HOW TO BUILD
MUSCULAR
STRENGTH
 01 WORKOUT
If you want to strengthen a particular
muscle, you must train it using some
form of resistance. Full body strength
can improve with a specialist
programme designed to focus on all
muscle groups. Whilst traditionally 1-4
repetitions are used to train for
strength, any progressive resistance
programme will lead to strength gains.
 02 EAT
To build muscle we must fuel them.
Ensure you eat a healthy diet and
cut out unnecessary fats. Protein is
key. Ensure you eat at least 1g of
protein per kg of bodyweight each
day. A good mix of fruit and
vegetables helps to support a
healthy diet.
 03 REST
it is vital to take time out to allow
the body to heal and grow. Avoid
training the same muscles on
consecutive days. To prevent
overtraining, allow one day off a
week.
Muscular Strength is important
it improves our mental and
physical well-being, it reduces
the risk of disease, it strengthen
bones and muscle and lasty it
improves our daily activities.
