the body.

      You most likely don't want to be all show and no go. You’re looking to get stronger and build a better-looking body that can also get things done. Achieving that requires a comprehensive mixture of both muscles- and performance-based training. That’s what separates this book from the rest: It gives you the best of both worlds, whereas most books on building muscle are essentially bodybuilding books that neglect the performance and conditioning components.

      The training strategies, workout routines, and nutritional tips will challenge you on multiple levels so you will build the physique you’re after while improving your overall athleticism. So, not only will you look better, but you can also be better at every athletic pursuit in your sight.

      It won’t be easy. Hard work and consistency are what you need for growth and improvement. Whatever the methods employed, there can’t be a shortcut in their approach to gain muscles. It is an exercise that requires time and patience on your part.

      You cannot gain the muscles all of a sudden. All said and done, there are few tricks or secrets that can surely make your task that much easier. These secrets have been widely accepted by many fitness experts world over and can be tried out by anyone.

      This book will help you get the muscle—and far more. The training concepts and workout programs along with nutritional tips will improve your athletic performance and boost your conditioning while you pack on muscle and enhance your strength.

      The information in this book is intended for both the beginners and experienced fitness seeker and will safely guide him or her to the intermediate and early advanced stages of development.

      Keep in mind that it is not important to gain muscles and strength but also to retain them as long as possible. After following a number of methods to reach there, it becomes all the more important to keep repeating the methods at optimum levels.

      We hope that you enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

      Chapter – 1

      Muscles and Strength Building – An Overview.

      ––––––––

      Building and maintaining muscle mass is an important component of a well-rounded fitness program. Some people, however, tend to avoid this aspect of fitness because they are afraid that extensive technical knowledge is required to understand how to build muscle and strength. These fears are groundless and unnecessary. But before we dive in deep, let’s start with the basics...

      1.1 Muscles – Introduction and Types:

      Muscle is a soft tissue found in most animals. Muscle cells contain protein filaments of actin and myosin that slide past one another, producing a contraction that changes both the length and the shape of the cell. Muscles function to produce force and motion. They are primarily responsible for maintaining and changing posture, locomotion, as well as the movement of internal organs, such as the contraction of the heart and the movement of food through the digestive system via peristalsis.

      The human body has three types of muscle tissue-

      - skeletal − cardiac − smooth

      They differ from one another in their microscopic anatomy, location, and control by the nervous and endocrine (hormonal) systems.

      Cardiac muscle tissue forms most of the heart.

      Smooth muscle tissue is located for the most part in the abdomen around and in most of the organs.

      Skeletal muscle is quite different; it can be made to relax and contract voluntarily and is therefore under our control. It is known as voluntary as opposed to involuntary muscle. Skeletal muscle is so named because it is attached primarily to bones and therefore contraction of various muscle groups enables us to move about voluntarily.

      1.2 Diagrammatic Representation of Major Skeletal Muscles:

      The muscles that move the human skeleton vary greatly in shape and size and extend to every part of our bodies. The muscular system contains over 600 skeletal muscles alone, which make up about 40% of our mass. Blood vessels and nerves run to every muscle, helping control and regulate each muscle’s function.

      Muscles are always attached at two or more places. When the muscle contracts, the attachment points are pulled closer together; when it relaxes, the attachment points move apart.

      Muscles contract and relax to move bones. Muscles contract when messages travel from nerves to muscles and trigger chemical reactions. These reactions change the internal structures of muscle fiber cells, a process that shortens the muscle. The muscle fibers relax when the nervous system signal is no longer present, thus reversing the shortening.

      1.3 The Physiology behind the Growth of Muscle Mass.

      After you work out, your body repairs or replaces damaged muscle fibers through a cellular process where it fuses muscle fibers together to form new muscle protein strands or myofibrils.

      These repaired myofibrils increase in thickness and number to create muscle hypertrophy (growth). Muscle grows whenever the rate of muscle protein synthesis is greater than the rate of muscle protein breakdown. This adaption, however, does not happen while you actually lift the weights. Instead, it occurs while you rest.

      When weightlifters engage in intense exercises using heavy weight they actually cause microscopic damage to the muscle fibers themselves. They tear the fibers.

      This initially results in some necrosis of the damaged muscle fibers and initiation of an inflammatory response in the area. Inflammation causes an increased blood supply to the damaged area which brings with it a host of substances that play an integral role in repair and actual growth.

      In an attempt to repair or replace the damaged fibers the body responds by activating satellite cells. These are cells on the outside of the injured muscle fiber. Each satellite cell has one nucleus and has the ability to replicate by dividing. These cells, which are similar to stem cells, subsequently mature into normal muscle cells.

      They then fuse to each other and to the existing muscle fibers to form new muscle strands called myofibrils. The muscles thus increase in size as more fibers are created.

      It is this activation of the satellite cells that mature into muscle fibers that makes muscles grow in size.

      Activating these satellite cells may be the difference between what allows certain genetic freaks to grow massive muscles and what makes other people hard-gainers.

      Therefore, the more you can activate these satellite cells, the more you’ll be able to grow.

      1.4 What is Strength Building?

      Strength building as the name suggests it is the process of enhancing overall body strength. It can be achieved by strength training just like muscle building.

      Strength training is a type of physical exercise specializing in the use of resistance to induce muscular contraction which builds the strength, anaerobic endurance, and size of skeletal muscles.

      In simple words, a method of improving muscular strength by gradually increasing the ability to resist force through the use of free weights, machines, or the person's own body weight. Strength training sessions are designed to impose increasingly greater resistance, which in turn stimulates the development of muscle strength to meet the added demand.

      When properly performed, strength training can provide significant functional benefits and improvement in overall health and well-being including:

      −Increased bone, muscle, tendon, and ligament strength, and toughness, −Improved joit function,

      −Reduced potential for injury −Increased bone density,

      −Increased metabolism, −Increased fitness

      −And improved cardiac function.

      Training commonly uses the technique of progressively increasing the force output of the muscle through incremental weight increases and uses a variety of exercises and types of equipment to target specific muscle groups.

      Strength training is primarily an anaerobic activity, although some proponents have adapted it to provide the benefits of aerobic exercise through circuit training.
