If you&#8217;re a total beginner, then this article is for you! If you have already started your training regimen this might be a little too simple for you, but keep reading you never know when you might pick up a tip or two.\u00a0I am going to tell you the simple and basic guidelines and rules for starting out in a weightlifting program; no matter if it&#8217;s\u00a0for strength, weight loss, or just overall fitness this article can help you figure things out and\u00a0really make the most of your new journey into being fit and healthy.<\/p>\n<p>First, let&#8217;s talk about some things that you\u00a0<strong>don&#8217;t\u00a0<\/strong>want to do:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Using too much weight, too soon &#8211; this is a great way to injure yourself and ruin your fitness plan before you even get started. Pick a reasonable weight to start with,\u00a0but if you can perform 30 reps with a certain weight, you probably should bump up the weight a little bit at a time.<\/li>\n<li>Moving through repetitions too quickly, going too fast; because remember, there is nothing gained by lifting weights too fast. You should always\u00a0lift weights in a slow and controlled manner. It&#8217;s better for the muscles, it increases tension and lessens the likely hood of having an accident and injuring yourself.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now that we have a couple of the &#8220;don&#8217;ts&#8221; out of the way, let&#8217;s get to the &#8220;do&#8217;s&#8221;:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You don&#8217;t need to weight train every day to get healthy. Significant strength\u00a0and fitness progress\u00a0can be obtained obtained with only two workouts per week. Of course, it would be a great idea to get in some cardio exercises a couple of days per week, also. Don&#8217;t forget to also take a couple of days per week to rest, as well.<\/li>\n<li>Take one day off from weight training between each workout. The days in between are the days that you should be getting in your cardio workouts.<\/li>\n<li>For the best results, at least one set of 8-12 repetitions should be performed<\/li>\n<li>It should take four to five seconds to complete one repetition through a complete range of motion; in a slow and very controlled manner.<\/li>\n<li>Rest at least 30 seconds and no more than 90 seconds between sets of each exercise; and 1 to 2 minutes between each exercise.<\/li>\n<li>Stay hydrated! There&#8217;s nothing worse than getting dehydrated and having to stop training for the day. Be sure to drink at least the minimum recommended 8-10 glasses of water each and every day; dehydration can make you weak,\u00a0have headaches, and if it&#8217;s an ongoing problem it can even make you sick.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now that you have some work out tips, how about checking out DealDash to see what kinds of weight training equipment they have for auction?
