Society's pace seems to get faster and faster by the day.  Everybody wants everything yesterday including weight loss and a way to build muscle fast! There are ways to do some things fast, but faster is not always better, especially for weight loss.  However, there are things you can do to build muscle fast and one of those ways is Variety!!

That's right, muscles love variety.  That includes not doing the same workout twice, and  always change the exercises you do.  You can also include multiple exercises into one exercise.  I like to call it multitasking or compound exercises!  Compound exercises save time and can help you build muscle fast by recruiting more muscles to work simultaneously.   For instance, doing Squats with an Overhead Dumbbell Press or a Lunge with a Bicep Curl.  Here's a challenging compound set for you, reverse curls with Kettlebell Chest Press.

Using free weights will help you accomplish your goal to build muscle fast more effectively than using workout machines.  Free weights require more muscles to be used for stability and ensuring proper form than the weight machines will.

Doing your various free weight, multitasking, exercises unilaterally is even better to build muscle fast. That is working the limbs of your upper and lower body, on the same side at the same time.  This unilateral training will increase your strength so both sides of your body are equally as strong.

Include these tips in your workouts to help you build muscle fast and see the rewards for all your hard work!
