    In this video, I’m going to tell you how to build more muscle with four easy tips! The purpose of skeletal muscle is to create movement and healthy posture. Muscle is also very important for your metabolism.
    High-intensity exercise and protein consumption build muscle. Aim to consume .8 to 1.5 grams of high-quality protein per kilogram of lean body mass. Athletes may need to consume up to 2 grams of protein per kilogram.
    1. Creatine
    Creatine is found in foods, but if you want to grow your muscles quickly, take creatine as a supplement. Creatine acts as a substitute for energy, especially for short-duration high-intensity exercise. Try taking 20 grams of creatine for five days, then a maintenance dosage of 3 grams daily for the rest of the month, and then continue this cycle between the large and small amounts.
    2. Cold therapy
    Cold showers, cold immersion, and cryotherapy require your body to generate a tremendous amount of energy to maintain its core temperature. To do this, your body generates a type of fat known as brown fat, which stimulates white fat. This burns a lot of calories!
    Cold therapy increases the expression of muscle genes in both rats and humans. It increases RNA, which makes the proteins you need to build muscle. Cold therapy also decreases inflammation.
    3. Intermittent fasting
    Intermittent fasting stimulates growth hormone, which increases muscle growth. Aim for two meals daily without decreasing your caloric intake-and cut the snacks! Intermittent fasting helps improve insulin resistance, which gets more insulin to the muscle.
    4. Arginine
    Arginine also increases growth hormone by inhibiting a hormone called somatostatin. Arginine has even been used to increase growth in children. Try taking 3 to 6 grams daily on an empty stomach 30 minutes before you work out.

All natural keto diet, minimal snacking on seeds, kraut, and boiled eggs, steak for dinner. Sleeping deeply, and pain threshold is way up. I'm 45 and looking like Tyler Durden, and work 9 hour days with solid focus and energy, and able to push an intense workout in the evening. It's worth it.

Finish off with a cold shower every day. I look at other guys my age who look at least 10 yrs older with a beer belly. One mistake I was doing at the gym is sticking to the similar weights week after week at 12 reps. Now started to increase weights considerably and doing 6-8 reps and starting to see big muscle gains.

    I'm 67 yrs old. Two years ago, after 15 years of sedentary lifestyle, I began working out while also doing intermittent fasting (16/8). I was over 40% bodyfat (most of it in visceral fat-in my belly). Fast forward to today, I'm 25 lbs lighter, my chest is 3" larger, my waist is 3" smaller, and I'm at 17% bodyfat (I'm now 6'1" and 195lbs). I can keep up with most all men less than half my age. I do not adhere to any particular diet; instead, I eat what I desire, but I simply count calories to keep within my BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate). I cannot express how much better I feel. Friends and family that haven't seen me for a while are amazed at the transformation. The other day, the two young women working the front desk of my gym stopped me, complimented me on my physique and asked my age. Their mouths were both agape when I told them. Great things happen when action is taken.

    My personal experience with prolonged fasting is that it DOES build muscle. Not the fast itself, but the refeeding/growing phase AFTER the fast. Prolonged fasting boosts HGH to the MAX along with STEM CELLS that build whatever is needed. I'm 52, female, and have as much muscle as I did when I was in my 30s and lifting weights at the gym. I live an active life, but I don't "lift weights."

    • @rotcaka
      @rotcaka 25 дней назад +1

      I think the issue for most would be that if you're talking about like a 1-2 day fast or longer ... Someone like myself who is active would be catabolizing muscle during all the walking my dog in doing and other labor intensive activities. Then, sure I would have a boost once I got back into the eating, and lifting, but it would be spinning my wheels.
      Yes, if you have slower metabolism or are carrying extra weight, then longer fasts probably work great. But would not recommend for younger, fitter, people/ hard gainers this would be problematic. IMO and experience

    00:42 🥩 High-intensity exercise and adequate protein consumption, preferably from animal sources, are well-known methods to increase muscle growth.
    02:42 💊 Creatine supplementation indirectly supports muscle growth by providing energy for high-intensity exercises, aiding in ATP recycling and recovery.
    04:18 ❄ Cold therapy, such as cold showers or cryotherapy, can increase calorie burn, stimulate brown fat production, and enhance muscle gene expression.
    05:56 🕰 Intermittent fasting, when done correctly, can stimulate growth hormone secretion and improve insulin sensitivity, potentially aiding in muscle growth.

    Put Spinach in your post workout protein shakes, it lengthens the time your body absorbs the proteins your body is absorbing post workout, People always say "make sure to take your protein shake within a hour of yoir workout" this lets your take in that and eat your 1st protein heavy meal within a 3 hour window of workout and it will change the game for you.

      Creatine upsets your stomach and won't absorb into your blood stream if it's not 100% dissolved in the water before you take it, and it's stubborn about dissolving. My stomach problems disappeared when I switched to creatine HCL because the scoops are smaller and it's more water soluble, plus I stir it into warm water so it dissolves more easily.

      Longevity? God revealed everything about this, and about how to live healthy today. You can know it from the pen of Ellen G. White, God's last day prophet. No wonder the Seventh-day Adventists live 10 to 11 years longer than non-Seventh-day Adventists. That's due to their superior health habits. They were informed far in advance about healthy living years before these stuff like fasting, exercise, two meals only, non-smoking, no-caffeine came up only recently. They already know it. That's in their health books way back 1863. The Seventh-day Adventists are more than 150 years advanced when it comes to health, because God revealed many things to Ellen G. White. Read her. Her books are public and there's free online downloadable apps of all her writings.

    I’m a person that is kind of “sickly” because I have Young Onset Parkinson’s however I use both intermittent fasting and prolonged fasting with Clean Keto and it makes me feel so much better than eating all the time like a normal person. Definitely need to know what you’re doing when you have a disease or consult with someone who does know and have the skills to keep you on track so fasting can help. The Autophagy I get from it is unreal and staying in Ketosis keeps my central nervous system as calm as ever!

    45 years old, about 60 lbs. overweight with a natural weight of 140 lbs. I consume around 100-160 gr. of protein on my gym days with around 70-100 gr. on off days. My creatine use is around 5-7 gr. per day. I can see a substantial difference in just 2-1/2 months of regular exercise. I was 150 lbs with under 20% body fat before a back injury in 2017. Desperately trying to get my body back before it's too late.

    Be careful with creatine. I was only taking a half serving (I have a low body weight), and I got horrible cramping, first in my lower legs and then in all my extremities. You need to drink a ton on water to a avoid this as it pulls the water out of the extra-cellular tissue and into the muscles. It also builds up in your system and takes up to six weeks to leave the body.

      Creatin, along side restoring your atp energy, sends water in your muscle. If you aren't drinking enough water you will of course have cramps. 3L of water should be enough if you are low body weight. Also don't listen to what this guy is saying. It isn't proven to cycle it and you should aim for 0,15g for kg.

      100% agreed. And i would say that a lot of times people can master the eating and resting aspect but they might not have the fundamental knowledge of just how hard and how much to train in the gym to produce muscle at its best potential. Reducing junk volume but pushing hard in your sets. Not overdoing it with drop sets or beyond failure reps and so on I'd say that these things build up a lot of fatigue for little to no extra gain and that's really what a lot of people miss the point about. A lot of people mistakenly think that going to the gym all days a week will get them muscles but that's simply not true since the body needs rest and high intensity training in appropriate doses

    Low reps. 5-7 reps to isometric or negative failure. Don’t just hit positive failure which isn’t enough. (Forced negative or loaded weight negatives are best.) High protein high good fats. Rest. Each body party once per week. Most people do light weights and try to hit each body part multiple times a week. (Growth is slow and gains stop after about 8 months to a year.)
    LOW REPS- lots of rest between sets.
    Lots of recovery between each body part trained.
    This advice is the opposite of what people want to hear.
    After 26 years personal training and writing a book on the topic of negative reps - the tips I listed will ensure continued muscle growth beyond what you’ll ever thought possible.

      The 20grams he recommends seems excessive. Did he mean 20 g over 5 days = 5g/ day? I rarely ever take more than like 2-3 g/ day and usually just cycle on and off constantly. Sometimes 1 g, sometimes 3g ... Sometimes trace amounts. I've always supplemented in this way with multivitamins,etc. I feel it's more natural. The body would get random amounts of nutrients depending on the food source and time of year and what's available ...

    Wrong information about you "need" animal protein. That's straight up wrong. Proteins are made of amino acids which are different bricks to build a full rounded protein if all are put together. The reason why people say you "need" animal protein is because animal protein has great amino acid profiles which then we can see as a well rounded protein source. Since different plants have different amino acid profiles the logic conclusion is to put different proteinsources into one meal so you can balance out each plants amino acid deficits. For example lentils with sunflower seeds or beans with tofu. If you do this right there is no "low quality" protein source in plant based diets.

  • @RobbyFindlay-uq2dy
    @RobbyFindlay-uq2dy 19 дней назад

    L-Arginine does work. In the nineties I would take L-Arginine and L-Ornithine at a ratio of 2 to 1, because, I think it was the Ornithine converts to Arginine, and so at that ratio of 2 to 1 it balances out. It could be the other way around. It was a long time ago, but that is how it works or so I was told at the time. Also, nicotinic acid(niacin) B3 enlarges the blood vessels to carry more oxygen around the body when training. This will give a fuller and harder look to the muscles. This worked amazingly for me as a young man and still does today even though I took a long break from training.

      Huberman Labs with Dr Andy Galpin, it's 6 long episodes, worth taking a lot of notes and lots of good info, you can find them on YT or Spotify.
