My Uncle Rory from Scotland was the only guy on either side of my family who could be considered big. Neither of my parents has ever weighed more than 140 pounds and nobody on either side, except me and my brother, ever even made it past 185. But Uncle Rory was different. He was not only big, but he was massive. He also taught me quite a bit about how to gain muscle fast.

My family and I went to Uncle Rory’s house for a backyard barbecue one summer day, as we had a million times before. When we arrived I went out to the garage gym looking for him and found Uncle Rory in the midst of his workout. He had just done a set of deadlifts and was pumped up to even larger proportions than normal.

“Haallo wee’yan. How ye gittin’ on?”

How often do you tell yourself you better go on a diet on Monday? How many different diets have you been on only to make you miserable and not work?

When I was younger I went on every diet that every became available! I was always going for the quick fix, and guess what, none of them worked for the long term. All they did was make me very hungry, miserable and then wrecked my metabolism for later in life.

After doing that for years and finally doing my own research whilst becoming a personal trainer I finally realized the damage I had been doing to my body. For the last 10 years I have focused on eating normal, healthy wholesome food without having to worry about it each day. I’m in much better shape than I have every been! So that’s why I am always trying to teach people about not

If you’re serious about making a solid commitment to a muscle-building program, you need to be very careful of who you take advice from. Bodybuilding and fitness is literally a multi-billion dollar industry with new websites popping up every single day.

Many of the so-called “experts” out there really don’t have a clue of what they’re talking about and are only motivated by pushing expensive pills, powders and “miracle programs” on you that you don’t really need.

If you don’t watch your step you may end up falling for some fatal muscle-building pitfalls that will literally destroy your gains.

In this article I’m going to expose 4 very common muscle-building myths in order to keep you on the proper path to the mind-blowing muscle and strength gains you deserve.

Myth #1: In order to build muscle, you must achieve a “pump” during your

There are many effective stretching techniques for your neck and back that are simple to do and produce results. These basic techniques are ideal for people who are new to stretching.

If you are looking for ways to get more from your workout routine, then think about dynamic stretching. While the term may not sound familiar, many of the actually exercises will. What the term refers to are really conventional stretches, however instead of holding the end position, you remain in constant motion. We have all learned many of them at some point in time and just never realized that the group had name.

Walking lunges are a familiar enough exercise for most people. It seems to be a favorite among junior high school gym teachers everywhere. To do it, you step far forward with one foot, then as you step down, continue descending towards the ground. You go down as low as you can without touching the floor, then bring yourself back up.

Every muscle between the hips and shoulders are included as well, as these muscles are referred to as the core muscles. Back pain can be a result of muscle imbalances caused by any of these core muscles. If the back of your thighs are weaker than the front of your

In the case of gaining muscle, most people believe that supplements are the most important part of the equation. However, this could not be any further from the truth.

Supplements are just additions to an already good nutritional and training program. Nutrition and training are the most important components of your bodybuilding program, with rest and recovery next to them. Once all of these aspects of your program are maximized, then you can begin considering adding supplements to your program.

Please understand that supplements do not make up for improper training, or lack thereof, or a low quality diet. Supplements only work when your diet plus your training program are optimal.

Watch the following video to find out what supplements really work and will be used most of the time…

It never occurred to her that they were 100% sugar and full of

What’s the one similarity that both famous bodybuilders and successful entrepreneurs share? A set goal.

Building muscle is similar to life: You can set definite goals after which you can systematically work towards achieving them, or you’ll be able to perform whichever exercise catches your fancy in a haphazard manner and totally waste your time at the gym.
