When is the best time to exercise with dumbbells?

In daily life, every boy hopes to develop a body of beautiful muscles, which will not only attract the attention of the opposite sex, but also make his girlfriend feel safe when he leans on him. Strength is very important for men. The most common way for men to exercise is to use fitness equipment such as dumbbells to practice arm and arm strength. If you want to exercise, you must arrange the correct and reasonable time. So when is the best time to exercise with dumbbells?

The 14 secrets to increasing muscle mass: heavy weights, low repetitions, multiple sets, long displacement, slow speed, high density, consistent thoughts and movements, peak contraction, continuous tension, relaxation between sets, training large muscle groups, eating protein after training, resting for 48 hours, and preferring lightness to falseness.

1. Heavy weight, low number of repetitions: In bodybuilding theory, RM is used to represent the maximum number of repetitions that can be done continuously with a certain load. For example, if an athlete can only lift a weight 5 times in a row, then that weight is his 5RM. Studies have shown that: 1-5RM load training can make muscles thicker and develop strength and speed; 6-10RM load training can make muscles thicker and improve strength and speed, but the increase in endurance is not obvious; 10-15RM load training does not significantly thicken muscle fibers, but strength, speed and endurance are improved; 30RM load training increases the number of capillaries in the muscles and improves endurance, but the improvement in strength and speed is not obvious. It can be seen that a load weight of 5-10RM is suitable for bodybuilding training to increase muscle volume.

2. Multiple sets: Whenever you remember to exercise, you do 2-3 sets. This is actually a waste of time and will not help you build muscle. You must set aside 60 to 90 minutes to focus on training a certain part of your body, and do 8 to 10 sets of each movement to fully stimulate the muscles. At the same time, the muscles need a longer recovery time. Keep doing this until the muscles are saturated. The "saturation" is something you need to feel yourself. The appropriate standards are: soreness, swelling, numbness, firmness, fullness, expansion, and obvious thickness of the muscles.

3. Long displacement: Whether it is rowing, bench press, push-up, or curl, you must first put the dumbbells as low as possible to fully stretch your muscles, and then lift them as high as possible. This one sometimes conflicts with “continuous tension”. The solution is to quickly pass through the “locked” state. However, I do not deny the role of heavy weight half-range movements.

4. Slow speed: Lift slowly and then lower slowly to stimulate the muscles more deeply. In particular, when lowering the dumbbells, you should control the speed and do concession exercises to fully stimulate the muscles. Many people ignore concession exercises, and consider lifting the dumbbells as completing the task, and then put them down quickly, wasting a great opportunity to increase muscle size.

When is the best time to exercise with dumbbells? Many people will feel overwhelmed due to long-term weight-bearing, and some people will give up halfway, but this will cause damage to the muscles. We need to pay attention to the time of dumbbells should be controlled within 10 minutes or 20 minutes step by step, and pay attention to gentle movements, excessive force will cause strain.
