Womens Bodybuilding Blog

I wanted to take the time to share some bodybuilding advice for women. I love this sport because it offers my life this new challenge for me to do. After you settle into a career everyday is exactly the same. It seems like all your goals disappear and you’re just floating along. This has given me a purpose that has pushed me in new directions, allowing me to strive to new highs. If you’re looking for a new challenge, than bodybuilding may work for you.

The best bodybuilding advice for women is to understand Charles Darwin. We have less testosterone than men, but we still fall under the simple principles of Darwin. He taught us that the animals in an ecosystem must adapt or die to a changing environment. This is essentially the same philosophy to building muscle. You need to constantly change the environment of these muscles, so they’re forced to grow or adapt. That’s all it takes.

My last piece of bodybuilding advice for women is to have a proper diet. Sit down and plan out your daily meals that you’re going to eat and focus on the necessities of building muscle. Doing this will give you great results.

I’m going to share with you a little about muscle building fitness for women. When it comes to muscle building, most women are extremely afraid of this. There seems to be a societal stigmatism associated with women and putting on muscle. I want to explain that there really isn’t and all women out there should want to be more fit and achieve more with their body. It isn’t going to make you less feminine. In fact, putting on more muscle can give you a lean body and make you a more efficient fat burning machine. I’m going to share with you a little about what I’ve learned in my time doing this.

Most women will start in the gym doing very basic isolated exercises. It’s just small weight, working very little muscles and it is really pointless. I have noticed though that women are more likely to do weight lifting workouts for their legs. At least they identify that it works. The two in particular that you should start doing are squats and deadlifts. These will give you a strong core, as well as making you burn a lot of calories. If you’re looking for a nice butt, squats are your best friend.

Your diet is just as important as your workout. If you’re not eating properly, you’re not going to get proper results. The first thing you should be doing is eating smaller meals more often. This gives your body a consistent flow of nutrients, as well as, increasing your overall metabolism rate.

I’m going to share some tips for beginning bodybuilding for women. I have to first state that this is a tough sport. It’s not like other sports where you are in battle with other people. Bodybuilding is a battle with yourself and when you make it to a competition, you’re just showing off the result of that battle.  The reason this is a tough sport is because it is a 24hr a day thing. It’s not like you goto the gym, do your thing and you go back to the real world. You have to workout properly, eat properly, rest properly. You have a full day of activity. IF you’re looking for a challenge, I suggest you continue reading.

The best beginning bodybuilding for women advice I’ll give is on your diet. It needs to be perfect. You can have the best workout ever, but if your diet is poor, so will your results. Conversely, if your diet is perfect and your workout is bad, you’ll have pretty good results. You need to have a good diet. The best thing you can do is start eating smaller meals more often. This will give your body a nice flow of nutrients to allow your body to continuously repair muscle.

When it comes to working out, I’ve found shorter and more intense is better. That means you can’t waste energy on isolated exercises that just work one or two muscles. You need to stick to the compound ones that work huge chunks of the body like squats and deadlifts.

I’m going to share with you how to be a successful female bodybuilder. This is a very tough sport that isn’t for the mentally weak. You have to have an unshakable determination to be successful in this. You’re going to have good days and bad days. A lot of people quit on those bad days, but you need to just keep moving forward no matter how bad you feel or how grim the outlook is. That is what I’ve had to go through in this process. I’ve learned a lot as I’ve gone forward, but the biggest lesson I’ve learned is being mentally tough. You can know all the information in being successful, but if you’re mentally weak, you’ll fail.

I think when you’re at the gym, you really need to avoid the “groupthink” philosophy. Everyone seems to do the same exercises that the majority is doing. You’ll notice that the majority of people aren’t muscle built, which should raise a flag in your head. It’s the ones that do extremely compound exercises that end up being big. Most people won’t do these because they’re simply too lazy. Deadlifts and squats will put on more muscle than any other exercise. It stimulates muscle growth on all parts of your body, so do them.

Your diet is also important because it is what gives your body the nutrition to build muscle. If your diet is poor, than your results are poor. Start eating smaller meals more often, so you can send a continuous flow of nutrients to your muscles.

I’m going to show you my favorite muscle building tips for women. There is a lot of disadvantages women have when it comes to this type of goal. The lack of testosterone is the most apparent, but you can really have great success if you take advantage of all the little things that your body has to offer you. When I started out there wasn’t much in the way of information for women, but I learned a lot from trial and error. It’s almost been a decade since I started, but I’m a much better person at it.

Diet is Everything

Your diet is important to the success of you building muscle. If you’re not putting the proper nutrients into your body at the right times, than your muscles can’t be repaired properly. This was a hard lesson for me to learn because I just assumed that muscles were made in the gym and not the kitchen. Once I started to focus on planning out a diet and eating properly, my results started to explode. I think the best thing you can do is start eating smaller meals more often. This allows your body to get a consistent flow of nutrients to repair muscle tissue.

Compound Exercises

I used to do a lot of isolated exercises. These are the ones that just work around 1 muscle group. I’d do dumbbell curls and calf raises, but it wasn’t until I tried out compound exercises that I really stimulated a lot of muscle growth. The best exercises are squats and deadlifts. If you did these alone, you’d have great results.

I wanted to take the time to talk to you about a new intermittent fasting weight loss diet. It is a very new type of eating that can help you lose weight. It isn’t to the status of the next big thing in diets, but with the amazing study that recently came out, it should be there within the next 6 months. The study showed that people ended up eating the same amount food and actually lost weight. It also found that these people had improved health and were believed to live longer. There are a lot of skeptics when it comes to this, so I thought I’d do an investigation to learn more.

All that an intermittent fasting weight loss diet consists of is an eating pattern, rather than the food you end up eating. For a full 24hr period, you can eat anything you want, no matter how fattening, as much as you want. The next 24hr period, you’re on a fast and can only have the basics like water. This simple cycle repeats. To those that think that you’re actually starving yourself, you end up eating the same amount of calories during your 24hr period of eating, that you normally eat over a 2 day period.

When I look at safety of the body, I usually look for natural. It is natural for the human animal to eat three meals a day, everyday? Probably not. If you look at the caveman’s eating patterns, it would of consisted of something similar to intermittent fasting. A big animal is caught and there would be a feast, but other days nothing would be caught and they’d eat nothing.

Smart female bodybuilding strategies are hard to find. This is a male dominated sport, so it’s next to impossible to find anything that is remotely decent or factual for people. I’ve learned most of what I know today from trial and error. I’ll save you a lot of headaches of doing it that way and share with you the results that have helped me a lot.

Squats and Deadlifts

These two exercises are the foundation that make up bodybuilding. I’m often surprised at how these two exercises are some of the most ignored ones. I hear the same mantra excuse. “I already have big legs”, “I want to work my upper body”. It’s all just ignorant. The fact is that these two exercises have been shown to stimulate more stress in the body forcing all muscles to grow bigger, than any other ones out there. These are so important. People that do these exercises every single week, are by far bigger than all the other “wannabes” that avoid them.

Diet is Everything

Your diet is extremely important and if you’re not planning out your daily eating than you’re just playing with fire. By planning things out in advance, it’s less likely an impulse will pull you away. It’s often when we are trying to figure out what we should be eating, that we get frustrated and cheat. Planning is a mechanism for preventing cheating.
