Main Body - The nutrition , diet , and all around workouts of an individual play a large part in the success of a bodybuilder due to the effects in which it can have. The two different phases of physiques in the field of bodybuilding are known as bulking and cutting. These particular body phases are achieved through the course of action in which an individual takes when either prepping for a show and or doing it for the fun of the sport.

The "bulking" phase of an individual starts within the off season of that said body builders training. This is referred to as "off season" due to the competitor within that period taking full advantage of not competing by putting on as much size as possible for the full effect of gaining mass to take its course. The diet of the said individual plays a huge part in this due to without the intake of calories in a surplus being at hand, the said body builder will be unable to put on the size needed. The term bulking refers to the ideal that when adding these calories, the gaining of mass which is then to be put towards more muscle growth will come into play.

The workouts of an individual depend largely on the the mass a person wants to attain based off the competition that he and or she is competing in all around. This can entail splitting up your workouts in what many call a "body split" where an individual partakes in an upper and lower body workout , but splits them up accordingly throughout their day. This means that in the morning, that person may do legs where at night he or she may do chest . The splitting of these workouts allows maximum growth for the main muscle groups due that said muscle being worked on more often than not. If one is trying to simply maintain their mass a.k.a is in the phase of cutting, the working out of one muscle group per day referred to as a "bro split" will allow one body part to progress quicker due to the focus of one muscle being in place as opposed to two being focused on. This allows that person to focus solely on one muscle, not having to worry about two at a time where the ideal of muscle hypertrophy may not be able to take place if that person is not working hard enough to break down the fibers in the muscle.

The nutrition in which bodybuilders use most due to the effects it possesses are primarily of the protein category due to the effects it has. These effects entail the allowing nature

that is has as far as the building back up of muscle fibers go. The ideals that come with the term muscle hypertrophy are that when one works out to the their utmost ability when focusing on one particular muscle, the breaking down of the fibers in that said muscle starts to occur. This then allows the swelling of that said muscle, hence why we see the bulging of the muscle in itself when a workout it over. This though is not able to stay this way if the building back up of the fibers is not in place. Thus , where the protein comes into play. The elements within the protein cell bind with the tissue of an individual whom has worked out a muscle, allowing the building of this muscle to take place. The idea of a well balanced diet though is what close to all bodybuilders will look for due to it furthering the chance of their success when all is said and done.
