Athletic muscle

Know your genetics

Knowing the genetic make-up of your body type is important because it will impact your intentions.

Bone length factors-torso, lower leg, upper leg and arms

Width/girth factors-the width of your hips and shoulder girdle, rib cage protrusion, girth of your hips, lower torso or abdominals and upper torso or chest in combination to your existing muscle mass.

Muscle size, origin and insertion factors-long or short muscle bellies, and the point where they attach to your skeleton.

Whether you are tall and skinny, wide at the lower torso and narrow at the shoulders, long femur or short torso will decide whether you will be able to achieve some of the specific goals about your physique. You will need to adjust your goals according to your body type. It is possible to alter your body composition or muscle to fat ratio, but that can be done within the limits of genetical factors.

Focus on the nutrition

Nutrition is very important in achieving your goal physique. You need to ensure a good balance of the macronutrients, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats consumption. Whey or casein protein, high glycemic or low glycemic carbs, saturated or polyunsaturated or unsaturated fat; all these can impact your training goals.

You need to watch out what you eat because today there are products available which are tasty and addictive but have questionable nutritional facts. You need to focus on foods which will help you to build muscle and not fat. If you are lifting hard, then you don’t need a calorie deficit. You need lots of calories which will fuel your workout and help you build muscles and strength.

Work hard

Plan for your goal
