An average person's search for the secrets to building muscle will mostly end up in vain, thanks to tons of misleading information in the fitness world! Internet is a great resource for information but the unfortunate thing about the Internet is that weeding out bogus news and fake information is almost impossible and people who are desperately looking for a way to gain body weight will get tired quickly! One of the main secrets to building muscle is following a healthy diet and improving your digestion, which can be easily achieved by the right workout techniques.
The tricky part here is choosing the workout techniques! Just open your favorite search engine homepage and search for muscle building exercises.
You will be surprised by the dissimilarity of information provided by various websites.
If one website is insisting you to use some sort of complex workout machine that will cost you several thousands of dollars, the second website will be completely against the same machine, stating that it's a wastage of money! You can also find the same issue with choosing a healthy diet plan as well because one supplement supported by a website will not be favored in another website.
According to Vince DelMonte, one of the most recognized fitness trainers in the world, complex equipment and expensive supplements are complete wastage of money but the real secrets to building muscle are revealed already, except that many of us ignore them.
His observation on workout techniques is quite interesting:

• Body Weight Training - DelMonte strongly disagrees with workout programs that constantly assure you supreme results just by using fitness equipment, especially for beginners.
  Body weight training is extremely hard and a known truth about muscle building is that many bodybuilding aspirants are on the lookout for a 'shortcut' and when a fitness trainer or club suggest them a 'shortcut' to build muscles quickly, they simply fall for that trap.
  Sadly, they will realize that there are no shortcuts to bodybuilding but only after wasting a lot of time and money.
  
• You need to include sets of 80 pushups, 25 chin-ups and 20 leg squats.
  There is no better way for you to challenge your body and by following this routine for just a month, you can notice significant improvement.
  Now, you probably will be wondering why these simple workout techniques are not suggested by many fitness experts.
  The reason is simple - these workouts are harder and do not include fancy equipment.
  Fitness clubs can't generate great profit by promoting such simple workouts and they simply ignore such simple workouts.
  

The real secrets to building muscle are not extremely hard to find and they are always around except that these workout methods do not get sufficient exposure.
Fitness industry is a billion-dollar industry and this profit comes from the selling of several nutritional supplements, steroids and fitness equipment.
There are not many fitness experts who want to sacrifice their profit and openly tell the world that a majority of these products are complete wastage of time and your hard-earned money.
If you find a no nonsense workout program that requires minimal equipment and lower investment, you can stick to it for a longer time.
A credible fitness program that do not want you to spend thousands of dollars or spend several hours in a gym but reveal the secrets to building muscle may be quite hard to find but such programs do exist!
