Bodybuilding Beginners: Build Your Foundation First!

By: Sean Nalewanyj

Let me ask you a quick question…

Have you packed on at least a good 15-25 pounds of lean, muscular body mass since you began your muscle building routine?

Are you moving weights on your squat, dead lift, bench press, row (and every other key complex exercise) that all feel significantly heavy for your body?

Have you added at least a couple of inches or more to all of your major muscle groups?

Are your clothes fitting drastically tighter? Are your friends and family noticing considerable changes in your body? Are you generally beginning to build a reputation as a muscular guy that people hope to look like?

If you didn’t simply answer “yes” to all of the questions I just gave you above, then distressing about the smaller details of your body is quite simply a waste of time at this point.

As a well recognized muscle building author, I collect all sorts of emails every single day from hopeful natural bodybuilders around the world. They’ll ask me questions such as…

“What can I do to build up my inner chest?”
“Which exercise is best to build up the outer head of my biceps?”
“My rear deltoids are lagging behind my front deltoids.  How do I even them out?”

If you’re still in your bodybuilding “childhood” and don’t already have a substantial amount of muscle mass to show for your hard work, I would strongly propose taking these types of questions and eliminating them from your mind until you do.

Why?

It’s because diverting your focus onto these small and unimportant issues will only serve to sidetrack you from the most important and immediate task at hand.

And what is the most significant and immediate task a hand?

It is to pack on as much raw muscle size and power onto your frame as humanly possible!

That’s right; overlook the nitty-gritty details of whether your biceps match your triceps or whether your chest is on balance with your back. These are issues that you can stress about later on, but until you’ve thickened up your whole body as a whole to a major degree, it’s simply not worth worrying about.

If you’re still a novice and have been training constantly for less than a year, then stop obsessing over the details. Instead, place all of your concentration on the most basic and clear issues at hand…

Get yourself onto a sane, rational weight training routine and stick to it religiously.

Write down every single workout that you carry out and place every ounce of energy you can gather on adding as much weight to the bar on a steady basis as you possibly can.

Grind out all of the biggest, most difficult complex exercises and explode through those discomfort zones with passion and force.

Get yourself into the kitchen and make yourself at least 5 or 6 properly balanced muscle building meals every day of the week, every week of the month and every month of the year.

Drink your water, get your sleep and take your supplements whenever needed.

In other words: PAY YOUR DUES FIRST!

If you’re in this for the long run (and you should be, as there are no quick fixes to be had here), then get yourself on to the most proficient path possible. And the most proficient path possible is the one that focuses on the basics first and the details later.

This is the state of mind you need to bring to your bodybuilding program. Just as you wouldn’t attempt a compound guitar solo without learning basic chord shapes first, you also should not try to fine-tune and balance out your physique until you have a considerable amount of initial muscle to work with first.

Building muscle is not rocket-science, but it is a job that requires steady willpower and determination. And until you’ve been “in the trenches” and have earned yourself an inspiring and muscular body...

Stop over-analyzing... Stop obsessing... Stop spreading out your focus onto every single minute issue that pops up…
