Bodybuilding Workouts For Your Body Type
When I was younger, I was a willing member of the neighborhood gym. Sure, one of the primary motivators was to look impressive on the beach and to attract the right kind of looks from the girls! But over a period of time, when the gym had become a part and parcel of my life, I discovered that bodybuilding could actually be a fulfilling quest in itself.
More importantly, I discovered that there was a right kind of bodybuilding workout and several wrong kinds of body building workouts. And thanks to the perseverance of my coach and the helpful comments and critiques of my colleagues in the gym, I was able to put together the ideal body building workout to suit my specific requirements.
Most people don’t understand that there could be specific body building workouts for specific people. But the rationale for this is based on the various body types of the people you see around you. Can you say with any degree of certainty that all the people you know come with the same body types? I can’t! I have tall friends, extremely tall friends and short friends. I have fat friends and really obese friends.
I also have thin friends and even practically bulimic friends. And in between there are whole groups of people with short upper bodies to really broad upper bodies; from muscular lower bodies to weak and spindly lower bodies. In short, every imaginable body type. Now having said that, what would make a rational person assume that all these various body types could make do with the same kind of bodybuilding workout?
The fact of the matter is that they can’t. Which is why the individual who is keen to develop a particular kind of body needs to devise a specific body building workout. Speaking for myself, my upper body has always been more muscular than my lower body. So my specific body building workout made me concentrate on developing the lower body muscles. Naturally, the kind of time I spent on my lower body was in much greater proportion to the time I spent on developing my upper body.
Oh sure, in the initial days, I too looked longingly at the men pumping iron while I slogged it out on the treadmill. But soon, the results of my customized bodybuilding workout were rather obvious. The lower body got the shape and strength I desired while the upper body got toned and better!
