Pumping: Build Muscles Fast

The buzzword pumping is a type of training using weights, dumbbells and other weights. Rather, it is the effect of training, when the muscles seem to be “pumped up”. How does it work?

The word “pumping” is from English and is translated as “pump”. Those who observe the changes in the people involved sometimes joke that the muscles are “pumped up”, hence the name. Jokes as jokes, but it really works. No, not a pump literally.

Due to intense training, metabolic products enter the cells, carrying water with them. Beause of this, the muscles thicken and increase in volume in a short period. It turns out to achieve, so to speak, “cosmetic” effect. It is because of this that this technique is often used by bodybuilders, athletes and actors for filming films.

How to pump?

To perform the exercises, it is necessary to use not very large weight, but at the same time very quickly and with great power. Therefore, there should be a burning sensation in the muscle. That rocks. It is necessary to do as many approaches as possible with minimal rest time. The optimal number is 10-15 repetitions in 3 sets for the upper body and 15-20 for the lower one. The workout is carried out in incomplete amplitude, the muscles work like a pump.

Pumping can be done separately or in combination with other exercises. To do this, for a start, it is enough to supplement the workout, completing it with a pumping of a couple of exercises.

The benefits of pumping

• It is not difficult to follow the correct technique, which means there are great chances of success.
• An excellent workout for specific muscle groups, which is provided by a high neuromuscular connection.

Disadvantages of pumping

• If you do not keep in shape, then the effect of pumping disappears much faster than after pumping up muscles in another way.
• When “drying” the body, pumping is ineffective, as it begins to burn muscles, and not the fat layer.

If you want to have a relief body, then with systematic pumping exercises you will definitely succeed! So it is not necessary to pump up to the state of bodybuilders, you can stop at the desired result at any time.
