Have you ever met someone who put your obese physique to shame? Do you feel like less of a man when someone twice your age crushes you at a sport you used to dominate? If so, you owe it to yourself to read on. Every men has at one point decided that they want to have very little fat and a lot of muscle. The problem is that these goals are rarely reached and instead they have a lot of fat and no muscle. Read these five tips to ensure this doesn't happen to you. 1. Building muscle and losing weight are like oil and water, they just don't go together. So you shouldn't try to force them to. When building muscle you must eat MORE than you would normally and when you lose weight you have to eat LESS. This poses a problem and the only solution is to focus on one then the other. 2. You won't lose (much) weight from resistance training and you won't gain muscle from cardio. It is vital that you keep this in mind when working out. 3. Always use proper form. While it sounds great that you can do 25 more pounds on the bench when using incorrect form, lets see how much you can do with an injured back. Seriously guys just use proper form, if you don't you will eventually regret it. Also, don't try to fool yourself into thinking that you're getting stronger with bad form, those gains you get are artificial only good form will get you stronger. 4. Don't become a fitness know-it-all. Learn what is proven by science and accepted as fact and don't worry about anything else. Arguments about stuff like free weights vs. machines are ridiculous and don't get you any stronger. Whether you do three sets of five or four sets of eight you'll still be getting stronger than if you didn't get off the couch. 5. Avoid getting "exercise ADD". Every single time I go to the gym I see someone bouncing around from machine to machine without any idea how to use them. Do not let this person be you! Find a workout program that was designed by a pro and stick to it. Don't add in that cool calf machine if your workout doesn't tell you to, if using that calf machine would help you, the person who made the program would have added it! Author: Michael C.
