What's the fastest way to gain muscle? There is a ton of info online about how to get ripped in 30 days or less--that's the good news.

What's the bad news?

Most of it doesn't work. There are 3 myths floating around today about how to bulk up quick that need to be dispelled now.

MYTH #1) More time at the gym is better

You DO NOT need to spend hours and hours at the gym to get results. In fact this is actually hurting your progress... because less time at the gym is much more effective.

Why is this?

Because super vigorous workouts are much more effective. The longer you spend at the gym the less intense your workout will be.

So how long should I spend at the gym?

A good rule of thumb is to leave when you feel your performance start to decline... and even sooner.
What's the best workout routine to build muscle? One sequence that is very effective is to do just 1 exercise per day... and do 5 sets of 5 reps for that one. This is how to get ripped in 30 days.

MYTH #2) More repetitions is better

Most people perform 8-12 repetitions and more... but this is too many.

How many repetitions should I do?

5-8 is the fastest way to gain muscle mass. This will allow you to go all out for each rep and therefore get better results.

MYTH #3) Do as many different exercises as possible

Wrong again. When you do compounding exercises (ones that target many muscles) you only need 3-5 total exercises to get a total body workout. What are examples of "compounding exercises"? The overhead press... squat... deadlift... bent rows, etc. All these give you the best results for the least amount of effort.

MYTH #4) Eating habits don't matter

On the contrary-having the right diet for strength training is critical. There is perhaps more misinformation on this topic than anything else pertaining to bodybuilding.

Eat CONSISTENTLY throughout the day. Eating just 3 meals a day slows your metabolism... very bad for fat loss.

MYTH #5) You NEED supplements

This is complete bogus. When you consume healthy foods you get all the nutrients you need... bar none.

Eating natural foods... along with proper workout habits... is the fastest way to gain muscle mass. This is how to get ripped in 30 days or less.
