Physical therapists and personal trainers are experiencing a high spike in patients/clients coming in for neck and back pain due to the usage of their mobile devices.
How Long Does It Take To Build Muscle?
The answer varies per person depending on one’s genetics, fitness level, hormones and diet. An optimal strength training routine is 2 to 3 times a week, targeting all major muscle groups, performing 3 sets of each exercise to the point of muscle fatigue along with an adequate amount of protein in your diet. Muscle growth begins around week 4 from consistent weight training, however, it is generally not visible to the naked eye. 8 -12 weeks is the usual time period when people begin to notice the results of hypertrophy (muscle growth).
The good news is that it is never too late to make a difference in your physical health and we actually have quite a bit of control with how our bodies look and function.
