Is "Muscle Pump" Important? (Does The Pump Build Muscle)

Everyone who trains with weights knows the feeling... you perform the first few sets of your workout and watch as your muscles become engorged with blood and begin feeling thicker, tighter and harder.

This is known as a "muscle pump", and it's a feeling that all lifters thrive on at the gym. But is muscle pump important? Does the pump build muscle?

Here's the reality...

Although getting a pump does feel amazing, it's simply the result of additional blood that has become trapped inside of the muscles, and it isn't something that you need to specifically strive for during your workouts.

No matter what style of workout you employ, you'll always end up getting a pump, but it isn't a limiting factor when it comes to stimulating muscle growth. After all, if it was true that "muscle pump equals muscle growth", then the best training strategy would simply be to grab a pair of 10 pound dumbbells and crank out sets of hundreds of reps on end. That would give you a huge muscle pump, but obviously wouldn't be ideal for maximizing hypertrophy.

The primary thing you need to focus on to gauge the success of your workouts is progressive overload, not muscle pump. In other words, as long a you're consistently adding more weight to the bar over time on all of your major lifts, you're on the right track regardless of how large or small your pump is.

So, does muscle pump matter? It likely does play a certain role in the muscle building process (though no one really knows what it is as this time), but again, it isn't a limiting factor that you need to specifically concern yourself with.
