Build Upper Body Muscle FAST - A "Skinny Guy's" Guide to Building Upper Body Muscle and Strength

Before getting into specific muscle building topics, there are three fundamental ingredients in achieving the results you want when you build upper body muscle. And these ingredients are critical to achieving muscle building results...skip one of these ingredients and you will never get out of the starting blocks to build any muscle.

The 3 keys to your success are:

Mental attitude-keep in mind your goal in order to help you stay focused, committed, diligent, and persistent. Work hard...work smart...and never give up! This same mindset applies when you're working in the gym. Guys, it's not social hour...at least not if you're trying to build muscle.

When you're in the gym you need to keep your mind on your workout, follow the rules to exercising when it comes to rest periods between sets, smart lifting, and be consistent with it.

Eating right-your nutrition is the second biggest piece of the puzzle. Cut down of high fat foods, don't overdo the protein, (yes you can consume too much protein), and add extra calories in the form of complex carbs to your daily diet.

Men, protein doesn't build muscle...post-workout yes, it helps to refuel and restore muscle fiber. But when it comes to the energy you need to do the weight work in the gym, that my friend is coming from your complex carbs.

Exercising CORRECTLY-If you want real success from your effort to build upper body muscle fast you have to consistently perform the right exercises at the right intensity always keeping in mind proper form. And despite what you may have heard, that even includes cardio.

Look guys, I've have seen it time and time again. You go in the gym sloppily pushing up the weight and throwing it down. Your muscles aren't getting any work that way. In fact, they are just laying back and playing it cool because they know, heck momentum is doing the job so they don't have to. You're cheating yourself out of results that way!

But hey, it's up to you. If you want to spend your time in the gym and not get any results, or get little results in the longest time frame possible...then go for it because that's up to you.

But, if you do want real results, follow these 3 steps to make sure you go from a gym zero, to a gym hero and get the other gym rats' attention.

It's not just the diet and type of workout that makes a difference in your ability to build muscle. How you work out is critical too. When I go to workout, I have to admit that I see a lot of guys screwing up in the gym. They are trying to build muscle and yet they're doing everything wrong in their exercises. And what they're doing wrong is exactly what's keeping them from getting the size they want.

Need an example???

How about working out for 2 hours straight without refueling the system at anytime during the workout. Did you know that lifting heavy for more than an hour burns up on the glycogen available in your body and protein will become the next energy source used if it's not replenished? Guess where that protein is coming from...you're muscles. Your body practices cannibalism on breaking down muscle to provide fuel to allow you the energy you need to build muscle.

Here is another one...

How much weight and how many reps are you doing? Did you know that muscles grow when in a state of hypertrophy. That happens when there is tension put on the muscle over the course of 40 seconds or more which means, throwing up lights weights for a quick 12-15 reps will get the blood flowing sure. But you won't see any new muscle from that work you're putting in.

Are you getting some ah-ha moments guys?

Well, I've got some good news. Here is a report that will help you identify the things you're doing wrong when it comes to working out. And most likely it's these screw-ups that's keeping you from gaining muscle and getting results.

Hey man, you're putting in the work...why not get the muscle? Start getting some real results you can see when you stop doing what's wrong and start working out, training, and eating the right way. Shoot me an e-mail and I'll get you the report.

One of the great things about polls is that they provide a lot of valuable information. Take for example the poll asking about the biggest challenge you face when it comes to trying to build upper body muscle, Build Upper Body Muscle Poll

In case you haven't seen the results, did you know that over 40% of you said that your problem with building upper body muscle was because you have "skinny man" genes?

Is that surprising to you? It isn't to me, and here's why...

Most guys with "builds" that place themselves in what is commonly referred to as the "skinny man genes" category haven't achieved results because they aren't following the right steps to gaining big upper body muscle.

Is this you??? Do you even know how you need to build muscle as a skinny guy???

Look, here's the deal. Building muscle REGARDLESS OF YOUR GENES requires certain things. It requires:

That you are taking in all of the calories you need - not just amounts but type and the timing of your intake as well.
That you are working out in the right manner - this includes not only performing the right exercises, but using the proper techniques, pushing to the proper intensity, consistent training, lifting to build muscle...not destroy it, and more...
That you are getting enough sleep - did you know the amount you sleep affects the natural production of growth hormones that help build muscle?
That you are resting your body - Are you one of those guys that push your muscles everyday never giving the muscles a chance to repair themselves?
Etc. - and everything else in between. Think of cardio work, supplementation, routines...and that's not even everything.

Now granted, for guys who aren't considered to have the skinny-man syndrome, they don't have to work as hard or pay as close attention to all of these things. But you, skinny man...YOU DO! If you really want to build your upper body you do.

And don't go and think you're going to get all of this information out of a magazine either. I know...you've tried all those routines, huh?

How'd they work out for you? If you're reading this...I'm guessing pretty unsuccessful, huh?

That's because the guys doing those routines aren't built like you. They don't have hard gainer genes. I can assure you that muscle comes to them a hell of a lot easier than it's coming to you. SO WHY WOULD YOU EXPECT THEIR ROUTINES TO WORK YOU?

Still, having learned all this don't think that you're forever stuck in your scrawny body because you can build your upper body and the even better news is that you can build upper body muscle fast. In a matter of a few weeks you can see major differences that will get your buddies talking and all the girls gawking...yes, girls gawk!

But to achieve this goal, you do need to start putting all the muscle building pieces together. (I did a review of a program that gives you all the information and steps to follow to get you to your ultimate body. You can read more about it here.)

It's time to start seriously looking at caloric intake, not only how much but what type of calories, and when you take them in as well. Plus, you need to really train like you want to build muscle. Focus on lifting weights in the gym, not socializing. Work to increase weight each and every training session to constantly push and break down muscle fiber.

And guys, stop constantly performing your reps at the speed of light. The building happens in a hypertrophy state. That requires constant tension on the muscle which means slower reps. And use every part of the exercise to your advantage...that means the negative portion on the lift . So what I'm saying is STOP just dropping the weight on your last set. Control that weight all the way through to the end of the movement.

Sleep is a requirement. Work to get 8 to 9 hours every night. Rest is another necessity. When performed correctly, 3 to 4 days a week lifting weights will get you results.

Beyond that you need to learn the proper techniques to lifting weight...slow controlled moves from beginning to end. Implement a cardiovascular training program, 20 minutes at moderate intensity, 3 times a week. Stretch and work on flexibility. Stay determined, committed, diligent, and consistent. And that's still not everything.

Putting all the right principals into practice WILL cause your muscle to grow and build. (Do you need help putting all the puzzle pieces together? My review of a program you can trust that does that for you for you can be found by clicking here.)

Even applying just this information alone is invaluable in giving you a step in the right direction for a skinny man to build muscle.

Are you "skinny guy" struggling to build upper body muscle simply because you can't seem to find a program that works? You won't have that problem anymore. No

Now I'm not going to kid you. There are NO SHORTCUTS to building upper body muscle and strength. But, if you're willing to put some work into it, you'll get the body you want with No Nonsense Muscle Building.

As I mentioned previously, I was going to recommend a program that I believe in 100% to help you build your upper body muscle. Hey, if I didn't have personal experience in it and didn't believe in it, I flat out would NOT recommend it. But, you don't have to take my word for it.

Take a look at what these "skinny" guys have to say about this program and their success.

"If Some Is Not Seeing Results, They Must Be Doing Something Wrong..."

"First I would like to note, that your programs are revolutional. If there is anyone out there who does not see results, they must be doing something wrong, and/or not reading the instructions correctly. Ive been following the workout plans in the Cutting book, and am writing to also tell you that they worked wonderfully.

However, I really wanted to tell you that this video was an amazing look into the world of training and supplements. I actually now quote you and your material when you explain in your books what a money making industry it is.

I just wanted to share that with you. Your workouts have helped my training considerably - I wish less people would get suckered in by the glamour of the industry though. Thank you."

"After A Few Days Muscles Were Noticeably Bigger And Firmer."

"I took your advice (from the Hardgainers Success Kit)and the results were almost immediate and my muscles felt exhausted.

After a few days they were noticeably bigger and firmer.

So if this has happened over the period of a week, I can't wait to see what happens over the next couple of months!

The kit was brilliant and extremely useful and helpful. It was genuinely nice to not have someone trying to feed you b.s and it was really good to be given the straight and simple facts needed to build muscle fast. It was well worth my time and I thank you."

"Easy With The Step By Step Process!

"As for your book, so far it has helped me see new techniques on how to add mass to your body. I agree with how fitness magazines are not geared in the direction that your book is.

The overall breakdown of how everything works is easy with the step-by-step process that can be implemented for any fitness level. Also, the service I have received is exceptional and makes the whole process seem very personable. Thanks"

""Using the principles of YSPQ, I was able to go from 195 to 179 in a matter of 12 weeks. My waist went from 33 to just under 30. I've been noticing veins and cuts I've never seen before!

For the first time in my life I had people coming up to me in the gym asking what kind of supplements I take!
I was also asked if I compete in bodybuilding and fitness expos. I don't, but my new transformation has given me the motivation to try and be the best I can possibly be and I have signed up to compete in my first show. Thanks for all the info and great tips Vince."

If you're serious about building upper body muscle...then get started now for under $10 by clicking here.

Many of the magazines you read to try and get information about how to build upper body muscle will lead you to performing exercises that isolate specific muscles while spending long hours in the gym.

Although this technique can be incorporated into an overall muscle building routine, to get the fastest overall results, this is not the best way to build your upper body.

Why? Because these isolation exercises only work on one muscle group. When you go to the gym, you need to get the most out of your time there. And you don't want to be there for several hours a day to get the upper body muscle you want.

Plus, when you look at how the body works and the hormones in your body impact muscle growth, then you understand the need to have those hormones work in your favor. The hormones I'm referring to are things like your naturally produced human growth hormone, cortisol, testosterone, and more.

Compound exercises are those that work several muscle groups all at once. Using them works your whole body at once and limits your gym time to 3 days a week, 45 min to an hour for each of those days.

Does that surprise you???? It's okay, it a new concept for many. See working out and building real, lean rock solid muscle doesn't require you to spend 4 hours a day, six days a week at the gym. That is a myth that has been widely spread and sold to guys for years and truthfully...well, it's long overdue for extermination.

See, by using and performing compound exercises correctly, you work your whole body in under an hour and because you work your whole body, you only need to lift 3 days a week. Plus, working the big muscle groups and working them hard causes the production of anabolic hormones with one being extremely beneficial. Can you guess which one??? You got it...Testosterone. And it's that hormone you created using a compound weight lifting routine that will maximize your efforts to build upper body muscle.

And keeping your workouts short helps prevent the build up of cortisol, which when produced in excessive amounts actually creates a negative component to the muscle building process. In fact, increasing cortisol amounts can contribute to belly fat storage instead the building of muscle.

Now with this information and your new workout schedule, you'll have the time to do all those other things you want to do.like hang out at the beach with your shirt off...especially now that you have that hot looking new upper body muscle.

Okay, in my never ending quest to continue to give you honest straight forward information, it's time to talk about supplements. And the first thing I'm going to say is that...you don't need them. That's right! You don't need supplements. Everything you need to build your ultimate upper body can be obtained through the perfect regimented nutrition, exercise, and rest plan.

That means, consistently stay on track with your exercises, eat the right number of calories and the right kind of calories everyday, and get 8 to 9 hours of sleep every day. If you can do that then I'm going to tell you to stay away from supplementation.

But if you can't do that....then I'm going to say that supplementation may help you to achieve your body building goals.

If you can't get the right number of grams of protein in your daily diet through food intake, then a whey protein may be an option for you. If your metabolism needs a kick start, then a thermogenic may be your answer. These are decisions you will have to make based on your workout and eating lifestyle.

What I can do is help you find a good high quality supplement company who isn't going to just throw some things together, call it a muscle building enhancer, and promise you 50lbs of new muscle in 2 weeks from using it.

The company I use is Prograde. I believe in their product, the ones I use, and I believe in their commitment to provide you with the best quality. If you feel you need to add supplements as a part of your training, you can see what the have available here.

And oh, by the way...I told you I would be honest with you so let me say here that "I'm a proud Prograde partner" meaning that I do get commision for sales made via this page.

This is an e-mail from Vince Delmonte, creator of the No-nonsense Muscle Building System, a natural way to build upper body muscle. This is what building his upper body muscle and changing his body has done for him. This is what it can do for you.

It all started with wanting to look good on the beach, catch female attention, and impress his buddies. Do you feel the same?

Building muscle unlocks the door to a whole new world.... confidence, pride, respect, attention, recognition and power. I could list another dozen reasons but you get the point.

That's why I wrote my book, No Nonsense Muscle Building. It's the same formula I followed to transform myself so you could simply copy me and model my routine. Think about it...

Life is too short to go unnoticed and be average.

My world completely changed when I packed on the first 41 pounds of muscle. I literally felt like a new man and that I could take on any challenge.

Building all that muscle gave me the confidence to pursue a career as a Personal Trainer; move away from home; buy my first house at the age of 22; go on dates with any girl I wanted; walk through a night club without feeling out of place; save up enough money to buy my first dream car; and to start helping my buddies weight train and eat properly.

And most exciting... by becoming a new man I eventually attracted the women of my dreams who will be my wife in a few short months! This can be YOUR story too.

"I am ready to start now"

The crazy thing was that I just wanted to look good on the beach. I never had any intentions or hopes of getting all of those other benefits too. I just didn't want to look like a scrawny runner anymore.

I had no idea I would write a book one day. Or help people all over the world. I had no clue I would ever speak at live events and have customers in over 120 different countries. And I had no clue I would get up on stage in a euro style bathing suit on show off my physique for fitness model competitions... !

I always figured I would be a long distance runner my entire life. Good thing I hit the gym eh?!

Who knows what opportunities you'll pursue after you get your body to where you want it.

So what's the point of this email?

If you can live large INSIDE the gym, there is no reason you can't live large OUTSIDE of the gym.

If you can build the body of your dreams then there is no reason you can't get the girl of your dreams, the career of your dreams, be your own boss, overcome a health issue, beat a bad habit, stand up to someone who's pushing you around, or just be your own person without following the crowd.

YOU NEED TO BELIEVE THAT!

It all starts with getting the right information in your hands and then taking ACTION. I wrote two books in the past few years to help you prove to yourself that what I'm saying is not fairy dust.

I want you to pick up the book that you need most because it'll change your life. The layers of muscle and six pack you get is not even the good stuff... I kid you not. It's what comes WITH the muscle and six pack that is REALLY exciting.

That's what you really want. That's what you deserve. It's 13 days into 2010, lets make it happen THIS year.

Click here to muscle up and get a muscular upper body .

Your life is getting shorter every day... don't take your pulse for granted... Do something with it while you can.

Forward!

There are a lot of programs out there that make a lot of promises and the infomercials make them sound like they are the next best thing to the invention of protein powder. But all too often they don't provide real results for guys like you dealing with skinny man genetics, time constraints of a busy life, and more.

None of these programs provide the complete package for building upper muscle, especially what you need to build upper body muscle. They either don't give you all the information you need, lie and aren't being honest about building muscle, don't work for average people like ourselves, or all of the above.

Let me guess, you've probably tried all of these programs yourself and found out that none of them worked, not one. There is one program that does and your body with show it. If you are serious about wanting to build upper body muscle fast and ready to make a committment to making a change, this is your solution too.
