How long do you have to lift weights a day to get muscles in 2 months?
Answer:
Longer isn't better. The quality of your routine is more important.
I hardly ever go over forty minutes with my lifting. I do, however, do thirty mins to an hour of cardio as well... but that's mainly because I'm working up my stamina as much as I can.
Three times a week is sufficient if you're doing a full body workout. Six times a week is good if you're used to it and are doing a more advanced uppper/lower body split. Furthermore, despite what some say, machines are an excellent complement to free weights. I do both. If you want to bulk up, free weights are better, however.
If you really want to know what the most important piece of gym equipment you can get is, it's dumbbells! You can do a full body workout with a good set of dumbbells.
well the best type of weights to lift are free weights. Not machines, so you should probably be lifting for an hour and half mayb 4 or 5 times a week
There really isn't a certain amount of time you need to spend lifting every day to gain muscle, and doing too much leads to over-training and can be more harmful than otherwise.
If you're new to lifting, you'll probably see dramatic improvements immediately.
Go to bodybuilding.com and find a good beginner's routine, and start doing it!
Be sure to eat well while you do it though--that's as important as the exercise!
Personally, I lift 7 lb free weights every other day. On off days, I do cardio to reduce fat. For the weights, I would suggest three reps of 12. You should be feeling a difference almost immediately.
1hr1/2 or more or less and work hard. Do every other day so ur muscles can rest and rebuild. (I rest on weekends)
average people usually workout for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Three muscle groups per exercise and 3 exercises per muscle group.
You should also do push ups, cause it makes your arms stronger. =]
