How long do you have to go to the gym to see improvement?
Within three to six months, an individual can see a 25 to 100\% improvement in their muscular fitness – providing a regular resistance program is followed. Most of the early gains in strength are the result of the neuromuscular connections learning how to produce movement.
Why don’t I see any results after working out?
You Aren’t Working Hard Enough Simply showing up and socializing while you put in the minimal amount of effort will cause you to stop seeing results. You need to push yourself with every workout if you want to see some changes for the better when it comes to your body.
Is just showing up to the gym enough to get fitter?
Just showing up and going through the motions isn’t enough to get fitter and see the results you want. Maybe you go to the gym every day and watch what you eat, but still aren’t hitting your physique goals. It’s a common thing, and even dedicated gym rats hit plateaus from time to time.
Are you not there in spirit at the gym?
You’re not there in spirit. You might show up and execute all sets and reps, but you’re doing it without any attempt to improve since your last workout. You choose your favorite muscle groups and then fail to do the ones you don’t enjoy doing, usually by procrastinating them into Sunday. And then you say, “Oh well, I’ll start fresh on Monday.”
Are You hitting the gym but not hitting your goals?
Maybe you go to the gym every day and watch what you eat, but still aren’t hitting your physique goals. It’s a common thing, and even dedicated gym rats hit plateaus from time to time. Switching up your routine frequently is a major key, but there’s more that could be going on if you’re at a standstill when it comes to your progress in the gym.
Do I have to do every set to failure to build muscle?
No, you don’t have to bring each and every set of every exercise to failure and beyond with forced reps and dropsets. But if you’re serious about adding muscle, you must do some work that takes you close to the edge of your ability.
