Here are 5 Things that affect how fast you build muscle:
- Training Age
Your training age is how long you’ve been lifting weights. If you’re a
newbie, you will be able to gain more muscle faster than if you’ve been
lifting for many years.
- Hormonal Profile
The amount of testosterone and other muscle building hormones in your
body can vary because (1) your lifting regimen does not help elicit a
testosterone response (i.e. not lifting legs, or not lifting heavy
enough), or (2) your body simply doesn’t produce as much
testosterone…which brings me to the next variable.
- Genetics
There is a concept of a genetic bell curve, which I discussed in the maximum muscle potential
article. To summarize, some men are naturally inclined to build a lot
of muscle because of factors such as hormonal balance, or the thickness
of their frames whereas others have trouble building much muscle no
matter how hard they try. Most people of course by definition (roughly
68%) are genetically average.
- Muscle Memory
If you are 180lb then you decided to train for a marathon, you may lose a
solid 20lb of muscle. So how long will it take you to gain back those
20lb of muscle back? Answer: Not long at all. Maybe only a 1-2 months,
because your body has a mechanism for restoring the previous
homeostasis, which is often referred to as “muscle memory”.
- Supplements
Heavy duty supplements like steroids, or other potentially harmful,
performance enhancing substances that can help you build muscle much
faster, but I’m assuming you are far too smart to do that! Other less
dangerous, but still potentially harmful substances like Creatine can
aid in muscle growth as well.
