Top 10 Tips To Successful Teen Bodybuilding Part 1

Teen bodybuilding is growing at an alarming rate, as enthusiastic teens hit the gym every night of the week. I don't blame them. Teen bodybuilding is one of the most effective ways to boost a skinny guys self-confidence and self-image. Did I also mention lots of attention and admiration from the ladies and respect from the guys. Teen bodybuilding does not just help out with vanity but promotes a nutritious diet, disciplined lifestyle, and strong work ethic.

So the question is, how is teen bodybuilding done right? Should teen bodybuilders read the latest bodybuilding magazines? Learn from their friends or a professional? Train every day or every other day? Rely on supplements? Start when they are done growing or earlier? Focus on endurance training heavy lifting? Teen bodybuilding has dozens of questions and many different opinions on each. Here is my top 10 tips to successful teen bodybuilding in no particular order:


1. Avoid Steroids

Duh! This might sound obvious and if you have not been offered steroids yet, make your stand now and be prepared to say 'no' when you get backed into a corner. Your body is flowing with more natural hormones than any steroid could replace. Don't screw up your natural hormonal levels at such a young age. Even though all your friends might laugh at you for not conforming to the pressure of using illegal drugs, be a real man and train drug free. In the end your friends will respect you more for staying away from the dark side.

2. Focus On Clean Eating

Old habits die hard. Believe it or not, the nutrition habits you are creating today will affect you all the way into your adult years. As a young teen bodybuilder, you have an opportunity to create good habits at an early age. Focus on eating clean carbohyrdates like whole wheat breads, oatmeal, brown rice, potatoes, fruits and veggies. Focusing on eating a variety of clean proteins like tuna, chicken, fish, cottage cheese and protein shakes. Balance out your meals with clean fats like olive oil, fish oil, natural peanut butter and nuts. Take pride in the fact that you even know what clean eating is. Look at this as an opportunity to be an example to your friends to be walking statue of health! I promise you that you will have a few friends who admire your physique and ask you for advice!

3. Avoid One Body Part Workouts And Focus On A Full Body Workout

A full body workout? But all my friends are training chest tonight. And tomorrow they are training back. And on Wednesday they are training arms. But if you have the courage, you are not going to follow the herd and trust me. You are too young to be splitting up your muscles groups into only one body part a day. Unless you are pursuing a career in competitive bodybuilding, one-body part splits are an excellent way to over train at a young age. Look at it this way. Do you only eat once per week? Do you only take supplements once per week? Do you only sleep once per week? Do you only study once per week? Than why would you train your muscle groups only once per week? It does not make sense. Full body workouts will allow you to hit all your major muscle groups three times in the week, without overtraining, instead of only one time.


4. Emphasize Your Conditioning

Teen bodybuilding can actually become something that appear to be a lazy man's sport. Next time you walk into the weight room, count how many people are actually doing something. Seriously, I guarantee you will see more people standing around and talking, adjusting weights and staring in the mirror. Not many people are actually hustling from one exercise to another or even sweating. That's another reason to avoid one body-part bodybuilding style workouts. They don't emphasize your fitness or cardiovascular system. Your weight training program should be incorporating more than just weights. Balance out your sessions with some skipping, stair climbing, hard running, supersets, and really short rest periods. If you don't feel like you are going to throw up at the end of your weight training sessions, I have to question your workout intensity.

5. Stick to Basic Supplements

Your a teenager and should be saving your money for college and your first car. Don't get scammed by over hyped supplement ads that promise the world. Follow the saying, 'If it looks too good to be true, than most likely it is!” All you need to budget for now is a high quality multi-vitamin which you should take for life as well as a high quality protein powder in your arsenal and a regular omega-3 fish oil cap. Between these three supplements you are more than covered. Don't worry about creatine, glutamine, fat burners, testosterone boosters or even NO2 products. The first three to four years of your lifting should be done with just the basic supplements.

Conclusion.

Teen Bodybuilding - The Latest Upcoming Trend Is Teen Bodybuilding

Following their role models in movies and sports teenage people also start showing interest in bodybuilding activities. Toady bodybuilding is a separate category that constitutes the young teenagers who show interest in bodybuilding. To encourage these people bodybuilding organisations have started to conduct separate competitions for teen bodybuilders. The present celebrity bodybuilders such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lee Priest and Jay Cutler started participating in competitions while they were in their teenage.

The work out of the teen bodybuilders consists of weight exercises such as pull ups, chin ups, push ups, dips and hyperextensions. To start with the exercise, a teenager should first make sure whether his body is strong enough to endure the strong and rigorous weight exercises involved in the process.

If you are a teenager who is interested in bodybuilding, as the first step try to understand the four basic concepts involved in the bodybuilding process. Nutrition, supplementation, the effectiveness of lifting the weight and the overall recovery are the four basic concepts of a teen bodybuilding just like that of an adult bodybuilder.

The process of teen bodybuilding consists of two stages. The first stage that is known as bulk up stage is meant to increase the muscle mass and body fat of the person undergoing the weight exercise or bodybuilding.

The second phase of a bodybuilding is known as contest preparation. At contest preparation more attention will be given to maintain as much muscle as is possible. To increase muscle definition the excess fat in the body should be reduced by following a proper diet suitable for body development.

A teenager undergoing teen bodybuilding should be extra cautious about what he is eating every day. The food that he takes should compliment the muscle development of the body. The bulk up stage of bodybuilding may require five to six meals per day to build more muscle mass in the body. At the same time he should be careful to avoid foods that are too fatty from his daily diet.

Increasing the level of protein intake can be suggested as a best method to increase the muscle growth for a bodybuilder. Experts suggest taking one gram of protein per pound of the body weight a teen bodybuilder like to reach.

He can also take supplements to enhance the muscle growth. Every one who wants to be a bodybuilder should follow an effective weight exercise to tone up the developed muscles in his body. For that he could seek the assistance of an expert trainer.
