The theory of using electrical currents to contract your muscles and 'work them out' has been tested. From what I heard, it's far less efficient than a normal work out. Basically, to work any part of your body out, you have to put up some resistance to keep it up to top strength. This includes your heart and cartilage [donating blood forces your cartilage to work to reproduce it] as well as bones and muscles. So, the best way is to just work out for a few minutes a day.

However, there are a few simple exercises that you can use on a daily basis to earn muscle:
  • while at home, walk on your toes to build buff calf's
  • if you are sitting down, press your knees together and hold for as long as your can
  • if you are sitting in a desk with the chair attached, push on the desk as hard as you can for built arms
  • if you can, lean back in your chair until you can feel it in your abs and hold it there
  • hold up your body with your arms while sitting down for a long time to build you arms
  • if you're sitting at a desk, stand on your toes and push up on the desk with your knees. be sure to hold the desk down! (this exercise only works with shorter desks, or ones a little higher than your knee)
  • if none of these work, you can also try just squeezing any muscle for a long period of time, that'll work too!

The only way to build muscle is the hard way and that means lifting heavy weights 3 times a week and eating a lot of protein foods and taking protein powder in a glass of milk with your meals.

You can build muscle by working out parts of your body like lift weights or use any kind of resistance that causes tension in your muscles and you loose muscle if you don't eat enough because your muscles need calories to burn and you also lose muscle when you go a real long time without working out.But it's not tension that builds muscle, it's OVERLOAD.

If you not sore after a workout, your not going to gain muscle. When you lift, what you are doing is making tiny rips in your muscle, your body recovers by building new muscle to avoid it again. So if your muscles arent sore, your not going to gain any muscle.
