Body building is not just sports, it is a branch of science which explores and pushes the human body to the max.
If you are very serious about body building then you need to approach it in a whole new way.
21st centaury scientist have provided a clear insight on how to efficiently build muscle with minimal effort.
In this article I would like to discuss modern views of building muscle.
Now, body building itself is not a new concept.
We do know who made it an international sport, but we are not very clear on who was the first to come up with the idea of working out in order to shape up the body.
However, the art of body building has continuously evolved into what you see today.
Building body consists of two different concepts.
The first part being building muscle and the second part shaping the muscle mass into a well sculpted body.
Both these concepts are interlinked and overlapped but if you want to get better result you need to understand both these concept.
The first part of building muscle mass mainly deals with the nutrition and parts of human physiology.
You need to know in order to put on extra muscles on your body your existing muscle fibers need to divide.
This process is known as hypertrophy of the muscle.
Hypertrophy of the muscle takes places only when there is good source of energy otherwise it leads the exact opposite atrophy of the muscle where the muscle mass is lost.
What consists of proper source of energy for your muscle mass?? We all know protein is the essential building block for muscles, however only by consuming protein one cannot achieve muscle mass.
In order to achieve extra muscle mass one need to consume what is called a balanced diet, in which the proportion of carbohydrate, lipids and proteins are well balanced in order to meet all the demands of the body.
Any impairment in one of the component will lead to another effect rather than the desired results.
So it is essential that a great deal emphasis is paid when it comes to following diet when you are building body.
