3 Fast Tips To Improve Your Muscle Tone

How Can You Improve Your Muscle Tone?

You may not be interested in knowing how to improve your muscle tone if you’re a woman because you think that you’ll develop a bulky muscles if you’re lifting weights. But even if a woman lifted heavy weights everyday she wouldn’t get that male bodybuilder shape. A man’s body develops that way due to his testosterone hormone, which has very low levels in women.

You achieve more weight loss through weight training because even while you’re resting your muscles will be burning calories. If you’re working out with weights 2 to 3 times a week you can reach your weight loss goal much faster. These 3 tips will help you to improve your muscle tone faster than those of your peers.

3 Fast Tips To Improve Your Muscle Tone

1. Use Exercises That Work Out Two or More Muscle Groups

When you’re in the gym, you’re on a clock. You don’t have all day and you don’t have unlimited energy. Because you can only do a limited number of exercises, instead of doing exercises that work out one muscle group, it’s far better to do exercises that work out at least two groups at the same time.

For instance, the pull-up works out your shoulders, triceps, chest and even abdominal muscles. The shoulder press will work your triceps and your shoulders. On the flip side, doing barbell curls will work out just your biceps. It takes the same amount of time as doing other exercises, but only develops one muscle group.

Pick and choose exercises what work out multiple muscles to help streamline and supercharge your workout.

2. Change Things Up Every 2-3 Weeks

If you keep doing the same exercises again and again, your body will get used to the exercise and you’ll stop seeing as much growth from your workouts. Change things up every couple weeks. Use different exercises that target the same muscle groups. Do your reps slowly rather than quickly or vice versa.

Try high weight, low rep if you’ve been doing high rep exercises – or vice versa. Every once in a while, try out a completely different workout style. If you generally do weightlifting for example, try joining your gym’s kickboxing class once every week or two. In short, figure out what your pattern is and change things up so you’re keeping your muscles guessing at all times.

3. Spend No More Than 40 Minutes Working Out

If you’re determined to improve your muscle tone, it can be very tempting to work out for a long time. For example, you might spend an hour and a half a day at the gym really pushing your muscles to the limit.

The reality is, however, spending more than 30 to 40 minutes a day working out is really counter-productive. Within 40 minutes, you’ll be able to push all the muscles you want to work out. You’ll be able to get the maximum gain possible from your day’s workout.

Any additional workouts at that point don’t really do all that much. You’re just burning energy and preventing your body from rebuilding new muscles. If you choose multiple muscle group workouts, change things up regularly and exercise at high intensity for short periods of time, you’ll quickly find you’ll improve your muscle tone.
