Tips Regarding Weight Training Workouts

•  The beginners should not join gym at school because you are not noticed by any expert there. What you are lifting and how you are lifting is not observed by any one. So you have to do weight training workouts in school at your own risk.

•  If you are a starter than lift light weights and after understanding the strategies of weight training you can increase weight resistance. But always keep in mind that you have to add 5 pounds of extra weight but in the last set. The general rule of adding or increasing weights during lifts is to add when you are able to achieve 12 to 15 repetitions from your previous weight resistance.

•  Do not bother about the reps in beginning. If you are able to get the target reps than you can increase weights

•  Always try to lift less than your capacity in the beginning. It will help in gaining momentum for the development of your muscles.

•  If you are not able to get the reps you have target then remove the weight 10 to 15 pounds and then wait for some weeks until your muscles get strengthen to achieve those targeted reps

•  Complete your workout in a time span of 60 to 90 minutes. If you do workout for more than this time span than muscle fatigue can occur and the chances of injury increases.

•  Always take rest between two exercises. The rest time must not exceed than 3 minutes.

•  Allow your muscle to go through complete range of motion during exercises.

•  Doing workout is not only the part of a strength training program. A nutritive and balanced diet is also necessary simultaneously with weight training workout for the strengthening of muscles.
