What is the Best Way to Build Muscle Fast?

What is the best way to build muscle fast, using free-weights or machines? If you wanted to gain weight and build muscle as fast as naturally possible, what should your workouts look like? Well, if you want to build a mass of muscle fast and effectively, free-weights are hands down MUCH more effective then machines in general.

Why? The main reason is because free-weights require complete strength and coordination of the weight, so your muscles are forced to work harder. If your muscles are working harder, then typically this results in more growth. If the motion of the exercise is supported and guided through its path, such as with machines, then your muscles have much less stress when lifting the weight.

When you workout with free-weights, your muscles are forced to balance the weight through the range of motion without any assistance. This explains why even with what you would consider light weight you may initially find a new type of exercise challenging. The more freedom of motion forces you to use all of your muscles available, whereas most machines eliminate the use of certain muscles, and this obviously will take away from your overall strength and muscle mass.

This is not to say that machines are altogether useless for gaining muscle mass. Many machines do in fact allow you to work out in different angles that free-weights cannot, so in many cases they do have their purpose. However, since you are probably more concerned with the best way to build muscle mass fast, I’m going to keep it simple like always:

STICK TO FREE-WEIGHTS!




Gaining strength in barbell and dumbbell exercises, especially compound exercises such as squats, deadlifts, bench presses, bent-over rows, shoulder presses and a few others will always build much more solid, hard, muscle mass then machines, period. A muscle mass building workout MUST contain mostly free-weights.

If you have been using mostly machines for a while and havn’t seen any results worth bragging about, then perhaps this is where the fault is. I would suggest that if you wanted to focus on strictly building muscle mass and strength as fast as possible that you stick to using free-weights exclusively.

In a nutshell, machines are good for pumping and isolation exercises, and free-weights are for gaining muscle weight fast and packing on serious pounds of muscle in record time. If you have had a lot of trouble either building muscle mass, gaining weight, or both, then it is even more important for you to focus on training only with free-weights, and to combined this with short and intense workouts, rather then long marathon type training sessions.

With these key factors in mind, you should have no trouble gaining weight and building muscle mass as as fast as naturally possible.
