Begginers guide in the gym

in #gym7 years ago

If you are a newbie in the gym so maybe you don't know what to do first. It's critical to know the small details because with them you will achieve the goal that you are wishing. Well... except if you are lazy and don't have the will to get off the couch but that isn't my business. I'm just here to help save some time and avoid the mistakes that I have done.

1) Recovery

Yes, we all (most of us) have seen Rocky. He was sweating like hell and working out every day and every hour. But is this the case for a desired body. Yes and No. Yes if you wan' t to get lean and loose the belly fat but No if you want to build muscle. Many don't know that muscle building process is when you are resting after you workout in the gym. Even when you are sleeping. So don't rush to the gym every day. My advice is to go to the gym 3-4 times a week. Also don't forget about the carbs. Our body needs them after our workout because it's like a fuel for a car - without it we're going nowhere.

2) More weights!

As you might have heard you should choose the weights that are suitable for you. Don't try to show off. But on the other side the weights should progress because in short your muscles grow when we give the more stress. But if you use the same weights that get used to them and that is the end - you are just wasting your time. The best trick for me is my diary. I use it to write my last workout weights that I used, So therefore I would always pick up a little more heavier ones.

3)Reps, exercises, sets.

First of all I'm gong to talk about exercises. When you go to the gym you see a huge variety of different machines. But the main thing that people do wrong is use all of them without the knowing what they do. So in short the main tip to get all the girls (it's just a joke meaning to build muscle to get all the girls) is to use free weights, for example dumbbells. Using them our body uses more muscles than compared to other gym machines so therefore you put more stress on you body. The second part is repetitions. The ideal range is from 6 to 12. What is more it's for stamina building and pumping up and what is less is for power (powerlifters). Sets are from 3 to 4. You should choose witch is more appropriate for you.


You see, there are a lot of books written about sports, gym and so on. So it is difficult to write it all in just one post. But if you have any questions, saw any my written mistakes please write in the comments. I would be glad to give you tips and accept the criticism that you have. And no, I'm not that kind if "pay me 10$ and I will give you a gym routine that using it you will get fit" and so on.  Because there's no such thing. Everyone is different so there are no universal workout routines. So the only thing that I could help you to give the knowledge to make your own workout routine yourself

I hope that I may have helped someone.

If so then I'm glad and see you soon :))
