By Muscle Guy • December 28, 2009

Spending hours in the gym to build muscle up and not making progress? Excellent news! There is a real cahce that just this one oversight is stopping you from building muscle up fast. The knowledge of this can significantly increase your ability to build muscle up. For a lot of people this little known truth can easily help them build muscle up fast.

So what is this unique secret? An amazing new miracle pill or something?

No certainly not. It is a hormone know as cortisol, known about for a long time but ignored by many weight lifters.

What is cortisol?

Produced in response to stress placed on the body cortisol is a hormone released by the body throughout the day. Levels of cortisol decrease steadily througout the day so are lowest in the evening.

What does it do?

Well it enhances your short term memory, aids in regulation of blood sugar levels and helps detox the liver. However it can raise blood pressure and decrease bone density if your cortisol levels get too high, however this would be unusual. However it will decrease muscle mass as it promotes the use of muscle as energy and not fat. this is the reason that workouts should be under an hour long. After this they will actually be inhibiting their progress not speeding it up!

Here are a few guidelines to ensure that you are not wasting your time trying to build muscle up:

1) limit your cardio workouts, too much cardio causes the body to release cortisol which as explained is not what we need.

2) Try to not drink too much caffeine as this can also cause corisol levels to rise.

3) Make sure your workouts take less than an hour. Stay foccussed, consider wearing headphones if this helps.

4) Stress causes the body to release more cortisol too so try to relax, although granted this is easier said than done.

5) Eat small regular meals because infrequent meals make the body think it is starving and will thus try and use uneccesary muscle for energy before using fat reserves by releasing more cortisol.

6) Sleep. This is when your muscle building hormones peak and your cortisol levels are highest so shot for 8 hours sleep.

With those no nonsense muscle building tips in mind you should be able to give your workouts a great boost now you know how to gain weight fast more efficiently.
