Are you moving poundages on your squat, deadlift, bench press, row (and every other major compound exercise) that all feel substantially heavy for your body? Are your clothes fitting significantly tighter? Are you generally beginning to gain a reputation as a muscular guy that people aspire to look like?
If the answer is not “yes” to all of the previous questions, then you really don’t need to be concerned about the insignificant details of your body.
If you’re still in your bodybuilding “youth” and don’t already have a considerable amount of muscle mass to show for your efforts, I would strongly suggest taking these types of questions and eliminating them from your mind until you do.
Why? It’s because diverting your focus onto these small and trivial issues will only serve to distract you from the most important and immediate task at hand. And what is the most important and immediate task a hand? It is to pack as much raw muscle size and strength onto your frame as humanly possible!
That’s right; forget about the nitty-gritty details of whether your biceps match your triceps or whether your chest is on par with your back. These are issues that you can worry about later on, but until you’ve thickened up your entire body as a whole to a significant degree, it’s simply not worth worrying about.
If you have been training consistently for less than a year and are still a beginner then you should stop obsessing over details. You should rather focus your attention on the most pressing and fundamental problems. Move to a good weight training routine and be very determined to stick with it.
Keep a record of all of your workouts that you do and try as hard as you can to consistently add as much weight as possible to the bar. Blast through the discomfort zones and difficult compound exercises with passion and intensity.
Start off to self cook in the kitchen by yourself on each and every day, every week, every month and try to prepare properly at least 5 or 6 balanced muscle building meals.
To stay and feel healthy be sure to drink water, rest and take nutrition supplements. Expressed In Different Ways: PAY YOUR DUES FIRST!
If you plan to be in this for a long time (and you should be, as there are no temporary fixes to be had here), this will get you on the most efficient path. The best way in which to proceed is usually to begin with the basics and then get more detailed later.
This is the mentality you need to bring to your bodybuilding program. Just as you wouldn’t attempt a complex guitar solo without learning basic chord shapes first, you also should not attempt to fine-tune and balance out your physique until you have a considerable amount of foundational muscle to work with first.
Developing a well muscled body isn’t brain surgery, but it does require a disciplined and determined mindset. And not until you’ve put in the work and effort, because impressive and muscular bodies have to be earned. Stop spreading out your focus onto every single minute issue that pops up. Continue your training in the gym!
