How to build muscles

Want to build muscles fast?
Know what muscles are.
Muscles are tissue made up of
contractile muscle cells, which are derived from the mesodermal
layer of embryonic germ cells. Muscle cells have contractile
filaments that help in arrangement and rearrangement of its
shape according to requirements. They form an integral part of
our exo- skeletal system. 
In fact, they are an integral
part of the musculoskeletal system. They help us in forming and
retaining our body shape. Most importantly, they work in
concert with our skeleton system to effect movement of our body
parts. In an average adult male, up to 40 to 50% of body weight
is derived from skeletal muscle and in an adult female, up to
30 to 40% of the body mass is derived from the skeletal
muscle.

Broadly, muscles are
classified as skeletal, cardiac, or smooth muscles. Further,
muscles are also classified according to the type of action
they perform – voluntary and involuntary. The movement or
action of the involuntary muscles is independent of the
conscious control of the being. The movement of the voluntary
muscles is mostly noticeable and helps in locomotion. But the
action or movement of an involuntary muscle is mostly not
visible, since they are associated with internal organ, like
the heart, esophagus, stomach, intestines, bronchi, uterus,
urethra, bladder, blood vessels, skin etc.
Further, the voluntary muscles
are categorized as slow twitch and fast twitch. Voluntary
muscle with slow twitch fibers can remain contracted for longer
periods of time but requires little force. But the fast twitch
voluntary muscle fibers contract quickly and powerfully but
gets fatigued very fast. It is important to know what muscles
are to develop a regimen that would help you to build muscles
fast.
Want to build muscles fast? Know
how they work.
The movement of any muscle is
controlled by some neurotransmitters. A sophisticated network
of nerves is connected with all the muscles; this network is
centrally connected and controlled by the Central Nervous
System. These neurotransmitters act on some special chemicals
in the muscle, which initiates contraction and relaxation of
the muscle. It is thus extremely important to have a diet,
which is balanced and helps this extremely delicate system
perform efficiently and thereby help you to build muscles
fast.
Want to build muscles fast? Know
their physical attributes.
The density of mammalian
skeletal muscle tissue is around 1.06 kg/liter, which means it
is extremely important to maintain this density with proper
food and water balance. This density becomes important since it
has correlation with the efficiency of the muscle. The
efficiency of a muscle is defined as the ratio of mechanical
work output to the total metabolic cost. The efficiency of
human muscle, measured during rowing and cycling is 14% to
27%.

Exercise.
Contrary to popular belief,
the number of muscle fibers in any muscle is fixed and such
that it cannot be increased through exercise. Alternately,
through exercise the muscle cells simply gets bigger and more
powerful. Physical Exercise is often recommended to improve the
motor skills, fitness and strength of the muscle. In fact, a
well-planned exercise regime has a positive effect upon muscles
and all other parts that are associated with muscles, like the
connective tissue, bone and the nerves that stimulate the
muscle action. In fact, exercise is the best way to build
muscles fast.
Take the course of Aerobic
Exercise to build muscles fast– Marathon, Jogging,
etc
Aerobic exercise involves long
but low levels of force exertion. During aerobic exercise,
muscles operate below their maximal contraction strength but
they act for long periods of time. This action is performed
with consumption/utilization of oxygen, fat, protein and
carbohydrates (energy source). A little amount of lactic acid
is produced as the by-product.
Anaerobic Exercise like Weight
Training, Sprinting, Cardio, also help to build muscles fast
–
Anaerobic exercise involves
short bursts of higher intensity contractions of the muscle.
These contractions are effected at a much higher level of their
maximum contraction strength. The anaerobic exercise requires
glucose as fuel, consumes relatively less oxygen, protein and
fat. It produces large amounts of lactic acid as by
products.
The “strength” of a muscle is
associated with three basic factors:
* Physiological factor -
involves muscle size, cross sectional area, available
cross-bridging, responses to training.
* Neurological factor – strength
and weakness of the signal that controls the movement of the
muscle.
* Mechanical factor - muscle's
force angle on the lever, length of the moment arm,
capabilities of the joint.
A combination of aerobic and
anaerobic exercises is necessary to build muscles
fast.
