Muscle building can be and is done in an all natural way. You can gain appreciable strength and muscle and have long lasting health as well, all these just add to improving your quality of life. Here are some great muscle building exercises that will have you ripped and fit in no time.

1. Chest Exercises:

The chest is mainly composed of the pectoral muscles. These are huge muscles and get a lot of training even when you work your arms. So compound exercises work the best when building chest muscles. A great chest exercise is;

Push-Ups: this is a great beginner's exercise that doesn't really require any special equipment. Push ups work your entire upper body and don't require any specific breathing pattern to be effective. The key to doing push ups is;

Keep your back straight, if you don't your lower back will get strained. Also if you don't have proper form yet, try working form your knees rather than your toes. Also keep the distance between your hand equal to shoulder width.

2. Back Exercises:

Back muscles are also a huge set of muscles and require intense training to build up. Don't be discouraged, as a rule, when you lift heavier, you lift for shorter periods of time. An amazing compound exercise for the back muscles is the dead lift;

Dead Lift: Place a barbell with the appropriate amount of weight on the floor in front of you. Bend over at the waist and grasp the bar with an overhand grip at about shoulder width. Bend your knees at the start and make sure that you keep your back straight. If you need additional back support, use a workout belt. Failing to keep your back straight, will leave you open to back injury. Stand-up, bringing the weight with you and gradually straighten your back and legs.

You return the weight to the starting position in the reverse order i.e. bending first at the knees, then at the waist, eventually placing the barbell back on the floor. This was one rep.

3. Shoulder Exercises:

An amazing group of shoulder exercises are the shoulder presses. Among these, the back press is great favorite with most trainers.

Back Press works the deltoids, triceps, and serratus anterior. You can perform this exercise while standing and by placing a bar on a rack. You start by sitting on a bench with your back straight. Grasp a barbell with an overhand grip and rest the barbell across your shoulders behind your neck. Inhale and press the barbell directly above your head without arching your back. Be sure to exhale as you complete the movement
