Mass Building Workouts


For mass building workouts, focus on free weight exercises (barbells and dumbbells) that target your largest muscle groups. Free weights put the most stress on muscles and stimulate the maximum number of muscle fibers and require you to use stabilizing muscles as well as the target muscle. Machines stabilize the load for you.

The best weight training exercises for mass building workouts are exercises like squats, dead lifts, bench presses, barbell rows, pull ups and dips.

Keep your mass building workouts under one hour. Short and intense!

Warm up well then use heavy weights and low reps, rest 3 minutes between each set.

Do only 2-3 exercises per body part.

Split up your workout:
Day 1: Chest, shoulders and triceps
Day 2: Rest
Day 3: Back, and Bicep
Day 4: Rest
Day 5: Legs and abs
Day 6: Rest
Day 7: Rest

Cardio will NOT “strip” off your muscle! You need to keep your heart and lungs in shape too. A good set of lungs are needed to get through a long set of squats and intense mass building workouts.

You should ALWAYS do at least three cardio sessions a week for at least 30-35 minutes ALL year long. What intensity? As long as you’re sweating and your heart is pumping 130-150 beats per minutes, you’re good.

Mass building workouts can be fun and challenging. Always try to improve every workout either by lifting more weight, lifting the same weight for more reps, or decreasing your resting times between sets. But to add mass, consistently adding more weight to the bar will get results faster.
