What is Bodybuilding?


Whenever you hear the word bodybuilding, an image of a man having huge muscles covered in oil or sweat and wearing only tiny bikini briefs comes to your mind, but that only a few of us achives,who commit to the dedication and determination it takes to get bodies into that huge state.

But the fact is, anyone can be benefitted from the principles of bodybuilding both from the aspect of how you look as well as your overall health.

Bodybuilding is simply the process of building muscles and losing fat to accentuate the overall musculature of your body.

Not everybody of us can build a huge and bulky hulking body by just lifting a few weights for a few months.It takes years of intense dedication hard work and hours of grueling workouts per day to achieve the physiques of those you see standing on stages, not to mention the occasional illegal chemical helper as well.

But just going to your local gym and deciding to build your body doesnt actually means that you need to achieve that bulky huge shape and sized body,its a great idea to get a good physique,and it will lead you to an increased sense of satisfaction and a healthier longer life as well.

Bodybuilding exercises are simply any exercise at all that will allow you to build muscles or to increase your strength of a part of body or to improve your weaker parts.

These can be performed by any human,but it depends on several factors like age,and gender etc.Some excercises are meant for some specific people,if you want to do them,you need to first develop your body to be able to tolerate the pressure that body goes through them and this means that anyone can do any excercise !

Push-ups, for instance, are an incredible bodybuilding exercise that will allow you to build the muscles of your chest, triceps, and shoulders.

Of all the bodybuilding exercises in existence, squat is known to be the king of the excercises. Performed by lifting a barbell on your shoulders and squatting down until your thighs are parallel with the ground and then rising back up, the squat is known as a compound movement.

The entire body mucles can be build through it,it helps build muscles of lower and upper body as well.

It takes extreme physical determination to squat with heavy weights but the payoff can be huge.

Squats are also a great way of burning the fat. Combining squats with push-ups and perhaps even pull-ups can provide you all the bodybuilding results you need to get into incredible shape and totally transform the look of your entire body.

Now if you are strating to build a bodybuilding routine you should pay attention to your diet as well.Diet plays an equally important role in building your body. It almost seems senseless to work hard to build big muscles, and then cover them up with thick layers of fat. You want to eat a diet that contains plenty of lean protein and is lower in fat and carbohydrates. These last two nutrients are important for energy, but you want to limit them to avoid excess fat gain.

Now what are you waiting for if you havent started or excercise regularly,plan a schedule for yourself,include excercise in your daily routine,anyone can build and get in shape,its not that doing excercise is tough,its that doing it consistently is tough.

So plan it nicely before you start and get involved in it with sincere dedication and commitment.
