Mens Muscle Building




Nitro Muscle Mass contains a superior L-Arginine blend of amino acids and herbal supplements that cause an increase in the levels of nitric oxide (NO2) in the blood stream. This moves oxygen into your muscles, dilating your vascular system giving you strength gains and an incredibly ripped abdomen.

Arginine is a precursor for nitric oxide (no2) which is responsible for vasodilatation and is often used for supporting healthy sexual function.

Recent studies have shown that arginine is necessary for the execution of many physiological processes such as hormone secretion, increase in growth hormone output, and removal of toxic waste from the body.

Arginine is considered one of the most crucial supplements on the market for muscle growth due to its vasodilating abilities and its increase of protein synthesis.

How To Get Muscular Forearms

When it comes to building muscle, forearms are the most neglected body part because most fail to realize that they need to work them as a separate muscle group. Not only do great forearms prove to be aesthetically pleasing, but exercising this muscle group reduces the likelihood of carpel tunnel and improves your overall grip.

There are three main muscles that make up your forearms; Pronator Teres, Brachialis, and Brachioradialis. Although there are many more muscles in your forearms, these are the three largest and most worked muscles. There are also numerous workouts one can do to improve their forearms, and they can be separated into top and bottom lifts. Forearm muscles are a strength and endurance muscle, so it is important to do both moderate heavy sets of 8-10 repetitions and light sets of 15-20 repetitions.

Top lifts are not as popular or well known as bottom lifts, but are a necessity in developing your forearms. I suggest that you incorporate three top lifts into your routine, as well as three bottom lifts. The top lifts focus on your Brachialis, and Brachioradialis. I recommend palms down dumbbell wrist curls over a bench, palms down wrist curls over a bench(with a straight bar), and hammer curls. For bottom lifts I recommend palms up wrist curls over a bench(dumbbells or bar), behind the back wrist curls, and dumbbell twists.

Top Forearm Lifts

Lifts Sets Reps Rest
Palms down dumbbell wrist curls
(over a bench)		 3 8-10 60 Seconds
Palms down bar wrist curls
(over a bench)		 3 8-10 60 Seconds
Hammer Curls 3 15-20 60 Seconds

To do palms down wrist curls over a bench, you simply kneel next to a bench, hold the dumbbells/bar with your palms facing down, and your forearms flat on the bench with the back of your wrists on the edge of the bench. Lower the weight as far down as possible while maintaining your tight grip, and then slowly curl the weight as high as possible. It is very important that you do not allow your forearms to move while doing these exercises.

Lifts Sets Reps Rest
Palms up wrist curls
(over a bench)		 3 8-10 60 Seconds
Behind the back wrist curls 3 8-10 60 Seconds
Dumbell Twists 3 15-20 60 Seconds

Palms up wrist curls over a bench are exactly the same as palms down, but reversed. Lower the weight as far down as possible while maintaining your tight grip, and then slowly curl the weight as high as possible. To do behind the back wrist curls you simply grip a bar behind your back(with desired weight) and while letting your arms hang you slowly curl your wrists has high as you can. Dumbbell twists are done by seating yourself on a bench, grab a moderately heavy dumbbell and let it hang between your legs, and then begin to twist it back and forth. You must keep the dumbbell stable and not allow it to swing, if you do not it may cause injury.

There are a few things to remember while working your forearms. If at any time you feel pain in your wrists, stop immediately. Make sure you never use upper body momentum to assist you in your lift, this will defeat the purpose. Lastly I recommend you work your forearms the same days you work your biceps. This will increase the workout in your forearms while concentrating on your biceps.

Recovery & Growth: How To Get The Most Out Of Your Workout

Recovery and Growth

Dedicated athletes feel that if they aren’t in the gym working, they’re not meeting their full potential. The truth is that the work may be done in the gym, but the results are determined by what you do outside of the gym. Recovery time is an essential part of muscle function and growth. Fitting recovery time into your schedule allows your body to adapt to the rigors of an extensive workout regimen. There are three important aspects of recovery that you must adhere to if you don’t want you’re hard work in the gym to be detrimental to your body, your growth, and your performance. You must have adequate amounts of sleep, protein intake, and time off.

The most important part of recovery is sleep. During sleep your growth hormone levels peak, and protein synthesis occurs to help rebuild your muscle tissue. During deep sleep your body enters a paralytic state that allows for optimum muscle growth and recovery, and without it all your hard work would be a waste. It isn’t a guarantee that we will all reach the deep stages of sleep, so to assist your body in reaching those stages you should let yourself relax thirty minutes before you head for the bed. This can be done by doing breathing exercises, meditation, a warm bath/shower, or many other techniques. Some people believe they don’t need as much sleep as others, but if you’re looking to gain muscle mass you NEED eight hours of sleep a night. When I say eight hours a night, I don’t mean five one night and eleven the next, I mean eight hours every single night. You also need to have a set schedule for when you sleep. I recommend that you go to bed and wake at the same times each day. This will allow your body to get into a rhythm of recovery, and you allow for the best results.

Your nutrition is the next step to your recovery. Protein intake is the most vital part of your diet, and is the most vital nutrient for muscle tissue repair and building. You need to keep your body in an anabolic state(state in which your body has enough fuel to build the complex molecules needed for the growth and repair of your muscular system). To maintain an anabolic state you need a positive nitrogen balance. To do this you must consume at least one gram of protein for every pound of body weight you have a day. Your caloric intake levels must be higher than your output levels as well. Try to consume anywhere between 300-700 more calories than you burn off every day.

The time you spend in the gym is very demanding, and if you’re serious about building mass then it’s important that you don’t skip out on a workout. On the other hand you have to give yourself a break once in a while. Every couple months you need to take a week off and stay away from the gym completely. Although your body makes huge strides towards recovery between workouts and while sleeping, the most significant recovery occurs when you take a break from everything. Intense weight training places an abundant amount of stress on our bodies, and it’s essential that you allow your body to relax. The body needs down time every 8-10 weeks, so give it what it needs. The time off will help to fill your tanks, motivate you, and give you the mentality to head back into the gym with a strong work ethic.
