When it comes to muscle building, my buddy Ben walks the talk, SO I asked him to write this article for you. Once you understand the eye-opening principle he shared with me, youre going to unlock pounds of new muscle growth... Enjoy! HOW TO TRIGGER EXTREME MUSCLE GAIN WITHOUT THE FAT By IFBB Pro bodybuilder Ben Pakulski If youre looking to gain ANY amount of muscle, whether it be 10, 20, or even 30 lbs of muscle, this is the info that has been missing... If youre serious about building your body... ...you better except that it is a game of extremes! Moderation is NOT going to get you anything better than a mediocre body... (if youre lucky). Excellence requires strategic massive action. Whether its your diet or your training, you need to be ready to get outside your comfort zone. Simply put, your body DOES NOT want to build muscle. Muscle is inefficient and calorically very expensive. Which is why i think the idea of traditional bulking is about as current as Mullets and Moustaches... Dont get me wrong, phases of concentrated muscle growth ARE essential. However, Ive discovered that there is a much better way to do it... Its based on the very well known scientific fact that Growth is NEVER linear. Meaning that growth is cyclical, and literally can never be continuous. Knowing this fact, leads us to intelligently seek a solution to effective and fast-muscle building. The answer: A phenomenon called Cyclical Bulking... Cyclical bulking has been around for decades in advanced training groups and intelligent athletic circles around the world. Athletes and successful bodybuilders have been using these techniques to pack on muscle as fast as humanly possible, while avoiding the pitfalls of traditional bulking and keeping the fat gain to a minimum. You see, your body is massively impacted hormonally by what you eat and how you train. Eating high calories and training like an animal sends signals of anabolism (growth!) to every cell in your body, however this doesnt last forever, there is a catch... At some point your body stops receiving those growth signals. Just like a nagging girlfriend or pestering mother, eventually we just tune these things out. This is a HUGE problem for guys looking to pack on muscle and not get fat. With traditional bulking, your body stops hearing the signals that the big four hormones are sending. Your body has become desensitized to the hormones and you no longer effectively trigger anabolism of muscle tissue. In fact, you actually start doing the exact opposite and start triggering muscle breakdown and fat accumulation. Bad news! Cyclical Bulking sets you up to maximize the anabolism of growth phases, while teaching you when to hit the Reset button and allow your body to go through a brief, yet absolutely necessary, resensitization period to your big four hormones. The BIG FOUR by the way, are testosterone, growth hormone, insulin and IGF-1. Now, how do you pull this off? How do you get the rapid muscle growth of bulking without destroying your hormone profile? Simple. You use short periods of EXTREMES. Bursts of massive calorie surplus. Then dial back to periods of extremely low calories to reset and resensitize. (...imagine how a bodybuilder might do it while dieting hard for a contest or guest appearance, then jumping back into a massive caloric excess...)
