Human beings are naturally impatient, and this even extends to the pursuit of a hard body. Many will ask how to build muscle quickly and, in fact, there are some solid tips that you can follow to get yourself results within a matter of weeks.

What you have to start accepting is that you simply wont gain a lot of muscle if you are not willing to gain fat in the process, especially if you are training naturally and without the use of steroids and growth hormones. As a side note I would never recommend taking these drugs as you will get addicted and the will ruin your body, even though you might not feeling the side effects today, you will feel them in a couple of years.

Learn to trick yourself. One of the best ways to build muscle is to be consistent. If you are having one of those days where you can't get motivated, just tell yourself to get into the gym and give it 20 minutes - chances are, once you are there you will get into it and just go on way past the 20 min mark. The trick is in getting yourself there to begin with!

Another best way to build muscle is to make sure you lift to the point of shutdown. Shutdown is exactly what it sounds like - when your muscles just quit and you physically can't lift any more.

What you want to do instead is to eat healthy foods, in large portions and a lot of protein. You want to get the majority of your protein from red meat, chicken and fish- don't do a weird bulking plan where you are eating 5-6 protein shakes a day.

Get into some supersets. Using super sets is possibly the best way to build muscle, as it makes your workouts tremendously intense, but it will actually shorten the length of them. Who doesn't want bigger gains in less time? So what is a superset? It's basically where you finish one set, and then rest for drastically shorter before you start the next set. If you are normally waiting 2 or 3 minutes between sets, trying reducing it to 30 seconds. You'll feel the different! Hopefully these tips have taught you how to build muscle
