The Quickest Ways To See Visible Results In The Gym
|
Do you ever feel like you’re wasting your time in the gym? One of the worst misconceptions, especially around weight training in the gym, is that it should be easy to see results from the get-go. The truth is, weight training and bodybuilding, in particular, take an average of 6 weeks to make visible changes. Even then, the visible changes don’t often meet expectations. There are, however, some things you can do to speed up the transformation process. Read on the find out more.
Diet And Supplements Are Almost More Important Than Weights
Another common misconception about gaining muscle and the desired physique is that weights are more important than diet and supplements. Weights are one part of the equation – diet and supplements are typically the deciding factors, particularly for tall, slim people with a high metabolism.
There are a few rules of thumb that people wanting to put on muscle should follow to see results faster in the gym – eating in a calorie surplus, taking muscle growth-promoting supplements, and considering the temporary use of steroids to promote muscle growth. Steroid use is on the rise, helping people that struggle to put on weight and muscle to finally achieve results – search for steroids Canada to learn more.
Consistency With Progressive Overload Is Key
One of the many pitfalls of people starting in the gym is misunderstanding how to build muscle through weights. Without progressive overload, building muscle will take far longer than it potentially has to. Progressive overload gradually puts the muscle under stress to cause tears in the fibers – as these tears heal, muscle grows and becomes stronger. It’s one of the key principles for muscle growth and development that many newbies to the gym ignore.
Consistency, in general, also plays a factor. To see results quickly, people need to develop a routine that’s consistent from week to week. Training three, four, or five times a week doesn’t necessarily matter, but finding consistency with training the different muscle groups does. That’s what’s known as a training split. A training split might include the upper body, lower body, and core. As confidence in training goes, this can progress to specific movements that target different muscles – for example, a push, pull, and legs split.
The Best Exercises For Desired Results
Diet, supplements, consistency, and a well-planned training split are essential, as is doing the right exercises. As a general rule of thumb, compound exercises are the best for yielding the fastest results. These are exercises that target multiple muscle groups at once – for example, deadlifts, squats, and shoulder presses. As people progress along their gym journey and notice results, they can begin to incorporate isolated exercises that target improvements of specific muscles. Compound exercises build the general foundation, and isolated exercises perfect the physique.
Experts believe it takes around three to six months to see physique improvements from the gym. They also say it takes an average of six weeks to build a routine and passion for the gym. The gym will never yield instant results, but there are things you can do to speed up the process.

AHS confirms case of measles in Edmonton – CityNews Edmonton
Alberta Health Services (AHS) has confirmed a case of measles in Edmonton, and is advising the public that the individual was out in public while infectious.
Measles is an extremely contagious disease that is spread easily through the air, and can only be prevented through immunization.
AHS says individuals who were in the following locations during the specified dates and times, may have been exposed to measles.
- April 16
- Edmonton International Airport, international arrivals and baggage claim area — between 3:20 p.m. and 6 p.m.
- April 20
- Stollery Children’s Hospital Emergency Department — between 5 a.m. to 3 p.m.
- April 22
- 66th Medical Clinic (13635 66 St NW Edmonton) — between 12:15 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
- Pharmacy 66 (13637 66 St NW Edmonton) — between 12:15 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
- April 23
- Stollery Children’s Hospital Emergency Department — between 4:40 a.m. to 9:33 a.m.
AHS says anyone who attended those locations during those times is at risk of developing measles if they’ve not had two documented doses of measles-containing vaccine.
Those who have not had two doses, who are pregnant, under one year of age, or have a weakened immune system are at greatest risk of getting measles and should contact Health Link at 1-877-720-0707.
Symptoms
Symptoms of measles include a fever of 38.3° C or higher, cough, runny nose, and/or red eyes, a red blotchy rash that appears three to seven days after fever starts, beginning behind the ears and on the face and spreading down the body and then to the arms and legs.
If you have any of these symptoms stay home and call Health Link.
In Alberta, measles vaccine is offered, free of charge, through Alberta’s publicly funded immunization program. Children in Alberta typically receive their first dose of measles vaccine at 12 months of age, and their second dose at 18 months of age.
