Bodybuilders are generally divided into seasonal and non-seasonal. The four seasons are as short as three months and as long as six months.
In the off-season, if you work hard on your diet, you will suddenly gain weight.
Training in the gym has no more than two purposes: 1 lose weight and gain muscle.
But in fact, while gaining muscle, it will inevitably increase the body's fat content, and reducing fat will inevitably reduce the body's muscle content. We ordinary amateurs tend to lose fat slowly and gain muscle at the same time. A big difference between fitness and bodybuilding is that there is no specific period to gain muscle and lose fat, and there is no deliberate requirement for diet. The requirement is to gradually gain muscle and lose fat, but the speed is slow and it is easy to encounter bottlenecks, but the advantage is relatively healthy.
Professional bodybuilders are the opposite. They usually add a basic diet after intensive training every day in the offseason, mainly to gain muscle, and the side effect is that body fat will also increase. In the following season, they increased the intensity of training, controlled their diet (but the diet they controlled was actually very large compared with ordinary people), brushed off the fat outside the muscles and exposed the lines.
There are still terrible things to do in the season, such as dehydration, that is, drinking plenty of water three weeks before the game to adapt the body to such urination, and drinking only a small amount of water one week before the game, but the body is used to such urination, which makes the body's water discharged and enter the "dehydration" state, which can make the body's muscles clearer.
