8 WEEK BODY BULKING PLAN

This 8-Week Body bulking plan is a daily


guidance and is an all-natural program. If you follow it, you will
surely get results. In this amount of time, you should be able to
gain a bit of mass. It is also possible to hit a plateau in this time, so
you need to make sure the routine gets switched up from time to
time in order to keep the muscles guessing and growing. What you
need to do is just follow the plan as guided.
This book will be your trainer and training partner for the next eight
weeks, providing all the guidance you need. Are you ready to make
this commitment? If so, let us get started!

A lot of guys have trouble adding size. The solution? Increase


volume. This, however, requires more recovery. Without it, you will
crap out before long. Resting between sets should allow you to keep
things moving along but not so fast that you burn out. Choose
weights within your means. Because you will be doing more reps and
sets per body part, you need to start with a slightly lighter load than
you might normally use. Pick at least three exercises per body part,
or more if you can handle it. 
Some tips before you start:

1. Use a full range of motion. Extend the range where possible by


stretching or bending — e.g., with upper back/ lat exercises, a
slight lean forward will allow a longer range of motion.
2. Squeeze and hold each rep at its peak contraction. You do not
need to hang out there for five seconds but give it a one-two
count before going back to the start position.

3. Experiment with different hand and foot positions, which shift


the stress on the muscles. Never get comfortable using the
same grip and force your muscles to adapt.
4. Keep the load on the muscles. Avoid swinging, bouncing, or
short-changing the length of the lift, to ensure the muscle fights
the entire battle it is up against.

5. Add drop sets. On the last set of each exercise per body part,
do 1–3 drops, decreasing weight about 20% each time and
banging out a couple of extra reps.
6. Control your reps. The reps do not have to crawl along, but they
should not be so fast that momentum takes over and helps you
complete the lift.

Day 56 Ret Day
Bulking Plan – Some more tips
1. Set realistic goals – on average without the use of hormone
enhancing aids, one should aim for 1-2lbs of lean body mass each
week.
2. Aim to eat 300-500 calories more than your body requires to maintain
your weight each day to prime your body for growth. Any more could
result in fat dependent on calorie expenditure.
3. Do not fear carbohydrates or fats just know when to utilize them.
Carbs should be consumed before, during and after weights. Fats
should be consumed at all other meals not the three mentioned
above.
4. Protein is the most essential building block for your goals. Consume
1.5 grams per KG of your body weight. 
5. Know your food groups and frequency of meals to put your body in to
growth mode.

6. As your bodyweight increases,


you will need to up your calories from week to week in order to keep
your body in a calorie surplus state for growth.
7. Anything less will just put unnecessary pressure on joints and
tendons.
8. Do not forget to warm up.
9. Know what exercises to adopt.
10.                   Big compounds move should be utilized properly
