Common Workout Mistakes |
|
|
Now that the fall is upon us, most gym goers are kicking their workout programs into high gear to get back to the grind and shape up before the fattening holiday season. Here are some common mistakes most gym rats make that will hinder their progress, and the easy solutions to keep them on the right track for the perfect beach body for next season.
NO WEIGHTS - Most people shy away from the weights in favor of cardiovascular activity under the assumption that weight training does not help you lose weight. The truth is weight training is actually more effective than cardiovascular training due to the fact that it helps increase one's muscle mass therefore increasing their body's metabolism and helping them to burn more body-fat.
CARDIO BEFORE WEIGHTS - Performing a cardiovascular workout before a weight training workout decreases a persons strength levels therefore causing one to lose muscle mass. If your goal is to have a toned body, do weight training first and cardio afterwards. This will not only help you maintain your lean body mass but also helps you burn more fat. Please do make sure that you warm up before your weight training to help maximize your workout and to prevent injuries.
DOING TOO MUCH - Too many people spend too much time in the gym. They take a group fitness class; do some strength training and then some cardio. Although the effort is respectable, the results are undesirable. This much activity puts your body in survival mode. This is when your body uses muscle tissue as fuel instead of body-fat. Which ends up defeating the purpose.
If these common mistakes sound familiar to your personal workout program, make a few of the adjustments mentioned above and you will see better results this fall. If you need help, don't forget, most of you still have your complimentary sessions with a trainer available, book them today!
