For most people, getting great body building results through weight lifting and weight training is not as easy as copying the workout routines of professional body builders. Why not? 1. Genetics. No it isn't fair, but the fact is that those guys you see all oiled up on stage have a massive headstart in the form of very beneficial genes for muscle development. In light of this, what works for them will not necessarily work for you in your weight lifting and weight training sessions. 2. Metabolism. This is related to genetics but can also be affected by environmental factors, diet and disease. Metabolism refers to how our bodies break down the fuel we put into them, convert it to energy and store the resulting energy. For some people, the type of metabolism they have is a huge help in attaining a muscular body. For others, it is the biggest stumbling block they have. Does this mean that if these two factors are not working in our favor, that we have no hope of attaining a muscular physique? No, it just means that to succeed in this endeavor we have to approach it differently than Arnold Schwarzenegger did. If you follow the advice of pro bodybuilders who use $100,000 a year of steroids and have better muscle building genetics than 99.9% of the rest of us you are following the worst possible course. A pro bodybuilders workouts could kill the average guy. The amount of sets and reps they do and the number of days a week they train amounts to a lot more volume than most of us can recover from. You see steroids drastically improve your ability to recover from training and when you use them by the wheelbarrow full you can do everything wrong and still gain muscle. If you are not among the genetically blessed and are not using steroids (And Please Do Not!!) you do not have the benefit of unlimited recovery ability. You need to make the most out of every set and rep you do. You need to get in and out of the gym as quickly as possible so you can start the recovery process and start growing. You do not build muscle while you are training; you build muscle while you are recovering. And if you are constantly in a state of overtraining from doing more than your body can handle you will never be able to recover and thus never experience significant muscle growth. Fortunately even if you lack the genetics and the metabolism of a professional bodybuilder, and are smart enough not to get into steroid usage there is hope! There are balanced programs available for those of us without these blessings that can and do get amazing results.
