How to build muscle?

Muscle growth (hypertrophy) happens with consistent resistance training, progressive overload, and adequate protein intake.

When we do exercises regularly while increasing their difficulty, we create minor microtears in our muscle fibers. Then our body starts the repair process by connecting these broken fibers with the help of protein, which results in muscle growth.

How to do it?

1. Consistent Resistance Training: Do multiple exercises frequently, either using external weights, resistance bands, your own bodyweight, or by combining them.

2. Progressive Overload: Increase the difficulty of the exercise over time, either by increasing weight, reps, sets, or duration, or by combining them.

3. Adequate Protein Intake: Consume various high-protein foods throughout the day.

Additional Tips

1. Prioritize Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep because that's when our body recovers the most.

2. Give Rest Days: Give rest to your muscles for atleast 48 hours between intense workouts.

3. Additional Nutrition: Don't miss out on necessary carbs, fats, vitamins, and minerals too.
