Fitness Tip of The Day We bring Fitness to You
You don’t want to spend long hours at the gym, but you want to get stronger, fitter, leaner, and just plain look good. It’s possible that you’re not getting the most out of your workout time. The following Habits are what in our opinion set aside people who get great results from mediocre results. Implement these to experience success in your training regime.
Keep a training journal:
This is the number one factor in achieving success with your weight training program. How do you know how far you have come if you don’t know where you have started? A training journal allows you to record exactly what you do in the gym and helps you analyze what approach has given you the best results. If you do not record what you are doing in the gym, you have no right to worry about what supplements to take, or advanced methods to use. Get a training journal!
Follow the Plan:
A plan is of no use unless it is followed exactly as prescribed. If it is not followed, there is no way of truly knowing how much you are progressing and how successful the particular approach you are using is for you. You need to follow the following variables to do your program correctly:
- Sets
- Reps
- Tempo
- Rest
- Exercise choice and load
Sometimes in a crowded gym following the exercise choice and load may be challenging but sticking to the other variables is a key to success.
Emphasis on nutrition:
People who train correctly know that going to the gym is only half the battle. They put an equal and if not higher emphasis on the foods they eat on a day to day basis. They make sure that what they consume is supporting their efforts in the gym, not detracting from it.
All of the habits listed above will be successful each and every time. Implement these habits and get the real benefits that can be experienced from good training.
