7 Golden Rules To Get The Best Workout Every Time

And a good day to you. Today we bring you the 7 most amazing tips that you must use in each one of your workouts to get the  body you're after. So without wasting time, lets get started
  
Warm up properly. You’ve got to warm up before you hit the weights. Theres no other way around it. Not warming up can cause some pretty serious injuries. It also leads you to having a lousy first couple of sets. To get the best out of your session, spend 5-10 minutes warming up. Spend even more time if you are a little older. The older you are the more time you need to warm up. This will go a long way in keeping you injury free.

Make the mind to muscle connection. Before you start out on a muscle, really focus on it. Close your eyes for a quick 5-10 seconds. Focus on that muscle and make that connection. Keep the concentration going while you’re working the muscle. You’ll feel yourself working harder and also be able to lift more weight

Focus more on technique. Piling up on the weight can come later. You’ve got to make sure that you’re doing it right to remain injury free and truly get the benefits of the exercise. I’ve had a lot of people complain about an exercise not working the target muscle group hard enough, even when they’re lifting quite heavy. Its because they aren’t doing it right in the first place. And When I show them how its meant to be done, they painfully end up lowering their weight by quite a bit. So make sure you know how to do it properly. It is only then that you’ll see the results.

Get a spotter. Its those last few reps, the ones you cant do alone, that can really bring you the results you are looking for. Rather than quitting half way though them, don’t be afraid to ask an attendant or any other person for help. You’ll be surprised as to how friendly these people can be. They’ll even motivate you through those reps.

Stay hydrated. By the time you realize you’re thirsty its already too late. Keep having sips through out to keep yourself hydrated and avoid your workout coming to painful halt.

Stretch after a good workout. Not stretching can cause insane muscle soreness which can really put you off the quality workout you just did. It can also lead to you feeling miserable the next few days. Stretch after a workout to loosen up your muscles and maintain the flexibility. Stretch for at least 30 seconds for every muscle that you’ve worked.

Look Good. Get some really cool gym outfits. Its all about you being the super star when you’re at the gym. So wear something that makes you feel sexy. It may sound pretentious to you but Trust Me! It makes a difference when you feel like its all about you. You will work harder and be “in the zone” more than you would have been if you were there looking like a slob.

Now that we know em, for all your future workout sessions at the gym, keep these rules in mind. You are going to love what they will do for you.

Stay Fit
