Believe it or not you can get bigger muscles by spending less time in the gym. Usually the more work you put into something the more you get out of it, for example to more you study the better your exam results will be.
So will this theory work for someone trying to build muscle and defeat their skinny genetics? The answer is simply NO. When it comes to building new muscle everything you thought was true needs to be thrown out the window.
You really can spend less time in the gym and get massive muscles.
To understand how it is possible to do less and get massive muscles, you need to take a look at the muscle-growth process from its roots.
Your body can respond automatically to a number of different things. If your hot your body sweats to cool itself down. If your cold you shiver and hairs stand on end to keep warm. These are basic processes which are completely automated.
So what happens in the gym when your body breaks down muscle tissue? How you you think it responds?
Yep you've guessed it, you get huge muscles.
When you pump more iron than your body is accustomed to handling, it is perceived as a threat to the existing musculature. Since the body thinks that something harmful is happening, the natural adaptive response is to make the muscles increase in size (hypertrophy) to protect you. If you continue to increase your workload from week to week, your body will get massive muscles because it will continue to adapt and grow.
Between works your body needs time for the muscles to heal. Its this healing process which causes growth of new muscle. If you train to often your body will not heal and you will not grow, instead you will just make your self ill as your body will have to adopt its defense tactics to stop you from training so often.
Give your muscles time to grow
Lots of bodybuilders especially beginners make the fatal mistake of thinking the more sets they do the bigger they will get. Don't fall into this trap if you want to get massive muscles.
I have for you 3 excellent tips for building and maintaining muscle mass. If you want to make the most out of your workouts you should be following these tips. 
1) Only train 3 days per week.
2) Train for a maximum of 60mins
3) Do 2-4 sets for the small muscle groups (calves, abs, shoulders, biceps, triceps) and 5-7 sets for large muscle groups (thighs, chest, back).
Be sure to take your sets to concentric muscular failure and then keep adding on weights or reps each week. Consistency is the key to muscle building success.
