Build Massive Muscle: 3 Reasons You’re Not

Many guys that want to build massive muscle are making things too complicated. Building muscle is not that complicated people… so stop trying to make it so confusing. In this article I want to go over three reasons guys who are trying to build muscle mass are failing, still weak and still small. And no, this is not a weight lifting article with complicated theory and equations. Just plain old common sense.

You Are Exercising Your Brain, Not Your Body

Dr. Alexis Carrel said, “Man cannot remake himself without suffering. For he is both the marble and the sculptor.” What this means is it is not good enough to know how to build muscle, you actually have to put your body through the suffering necessary to get the muscles to grow. You’ve got to actually DO the muscle building workouts for the muscles to grow.

What I see is a lot of guys becoming experts at muscle growth. They can talk about muscle fibers, workout program theory and quote scientific text. They spend all their time becoming a knowledgeable sculptor, but never take hammer and chisel to the marble. This is what brings me to the next point.

The Internet Is Keeping Your Muscles From Growing

While gathering the knowledge to make muscles grow, they frequent the Internet with its websites, blogs and forums. They read every article they can get their hands on. Thy frequent forums and participate in unproductive discussions about pinkie position on the bench press.

Well, as far as I know, surfing the web and clicking the keyboard of your computer is never going to build muscle. I’ve seen guys on forums post their workout, do it once and then make a post about how it didn’t work and they need suggestions. Here is my suggestion… stop sitting in front of the computer and get in some quality training time.

You Are Following The Wrong Muscle Building Program

Let’s say you are not making the first two mistakes and you’ve picked a muscle building workout program and are actually performing it… but still not getting the results you want. The reason is you are probably following the wrong workout program. It is not really your fault.

You see, most of the workout programs out there are based on bodybuilding programs. Professional bodybuilding workout programs require hours a day in the gym. Most guys just don’t have 2-3 hours to spend in the gym lifting weights. And what is maybe more important, they don’t even want to be bodybuilders.

The truth is, most guys I know want bigger, stronger, more athletic muscle. They want the kind of muscle that not only looks great and fills out their T-shirt, but that helps them perform their best too. So, stop over-analizing everything. Stop surfing the net and learning more stuff so you can over-analize your workout. And you should stop following workouts of bodybuilders that requires more time than you have to spend in the gym. I’m sure you’ll find that using these common sense rules will help you finally build massive muscle.
