So, you’ve been working out your tail off for the past months trying to pack on as much muscle size as you possibly can. And, actually, it worked, but maybe not in the way you’ll prefer. Now, you are huge, that’s a fact, but you are not the big mass of muscle you wanted to be. Along with all of that solid, lean muscle you’ve gained, you notice that you’ve also packed on some excess body fat in the process.
Let’s face it, no matter how “huge” you might be, no one wants to be walking around with a soft, smooth and flabby body. There are a lot of myths floating around about what it really takes to get defined muscles. After most trainees have finished their “bulking” phase, they decide that it’s time to “cut down” the excess body fat that they gained due to their high calorie, muscle-building diet. How do they usually do this? They lighten up the weights and perform higher reps.
This has always been a widely accepted method of “cutting down” and if you ask most trainers in the gym they’ll tell you that “heavy weights bulk up the muscle and lighter weights define the muscle”. Do you want to know the reality behind the “light weight and high reps” method of obtaining a ripped and defined physique? It is completely, totally and utterly dead wrong.
It couldn’t be farther from the truth. In fact, there is no logical basis for this way of training. No exercise will give you more definition than another. It is physically impossible to target fat loss from a specific area on your body. In other words, no excersice will magically burn fat off of your chest or cause it to appear more defined.
You can use the bench press, squat, standing curl, pull-up, military press, and deadlift to stimulate the most muscle growth. If you train with weights you will build muscle mass, it’s really quite simple. Do you want to get ripped? Well, that’s another story.
So how exactly do you “define” a muscle? The only way to “define” a muscle is by lowering your body fat percentage in order to make your muscles more visible. Body fat reduction can be achieved in two ways:
1) Modify your diet. Try eating smaller meals more frequently throughout the day. In this way you will keep you body in a constant fat burning state because your metabolism will be raised, in a natural way.
2) Perform proper cardio workouts. Let go of the traditional method of moderate intensity cardio in 30-45 minute durations. If you want to maximize your body’s fat burning capacity and also minimize the muscle loss that inevitably accompanies a fat burning cycle, focus on shorter, 15-minute cardio workouts performed 3-5 times per week at a high level of intensity.
So, that’s all you have to do. “Light weight and higher reps”, leave that in the past, follow these simple steps and i guarantee that you’ll see the definition that you are looking for.
