So, you’re looking to completely max out your workout results? You’d like to get fit and toned, but you’re unsure whether you should follow the most popular fitness trends as the best way to lose weight quickly?
Whichever workout routine you choose to dedicate your time to, be it a “classic” gym, or a Little Italy fitness club, there are ways in which you can maximize your workout gains. Let’s see what they are.
Working out on a regular basis, as the San Diego Institute for Public Health states, is something all of us should try to do. But, sometimes, exercising doesn’t yield expected results. Perhaps you’re doing something wrong? Don’t worry, we’ll give you some advice on how to maximize your workout routine.
The more time you spend at the gym the better? Not really. You’ll get maximum benefits after thirty or forty minutes, with high intensity. Any more than that – the intensity lowers, and the gains decrease.
If you’re a beginner, or if you’re just trying out a new exercise, by all means, take it slow. In all other instances, try to do every exercise with as much intensity as you can, in order to boost effectiveness.
Your muscles need protein in order to grow and rebuild, and modifying your diet to increase protein intake can be just as important as working out.
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! However, never drink plenty of water right before exercising. Not only will you feel uneasy, but the body also needs some time to absorb all the water, making it ineffective to drink a lot at once.
Your body needs fuel, and contrary to popular belief, carbs are not the enemy, but a great source of energy. Bananas are a great choice, just don’t overdo it.
Stretch your entire body well before and after working out. This will prepare your body for the session, but also loose all the muscles after it, making the entire effort easier and more fruitful.
Or rather lack of it is important for a good workout session. Don’t just rush through the lift, take it slowly. This maximizes the effectiveness of the weight lifting greatly, especially when the motions are correct.
Again, in the beginning, stick to low weights. But, as your form increases, so should the weight. The more weight you lift, while keeping the form good, the more you will gain from every rep.
Many people make the mistake of doing multiple sets with lower weights. Instead, take on greater weights, and perform single sets to failure, with proper form.
Don’t separate your exercises per muscle group. Do exercises that target multiple muscle groups simultaneously. This way, you’ll get a full-body workout more quickly.
When you stick with the same workout routine for too long, your body will adjust to it and the gain will keep on decreasing. By mixing it up, you’re always keeping your body on its toes.
Never skip cardio. But, we’re not talking about just that. Do cardio that you’ll enjoy doing. So, if you don’t like running, go swimming and that’s it!
Finally, if your cardio of choice is walking, running, or biking, be sure to incorporate hills, as doing these kinds of cardio only on level ground is much less effective.
Rather than giving you some more advice on how to get more out of your every gym visit, we’re going to point out some common mistakes all of us have made when frequenting the gym, only so you don’t have to repeat them.
