Three weeks Deadlifting Cycle For Muscle Mass

                                                                  This is a simple deadlifting program for the early intermediate to intermediate lifter. It cycles through a heavy, light and moderate week and is designed to help you pack on muscle and strength. During your first cycle, base percentages off of 90% of your current one rep deadlift max. This means that if your deadlift max is 400, then starting percentages will be based off 360 pounds. Each rep you perform while using this cycle is a single. After each single you will reset. Rest as long as needed, until you feel mentally and physically recovered and ready to try the next rep. Note : I do not want you performing sloppy reps. If your form goes to heck before the time period is up, either stop deadlifting or wait a little longer until you are sure that you can perform a deadlift rep with decent form. Live to fight another day. The goal is to improve each week, not to injure yourself training like a fool. 3

3 Month Muscle Building Workout Notes
This muscle building workout is for late beginners to intermediate bodybuilders who wish to add muscle mass and also add strength, and need a new or different training approach.
When starting the program, use your best guess at how much weight will be appropriate for each set. Make adjustments as necessary. Make it a goal to try for more reps on every set of every workout. This is called progression of weight. When you can perform the top number of reps listed for an exercise set, add weight the next time you perform this exercise.
The fastest way to gain muscle and strength is by:
  1. Never waste a set. Always push yourself for more reps and more weight.
  2. Eat big! To gain muscle mass you must eat more then it takes to maintain your weight.
Failure to adhere to either of the 2 points listed above will result in a limiting of progress.

What Should You Eat After Work Out ?

                                         Post-workout nutrition has long been considered an inviolable cornerstone of muscle building. How true is that, though? Does it really matter?                            One of the first pieces of           bodybuilding advice I was given was on                           post-workout nutrition. If I didn’t eat protein and carbs immediately after training, I was told, I’d miss an opportunity to accelerate muscle growth, if not directly hinder it. And so I did, after every workout, without fail. Chances are you’ve heard the same things. Bodybuilders and gymbros alike have been singing post-workout nutrition’s praises for decades.                                         How important is it really, though?
