7:37 Watch my other videos for more muscle-building tips!
In this video, I’m going to tell you how to build more muscle with four easy tips! The purpose of skeletal muscle is to create movement and healthy posture. Muscle is also very important for your metabolism.
High-intensity exercise and protein consumption build muscle. Aim to consume .8 to 1.5 grams of high-quality protein per kilogram of lean body mass. Athletes may need to consume up to 2 grams of protein per kilogram.
1. Creatine
Creatine is found in foods, but if you want to grow your muscles quickly, take creatine as a supplement. Creatine acts as a substitute for energy, especially for short-duration high-intensity exercise. Try taking 20 grams of creatine for five days, then a maintenance dosage of 3 grams daily for the rest of the month, and then continue this cycle between the large and small amounts.
2. Cold therapy
Cold showers, cold immersion, and cryotherapy require your body to generate a tremendous amount of energy to maintain its core temperature. To do this, your body generates a type of fat known as brown fat, which stimulates white fat. This burns a lot of calories!
Cold therapy increases the expression of muscle genes in both rats and humans. It increases RNA, which makes the proteins you need to build muscle. Cold therapy also decreases inflammation.
3. Intermittent fasting
Intermittent fasting stimulates growth hormone, which increases muscle growth. Aim for two meals daily without decreasing your caloric intake-and cut the snacks! Intermittent fasting helps improve insulin resistance, which gets more insulin to the muscle.
4. Arginine
Arginine also increases growth hormone by inhibiting a hormone called somatostatin. Arginine has even been used to increase growth in children. Try taking 3 to 6 grams daily on an empty stomach 30 minutes before you work out.

Thanks for watching! Try these muscle-building tips to help boost muscle growth. I’ll see you in the next video.
1. High intensity exercise 2. Quality protein intake 3. Creatine supplementation 4. Cold therapy
5. Adequate recovery
Yep, I agree on taking out the intermittent fasting of the list as well. Tried years ago while working out hard 5X a week, had way slower gains than recently when I ate 4X times a day. Sorry, but if the objective is to gain most mass as possible Dr. ,IF was horrible for me.

No cold!
Sleep and rest/recovery is key too.
Very key, I’m currently struggling with fatigue cus my sleep is poor

@@deathorb that’s silly. Lol 😂
@garybritting1892 Dr berg is a great youtube doc.
You are the first person I've ever seen on KZhead who correctly mentioned that you should calculate protein needs using your LEAN mass, not just your body weight. THANK YOU!
There are plenty of other persons who have done that.
@@aquamon68true. Mike mentzer
@@aquamon68plenty!
That’s true. Not a lot of people provide this information. I have provided many such useful tips on my channel including this method of calculating protein requirements. But it’s not English 😶
Dr.berg is getting more serious with his videos because of competition. ❤
Someone needs to compile this or Dr Berg has to write a book to preserve this knowledge Its too important
Thanks so much for your support!
AI will !!!
I'm nearly at the 5 month mark with strict diet and workouts. Really started seeing tremendous results when the cold showers were implemented daily. All natural keto diet, minimal snacking on seeds, kraut, and boiled eggs, steak for dinner. Sleeping deeply, and pain threshold is way up. I'm 45 and looking like Tyler Durden, and work 9 hour days with solid focus and energy, and able to push an intense workout in the evening. It's worth it.
Hello, these are outstanding results, congratulations. Would like to know more about your journey. Here is a link for you to share your success story. Looking forward to read it! 👉 www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story
genuinely curios 43m here in best shape of my life but still looking to improve... Ive really learned how to eat constantly to get my metabolism burning red hot. how has the cold therapy resulted in notable improvements?
I swear Dr Berg is reading my mind with his perfectly timed videos.
My wife and I talk about something relating to health and BAM! A new video related to what we were talking about, it's happened so many times now that I'm positive he's listening to us 😂
Happy that you found it useful!
@@DrbergOK so when I train let's say push ups and I did 1 today cz that's my limits after 2 day I can do 2 or 3 that's because mu muscles get stronger and to get stronger muscles you need protein to make them stronger and bigger but I didn't eat protein and I see after month some more muscles that wasn't there befor one month without protein and I know what food have protein You know so can you explain that
Same, I was just searching for ways to train without affecting arthritis and joints for my mum
@@potatoaim523look, you are a beginner, and the case with beginners is that they can grow muscles pretty fast till a certain amount of time, and the thing you said about protein is true but you do eat food right? even if you don't eat protein rich food you still do eat smth that would have some amount of protein, now if you continue to exercise without eating enough protein after about 6 months your muscle growth will stop, and if you still continue to exercise without eating enough protein you will start to lose muscle, i hope you understood the answer.

Excellent, informative, and educating video on overall muscle growth and building! Thanks a million; Dr. Berg!
Creatine and arginine have definitely helped me a ton over the years. Along with Cod liver oil in the last years helped with alot of the joint aches. Thanks Dr berg!! Enjoy your day
Does cod liver oil really help with joint pain ? It's hard for me to trust the sources because we dont know how long the fish has been out of the water before it's actually iced and processed in a timely fashion. My greatest concern is facility cleanliness and rancidity of the oil 😖🤔
Investigate the use of supplemental boron. Incredible research supporting healthy bones and joints, treating arthritis even.
Why do you have joint aches? I dont know how old you are, but I am 63 and I have zero aches and pains, I take hormone replacement and since then, I have no issues, compared to all my friends who don't take it. Have your hormones and thyroid checked. I'm glad I did.
@@loneranger7573 Loneranger. Is your hormone and thyroid supplementation synthetic and or natural?

So weird, this is my first day back to the gym in 8 months and I get this video in my feed. Great tips and motivation! Thank you!
Phones definitely spy on you in some way. I would get videos recommended to me that I never searched up on any computer and only talked about to friends. I think the phones can also get information by the people's phones that are around you. I have had so many times where I've gotten recommend things it could never know unless it was spying on me.
KZhead works in magical ways doesn't it
220000 people watched so the chance that a few just stayed the gym is not surprising
thank you for a summary in the video description.
You are very welcome!
Very informative in a short video, some of these facts are tried and tested!
Great video to put a plan in place on things we know but are slow to implement!
My personal experience with prolonged fasting is that it DOES build muscle. Not the fast itself, but the refeeding/growing phase AFTER the fast. Prolonged fasting boosts HGH to the MAX along with STEM CELLS that build whatever is needed. I'm 52, female, and have as much muscle as I did when I was in my 30s and lifting weights at the gym. I live an active life, but I don't "lift weights."
55 & my arms never looked better…lifting weights is not my thing but yoga, running, walks & good food work wonders.
Don't forget fasting induces your body to generate HGH high growth hormones
This is probably not the best way to build muscles, keeping mtor and high high is done by regular high intensity exercise, especially sprinting and other explosive workout, but in general even in gym high intensity does the work
I think the issue for most would be that if you're talking about like a 1-2 day fast or longer ... Someone like myself who is active would be catabolizing muscle during all the walking my dog in doing and other labor intensive activities. Then, sure I would have a boost once I got back into the eating, and lifting, but it would be spinning my wheels. Yes, if you have slower metabolism or are carrying extra weight, then longer fasts probably work great. But would not recommend for younger, fitter, people/ hard gainers this would be problematic. IMO and experience
@@rotcaka I'm extremely active; homestead with 2 year old Labrador. Never sit down. My prolonged fasts were 3- to 5-days. Did a 3-day DRY fast. Built like a brick house. Oh and I'm 5'2" and 105 lbs. In my experience it's a myth that prolonged fasting doesn't build muscle, or at least the recovery phase of fasting.
So good to hear about muscles growth. I wish I knew this years back.
Tank Am a logger.. Been 2 months no sugar... I started to see benefits ❤

Literally just joined a gym. Perfect timing for this video.
Can you do a video on what all we should do for longevity? I know fasting is good and I’ve been hearing stuff about certain supplements but I want to know exactly in steps what I should do and I know you are the only person I can trust.
Longevity? God revealed everything about this, and about how to live healthy today. You can know it from the pen of Ellen G. White, God's last day prophet. No wonder the Seventh-day Adventists live 10 to 11 years longer than non-Seventh-day Adventists. That's due to their superior health habits. They were informed far in advance about healthy living years before these stuff like fasting, exercise, two meals only, non-smoking, no-caffeine came up only recently. They already know it. That's in their health books way back 1863. The Seventh-day Adventists are more than 150 years advanced when it comes to health, because God revealed many things to Ellen G. White. Read her. Her books are public and there's free online downloadable apps of all her writings.
Outstanding information for us older men who are in shape and weight training!!! I just turned 53 and in the best shape of my life with the energy level equivalent to my 20's and wearing shorts that I haven't been able to wear in over 25 years......and why do I still have shorts from that long ago anyway??? 😁
At 53 you already consider yourself a old man. I'm 61 and I don't consider myself a old man hell no. :-)
@@BainsPummy Well.....let's just say I USED to consider 53 old.....but sorry....61 is old for sure! Lol

Amazing doc thanks
This is exactly what i was looking for on the web and boom i come across your video
Anecdotal: Creatine doesn't need a loading phase. Cold therapy will hinder hypertrophy. When i stopped fasting ,I started gaining muscle. Arginine seems to have a positive effect on hypertrophy. Cheers 🥂
Really needed this. Thank you kindly Dr Berg 😊
Very glad to be of help.
Favourite KZhead doctor
Solid channel, glad I found you!
I'm so glad you're enjoying it!
45 years old, about 60 lbs. overweight with a natural weight of 140 lbs. I consume around 100-160 gr. of protein on my gym days with around 70-100 gr. on off days. My creatine use is around 5-7 gr. per day. I can see a substantial difference in just 2-1/2 months of regular exercise. I was 150 lbs with under 20% body fat before a back injury in 2017. Desperately trying to get my body back before it's too late.
you can do it…. There’s also another great healthy weight loss method if you would like to know what it is.
Thanks for sharing ❤
You're so welcome!
Good stuff. Thank you.
Thanks Doctor for sharing this valuable information.
Glad to help!
Here's one you wont hear very often, as a 16 year bodybuilder (always natural). If Creatine messes with your stomach take EFX Kre-Alkalyn its a PH buffered creatine that will never cause stomach issues or bloat (was a game changer for me) Put Spinach in your post workout protein shakes, it lengthens the time your body absorbs the proteins your body is absorbing post workout, People always say "make sure to take your protein shake within a hour of yoir workout" this lets your take in that and eat your 1st protein heavy meal within a 3 hour window of workout and it will change the game for you. Learned thous from some old body builders I trained with. Helped me tremendously.
People may say that but its unneccesary to take in protein asap. Glucose is more important and if you just take protein your body uses it as a glucose Source and Not for building tissue
Why put spinach in post workout protein ?
@@thisguy7031 I always did within an hour and then got a good meal in within 3 hours.
Creatine upsets your stomach and won't absorb into your blood stream if it's not 100% dissolved in the water before you take it, and it's stubborn about dissolving. My stomach problems disappeared when I switched to creatine HCL because the scoops are smaller and it's more water soluble, plus I stir it into warm water so it dissolves more easily.
@@Durzo1259 that's cool. The ph balanced buffered creatine comes in capsules and I never had 1 stomach issue. It was recommended years ago in a Wright lifting magazine, I believe GNC still carries it. It's a fantastic product. I am actually back at it now, have gained 12lbs of muscle in the past 4 months, might be time to ad it back to the mix.
❤ Thank you so much Doctor Berg 🙏
It was nothing at all.
Dr. Berg thank you for all you do! Love all your content and share it with my loved ones. My question has nothing to do with this video but I need a milk alternative for my 1 year old and my 2 year old. Both can’t tolerate cow milk and don’t like lactose free. Oatmilk that’s pure is so expensive. Advice?
I’m a person that is kind of “sickly” because I have Young Onset Parkinson’s however I use both intermittent fasting and prolonged fasting with Clean Keto and it makes me feel so much better than eating all the time like a normal person. Definitely need to know what you’re doing when you have a disease or consult with someone who does know and have the skills to keep you on track so fasting can help. The Autophagy I get from it is unreal and staying in Ketosis keeps my central nervous system as calm as ever!
Lift more, eat more, rest more, sleep more. Blow it on just one of those and it won't matter what else you do. I think a lot of people look for secret tricks to avoid the first.
Very true!
100% agreed. And i would say that a lot of times people can master the eating and resting aspect but they might not have the fundamental knowledge of just how hard and how much to train in the gym to produce muscle at its best potential. Reducing junk volume but pushing hard in your sets. Not overdoing it with drop sets or beyond failure reps and so on I'd say that these things build up a lot of fatigue for little to no extra gain and that's really what a lot of people miss the point about. A lot of people mistakenly think that going to the gym all days a week will get them muscles but that's simply not true since the body needs rest and high intensity training in appropriate doses
I have a bigger issue with the last😭😭😭
One more you forgot “ Bang More” 😂
Protein.,8-1.5 gm / kgm, Creatin 20gm then down to 3 gm, cold therapy, IF,2 meals a day , no snacks,arginine,2,2gm for short children, 3-6 gm empty stomach,30 minutes before work out, exercises. Keep healthy keep hydrated, sleep well.
Yeah, but no one even mention water.
Dr can you clarify to me, Dr Berg said 20gram for 5 days meaning take 20grams of creatine per day for 5 days consecutively or what?
Grams = g not gm
@@user-lt1xf9xc8w Nah, I'll take it dry.
I'm 67 yrs old. Two years ago, after 15 years of sedentary lifestyle, I began working out while also doing intermittent fasting (16/8). I was over 40% bodyfat (most of it in visceral fat-in my belly). Fast forward to today, I'm 25 lbs lighter, my chest is 3" larger, my waist is 3" smaller, and I'm at 17% bodyfat (I'm now 6'1" and 195lbs). I can keep up with most all men less than half my age. I do not adhere to any particular diet; instead, I eat what I desire, but I simply count calories to keep within my BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate). I cannot express how much better I feel. Friends and family that haven't seen me for a while are amazed at the transformation. The other day, the two young women working the front desk of my gym stopped me, complimented me on my physique and asked my age. Their mouths were both agape when I told them. Great things happen when action is taken.
This is excellent, Thank you
You are very welcome.
Low reps. 5-7 reps to isometric or negative failure. Don’t just hit positive failure which isn’t enough. (Forced negative or loaded weight negatives are best.) High protein high good fats. Rest. Each body party once per week. Most people do light weights and try to hit each body part multiple times a week. (Growth is slow and gains stop after about 8 months to a year.) LOW REPS- lots of rest between sets. Lots of recovery between each body part trained. This advice is the opposite of what people want to hear. After 26 years personal training and writing a book on the topic of negative reps - the tips I listed will ensure continued muscle growth beyond what you’ll ever thought possible.
What's negative failure
Negative failure = success ?🤔
All good, but gymnasts train everyday pretty much. If your body builds a tolerance, follow it. Listen to body but yeah, it's all good advice.
Well, intense negative training requires a good amount of carbs or gains are virtually impossible, esp post work out.
Mike mentzer was all about this training routine. So ahead of his time.
Be careful with creatine. I was only taking a half serving (I have a low body weight), and I got horrible cramping, first in my lower legs and then in all my extremities. You need to drink a ton on water to a avoid this as it pulls the water out of the extra-cellular tissue and into the muscles. It also builds up in your system and takes up to six weeks to leave the body.
A NFL player once told me that when taking creatin you HAVE to drink a lot of water because creatin will dehydrate you. That's probably what happened to you
Try Kre - Alkalyn, it's a PH buffered creatine that will cause less issues, but you do have to at least triple up on your water with any of them.
Creatin, along side restoring your atp energy, sends water in your muscle. If you aren't drinking enough water you will of course have cramps. 3L of water should be enough if you are low body weight. Also don't listen to what this guy is saying. It isn't proven to cycle it and you should aim for 0,15g for kg.
I took 500 mg magnesium and the cramps disappeared
@@martialchampagne I take 210 mg per day plus use magnesium spray directly on the muscles. My cramps were definitely from dehydration due to the water being pulled into the muscles from the creatine. I stopped the creatine about a month ago and it seems to be wearing off now.
Thank you Dr Berg for sharing another great video. May God blessed you and your family!

Sure thing!
Brilliant video respect brother YNWA
You should make a long video on this topic
I have/had a brain tumour, and I wanted to pack on some muscle quick, so I took some creatine for a while and my latest scans from the hospital show some "nodules" (not the origional nurocytoma that I healed from with I.F and keto) and felt some pressure in my head for a few weeks before I stopped. So i feel creatine can benifit you but if you have any type of tumour I'd maybe think twice about using it.
The 20grams he recommends seems excessive. Did he mean 20 g over 5 days = 5g/ day? I rarely ever take more than like 2-3 g/ day and usually just cycle on and off constantly. Sometimes 1 g, sometimes 3g ... Sometimes trace amounts. I've always supplemented in this way with multivitamins,etc. I feel it's more natural. The body would get random amounts of nutrients depending on the food source and time of year and what's available ... Hope You're doing well 🙏 ✌🏽 Thanks for sharing about contraindications!
I follow Mike Mentzer HIT, and is given me ousting results. Obviously with great nutrition.
thanks doc
This was a great video! ☺️
I’m wondering what you think of Netflix “The Game Changers” that showed studies of plant protein being just as good for building muscle as animal protein? And vegan athletes that claimed they could build muscle just as easy?
Hi there. Please see here: kzhead.info/sun/iZqgmq2vr6WwrYU/bejne.html
@@DrbergThanks bro!
I'm vegan and have put on plenty of muscle..hydration via fruit is just as important for me as protein
Hey Doc. Chris Hemsworth was a vegan and so is his trainer. Sarina Williams and many other vegan have built and/maintained muscles as well. 🤔
Yes I can attest!
Hey Doc, how often would say to return to a 20g intake of creatine for 5 days? Should it be once every couple months?
Great video, i would look into Citrulline vs. Argenine for supplementation. I have read that Citrulline converts to Argenine in the body and is much more effective! Also, there is much controversy regarding the "loading" phase of creatine. I personally don't "load" just make sure you don't miss taking it, even on your "off" days.
00:00 💪 Muscle growth is essential for movement, posture, and metabolism, and maintaining muscle mass is crucial for metabolic health, especially as one ages. 00:42 🥩 High-intensity exercise and adequate protein consumption, preferably from animal sources, are well-known methods to increase muscle growth. 02:42 💊 Creatine supplementation indirectly supports muscle growth by providing energy for high-intensity exercises, aiding in ATP recycling and recovery. 04:18 ❄ Cold therapy, such as cold showers or cryotherapy, can increase calorie burn, stimulate brown fat production, and enhance muscle gene expression. 05:56 🕰 Intermittent fasting, when done correctly, can stimulate growth hormone secretion and improve insulin sensitivity, potentially aiding in muscle growth. 07:08 💊 Arginine supplementation can increase growth hormone levels by inhibiting somatostatin, potentially aiding in muscle growth when taken before workouts.
Cold therapy only on days you're not going to the gym imo
Dr. Berg, the answer could be deep in one of the many videos you’ve got, but I can’t t find it. How long does the effects of autophagy last or continue for after breaking a fast? Is it only while fasting or does the process continue for a while?
Thanks for the video very informative. I have question how grams of creatine do I need a day a d do you recommend pill or powder. I am 63 years old I exercise 5 days a week I do cardio and weight lifting I also walk about 2 miles the days I am not in the gym.

Great topic.. thank you
Not a problem at all.
Dr.Eric Berg! Can you please recommend me a good creatine supplement? my goal right now is to loose weight and gain muscle at the same time, or would you recommend not to take creatine while I’m trying to loose weight and gain muscle?
Is there really no way to build muscles as a vegetarian?
Pain
Eggs and nuts
Depends how big you want to be.
The only benefit to eating meat over vegetables for muscle gain is that eating meat makes it easy to get enough protein. You really just need protein. So find a good vegan protein powder and you’ll be good 👍
why you make your life hard 😂😂
Wrong information about you "need" animal protein. That's straight up wrong. Proteins are made of amino acids which are different bricks to build a full rounded protein if all are put together. The reason why people say you "need" animal protein is because animal protein has great amino acid profiles which then we can see as a well rounded protein source. Since different plants have different amino acid profiles the logic conclusion is to put different proteinsources into one meal so you can balance out each plants amino acid deficits. For example lentils with sunflower seeds or beans with tofu. If you do this right there is no "low quality" protein source in plant based diets. Stop giving half cutted information I am building muscle on a plant based diet and there are many more who do it.
Hello Dr Berg. I'd like to know your thoughts on creatine side effects. Some research link creatine with hair loss. Is there any way one can prevent hair loss when taking creatine?
Dr berg thank you🙏
Welcome!
Asking this guy how to build muscle is like asking Lizzo how to lose weight.
The best coaches of tiny female gymnasts and muscular football players are fat old men. You don’t have to be a thing to know how to be it successfully, or follow a practice to know how to do it well. You can only gain muscle if you don’t train for it, and he doesn’t train
can you kindly recommend type of creatine
Good job dr that the video good timing make short videos u will c your channel grows fast

Hi Dr. Eric, great video as always, can I take my creatine in the morning before my workout if I am doing intermittent fasting?
Take with meal, it will break your fast at any other time.
