Advertisement
There are many programs out there showing you how to build muscle. The only problem is if you don’t have the motivation to work out, you will never see any results.
In order to build muscle you must have determination to exercise. The only way an individual is ever going to see good results is to set goals for yourself. Without setting goals that person will not see much success. I want you to understand that goals don’t have to be huge at the beginning. They could be small goals that a person will set for themselves to get going.

I like to think of goals as little successes in order for that person not to procrastinate. Everyone at one time or another has procrastinated on things needed to get done. That’s why it is important to set your goals from the start of the workout routine.
How does someone go about setting goals in order to start a workout routine? I am going to outline the ways I have been able to stay focused on working out and continue to exercise and make gains in strength and muscle size. I have been able to stay focused because I love to workout and I’ve made small goals in order to stay in shape. There are three steps I like to follow in order to build muscle and stay in shape.
Step#1
Never put off something you can do right now. Easier said than done, but if you can accomplish this one thing you will see an improvement in your workouts. Do you find yourself saying I will go to the gym later on or tomorrow? I just don’t feel like working out right now. I can always exercise when I have the chance. I’m too tired to exercise.
These are just some of the excuses that people think of, and it works if you allow your mind to control the thoughts. I make up my mind that right now is the best time to workout and never let the negative thoughts enter my brain. Try this technique, I’m sure you will benefit from this mindset.
Step#2
Set some sort of goals and stop procrastinating. By doing this your muscle gains will increase as well as your strength. One of my goals is to get my workout done in the early morning. Through the years I have found that the morning is the best time for me exercise. I get up, make some coffee, watch the news, then get dressed and go downstairs to start my workout routine. This is something that works for me. You need to find your best time of the day to get to the gym or workout at home. Make that time your time to exercise.
Step#3
To build muscle you must constantly push yourself to get stronger by adding more weight or repetitions. You would be amazed how fast the body responds when you push it. Now I don’t mean hurt yourself by trying to do too much. This is what some people do. Then they get hurt and stop working out altogether. Pushing your body helps you get by plateaus in your exercise routines. This in turn helps the person get stronger and builds muscle.
I tried to help you to understand no matter what exercise program the individual is attempting. You need to find that certain motivation to help you to exercise on a regular basis.
