Weight Training Tips
|
Your weight-training needs to done only three times a week. You could fit it on those days that you don't do aerobics - if you wish. Fatigue: If you experience extreme tiredness the next morning, it means you have overdone; your weight-training. So much so that your muscles are fatigued. At this stage, you may even feel a trifle feverish. Take a 48-hour (or longer) break. And decrease your reps during the next session. Shoulder-pain: Women, in particular could get stiffness or pain in the shoulders. In that case, concentrate on strengthening your shoulders by doing only the upper-back shoulder shrugs. Then, take up weight-training. Weight-training versus freehand exercises One thought may have crossed your mind. Why can't I do freehand exercises instead of weight-training? You can. Except that it will take you much longer to - for example - whittle down your waist. And with such slow results, you may give up on them! Also, you will have to spend much more time in a day to do your freehand exercises to feel exercised. Whereas, with weights, you need to spend only a few minutes per week, for quicker and more dramatic results. In addition, free hand exercising cal!s for a certain flexibility. We've watched overweight people - in particular- painfully doing their floor exercises. But we've carefully chosen exercises 'which don't require any flexibility. If anything, they give you a bonus - by making you more supple. Finally, since you can choose to do only the exercises that trim your problem spots, you need never feel exhausted. One last word: If you do get into weight-training, keep your dumbbells and ankle - weights handy. Stashing them away in your cupboard lowers your motivation if you are a laid-back exerciser. Keep them where you can see them. Besides, a neat pair of dumbbells lying' in your living room won't ruin your decor. In fact, they make excellent conversational ice-breakers as visitors are sure to notice and comment on them! About The Author: Read out for Weightlifting Check out beauty |
