Bodybuilding And Your Training Errors (part 2)

It is a proven fact that our post training body has the ability to synthesis more protein. It is also a fact that our muscle tissue after training is a lot more sensitive to insulin and that the simple carbs tend to stock themselves up with glycogen rather than replenishing our body fat levels.

Just this useful information has given the insight to many bodybuilders to get into a routine of eating after training and cutting back on basic nutrient requirements at other times. The fact is that you need carbs a long time prior to training just to be able to complete the session and you require a high blood pool of aminos whilst training, which will have come from protein intake literally hours before training begins.

Take your free radical scavenging goodies before you train so they are actually in the blood stream having an effect at the time of greatest oxidative stress (during and immediately after training) instead of having them sit in your stomach digesting while your workout damaged body screams for some help.

A firm eating schedule should be worked out depending on your daily routine. Let's say that you are sat by a computer for several hours in the morning, and then your carb intake should be reduced while your protein intake should be increased. If your afternoon consists of a punishing workout, then your complex carb intake should be increased as well as fluids and antioxidants, and you will also need a mix of proteins. Post workout nutrition should be supplemented strategically based on your requirements for the coming hours.

It is a rare occurrence that a competing bodybuilder admits to being outclassed by his competitors. You will normally hear a whole range of comments and conspiracy theories about the judges or the organisers. Competitors will think of virtually anything as an excuse for their own under performing flabby physiques that couldn't win the show.

This of course is the result of how bodybuilding is actually judged which could be improved enormously. The judges should be obliged to take down written notes that broke down the score according to each physique. These figures could then be scrutinised by competitors after the event so they could see what had been lacking. A judge will always refer to a poor diet from what he has seen, and this would help competitors a great deal in preparation for future events.

Bodybuilders are renowned for fooling themselves into thinking that they are actually making real progress. The reason being is that this sport has nothing to offer as far as a true guide is concerned for judging muscle gains. So what should a bodybuilder do to compensate this?...Well a cool way to see your own gains is to have a couple of photos taken each year in the same light with the same pose. That way you can keep track better on physique and don't forget to do a fat content test as well.

Just to sum up then, lean mass gains and/or body fat losses lead to muscular girth increases although the waist will hardly change. If can't manage to loose fat or gain muscle, the question arises... "What the hell are you training for?" Bodybuilding means lean and large muscles, so if you aren't making any progress then you are not bodybuilding and that is what it is all about.

It always annoys me when I hear this and know straight away that the competitor has tripped up on nutrition and training and that' the real reason behind zero gains. You won't often see on a bodybuilding contest judging sheet that a competitor has lost marks for being too muscular or lean, so what are the main objectives? Well I'll tell you...ALWAYS more muscle and better condition.

There's no doubt in my mind that most bodybuilders are completely nuts. Well that's by Albert Einstein's definition of the word who said that insanity was the constant repetition of something while expecting different results. It sounds to me like a bodybuilder carry out the same pattern of train, eat, and train and so on. How many times have you seen a bodybuilder in the gym who always looks the same but oddly enough just carry on with the same training techniques and nutrition routines?

If you are not making gradual progress in the gym then you need to change something or you will look the same in five years as you do right now. Chances are pretty good that what you need to change is your training, if you've been at it long enough to have been stale for years then you had better have a good handle on your nutrition.

You might also have heard some idiot saying that they just haven't got the genes for bodybuilding. This is a really worrying sign and the truth is that they just haven't got a clue on how to train, eat correctly or recover properly. So how on earth can they possibly reach their maximum possible gains regardless of their size? So let me just resize that again, I mean size doesn't matter when it comes to being able to make muscle gains.
