To build a muscular physique, keep stress in check. Men who are stressed may experience lower testosterone levels, and this hormone encourages muscle growth. In addition, stress increases cortisol levels, and this hormone actually inhibits muscle growth. Teach yourself some relaxation exercises and find other outlets for your stress, and you may reach your muscle-gaining goals even faster.

It is extremely important that you stand correctly when doing standing exercises, such as overhead presses and squats. These exercises call for a type of athletic stance. In order to achieve this, you should stand with your feet at about the width of your shoulders. Then, slightly point your toes outward, bend the knees, and arch your lower back. Always make sure that your eyes are looking forward.

Remember that it is never a good idea to use the scale to determine your progress when you are trying to build muscle. If you find that your scale is increasing in numbers, remember that you just might be losing fat while gaining muscle. Since muscle weighs more than fat, this is a familiar site for many who are trying to do both at the same time. Gauge your results by what you see in the mirror rather than what you see on the scale.

Practicing poses can be an effective and important part of a muscle-building routine, even if you are not bodybuilding competitively. The value of posing in front of a mirror is in the self-education it provides. Posing will increase your awareness of individual muscle groups and give you a better idea of how they work together.

Continue to challenge your body. When you start lifting weights you will reach a point when the lifting becomes easy. When this happens add more weight. By continuing to challenge your body you will help to create the level of intensity that most effectively tears down muscle, so that your body continues to have the opportunity to build it back up.

Lifting heavy weights is productive for many parts of the body, but you should avoid lifting extreme amounts of weight when you are working out by performing neck work, dips and split squats. If the exercise puts you in a joint position that is unfavorable, keep the weight limit to a reasonable level.

Working out with friends is a great way to build muscle. The motivation that comes from friends can help you push yourself harder than you would if you were working out on your own. You need to push yourself as hard as you can every time you workout if you want to see maximum results.

To really get the most out of your muscle building regiment, you have to be armed with correct information about how to get where you want to go. Apply these tips to your life, and you will realize how much they help you on the path to the kind of muscle building you want to do.
