More Muscle? More Work!

More Muscle? More Work!
If you want more muscle, plan on endless hours of dedication, commitment, and really hard training. Adding muscle to your physique requires hundreds of well thought out and consistent hours in the gym. If you are uncertain exactly how to go about this, hire someone who is successful AND educated.
But that isn't enough...

In order to achieve a muscular physique (especially naturally), you need to complement your hours of dedication in the gym with proper nutrition. Training and nutrition are two sides of the same coin, folks!

 I really can't emphasize this enough.

Getting fat is easy: anyone can do it, and most people do. Gaining muscle and staying attractively lean is the holy grail of bodybuilding. Do not just haphazardly increase your caloric intake. The goal is to increase your metabolism through both frequent, healthy feedings AND intense training. Again, if you are uncertain how to do this, hire someone who is educated AND successful at this.
