How To Build Muscle: Complete Guide To Build Strong Muscle

In this article you are going to learn how to build muscle and get stronger naturally and lose fat at the same time, without using steroids or any drugs training only three times a week.

The muscle building technique that i am going to share with you has been used by some of the best build guys that ever existed.

The best part is, that everyone can use this technique, no meeter if you are a newbie or advanced. Everyone can build more muscle by following this technique.

So if you struggle to build more muscle, and lose that belly fat at the same time, than you are on the right place !

This routine was used by one of the best bodybuilders ever, Arnold Schwarzenegger, during his power-lifting and weight lifting career before he became a bodybuilder. Originally it was created by his mentor legendary Reg Park.

So what is the secret to build more muscle ? There is no secret !

  You need to get stronger to build more muscle ! 

 The more weight you can lift in the gym the more muscular you will be. This is especially true if you are natural bodybuilder with average genetics like many people.

Now stop for a moment, and think about what i said before. To get more muscle, you need to get stronger !

  Is it coincidence that the best build bodybuilders and athletes in the world are strong as hell ?! 

The best example would be 7 times Mr. Olympia and one of the best if not the best bodybuilder ever, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

As you can see on the picture Arnold was lifting some heavy ass weights. Not many people know that before his bodybuilding carer Arnold was a power-lifter and actually won many of power-lifting competitions.

In his latest's autobiography Total Recall Arnold explained:

"The truth is that not all bodybuilders are strong, especially those who have done most of the training with the machines.


But years of power-lifting and working with free weights had given me massive biceps and shoulders and back muscles and thighs. I simply looked bigger and stronger than the rest."

-Arnold Schwarzenegger, Total Recall.

In the picture above you can see Arnold Deadlifting 710 lbs (322 kilograms) several years before he won his first Mr. Olympia. But he is not the only one who knew that more strength is more muscle.

Just think about Ronnie Coleman and what he always screams when lifting tones of weights:

  "Everybody whats to be a bodybuilder, but nobody wants to lift  heavy ass weight". 
 - Ronnie Coleman

And the list goes on. There many more bodybuilders that are strong as hell:

Franco Columbo was a training partner from Arnold, and even stronger than him. He was a power lifter from Italy and Mr. Olympia twice.

He could Deadlift 770 lb (342 kilograms), Bench Press 525 lb (238 kilograms) and Squat 655 lb (297 kilograms).

Reg Park was a mentor of Arnold. Arnold learned from him a simple technique called 5x5 which allowed him to get stronger and build more muscle mass.

The 5x5 technique is actually a workout method that you are going to learn here to get stronger and build more muscle mass.

Reg Park himself was also a strong muscular guy, almost strong as Arnold. Park won Mr. Universe three times and unlike Arnold he did that before steroids even existed. This profs that building muscle by getting stronger works for natural lifters !

And many, many more...including Jay Cutler, Ronnie Coleman, Sergio Oliva the Olympic lifter who could lift 300 lb (136 kilograms) overhead and won Mr. Olympia three times.

Or Stan Efferding, the strongest pro bodybuilder, owner of the world record in the Squat 854 lb (383 kilograms).


Here is what all this means: If you are drug free lifter with average or lousy genetics, then building muscle boils down to this:

  If you are not lifting more weight today than you did one year, or one month ago...You are not building  muscle.
