How To Become A Bodybuilder?

How To Become A Bodybuilder? 1. Find a good gym. You can begin getting into shape and building muscle at home, with a basic home gym set up. But it is more better to work-out at professional gym facilities. This will make things very much more possible. If you desire to be a competitive bodybuilder it is very important that you find a good gym in your local area. Where you can get trained. You can not be a bodybuilder without training. Some gyms are: Gold's Gym in Venice, Ca., Original Temple Gym in Birmingham, United Kingdom, Bev Francis's Powerhouse Gym in Syosset, NY, Metroflex in Arlington, Tx., Oxygen Gym in Kuwait. I heard of many Planet Fitness Gyms and LA Fitness Gyms throughout the Metro Atlanta area.- 2. Familiarize yourself with the important muscle groups and basic anatomy of the Human Body. Bodybuilders are part athletes and part artists. Think of your training just as if it is a work of art. Treat your training like you are a sculptor who uses clay or marble. A bodybuilder uses sweat and determination to train the muscles and sculpt the body into a particular physique(shape). Plan what you desire to achieve in bodybuilding. How you want to shape your body is a huge part of the process. Try reading these following textbooks on your research of the body. Which are Grey's Anatomy, Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bodybuilding: A Scientific Approach.- 3. Prioritize your goals. It is going to take some planning. It depends on where you are with your body. Planning and sculpting will be an ongoing process, so it is great to sit down and meet with other bodybuilders and trainers to discuss which parts of your physique that you would like to work on. Here are some muscle groups that you can work out together. The list is also as compound movements: 1. Arms, legs, and glutes. 2. Biceps, thighs and back. 3. Chest and triceps. Or 4. Chest, shoulders and arms. If you are a little overweight. Then you should begin focusing on calorie-burning exercises first to get your fat percentages down. You should do this long before you begin worrying about building your pecs into chiseled works of art. In example. First start doing cardio and circuit-training exercises to lose weight. If you already slim and lean and desire to build muscle, start developing a strength training routine, start a strengthening routine, focus on compound movements first, then work your way up to separate exercises, attacking the specific muscle groups you've identified as needing the work.- 4. Learn the proper form for each exercise. It is very important to learn how to lift properly. Try doing different exercises within your workout with an empty bar, then upgrade this to the weighted barbells to make sure you got the primary movements into your memory. Consider talking to a personal trainer for guidance. Because it is possible that you will train wrong. If you train without any guidance injury can result. And if you train without any guidance it will make your bodybuilding career a huge waste of time and effort. It also is important to go to a gym and learn from other bodybuilders as well.- 5. Consult a nutritionist. Everyone has a different metabolism and will require different supplementary nutrition for building muscle. Talk to a nutritionist or other health counselor to build a diet plan tailored to your body and what you want to do with it.- 6. The finances of bodybuilders. Bodybuilders don't make much money. The profession is much like being a professional poet or professional painter. It will take a lot of your heart and soul, make it your passion. You need to support your bodybuilding career with some other kind of work to pay the bills. Consider becoming a licensed personal trainer. This will give you much free gym time and you will get paid to talk weights and train others.- 7. Prepare for the long haul. It's very important that you know it is going to take some time. You start with deadlifts one day and wake up
