Beginners guide to weightlifting part 6 (LAST PART)

Just a few thought to support your goals...

Do you remember the “No pain no gain” quote? I absolutely hate that quote because for somebody new to training “Go hard or go home” attitude it’s completely unnecessary!

ITS NOT GOING AT ALL, THAT IS A PROBLEM!

Quotes like this can be very influencing so ignore them and be YOU!

Every day will be different and sometime “You have to go slow in order to go fast.” Slowing down brings you more focus and presence!

Weight training session lasts only about 1h at the gym, the other 23 hours are important too!

Combine your weightlifting with nutritionally balanced diet and any activity you can do: Gardening, walking, swimming, cleaning or running after your kids. Any activity is good if your feet are moving!

Don’t compare yourself with others at the gym, you are beginner and your priority is to learn how to perform your workout with correct posture first!

Don’t restrict food groups. Eat your carbs, fats and Protein. You are not going to compete in bodybuilding competition you just want to look good in your clothes.

If you are trying to lose weight consider eating more protein than you did before to maintain your current muscles and help you with recovery. Fats and carbs will give you strength, energy and better mood. Eat lots vegetables and fruit.

❌DON’T Restrict, restricting for to long means binge eating at some point of your journey which will slow down your progress.❌

Find time to relax and gain more knowledge to achieve your goals.

Diet industry is full of confusing advice.Be careful who you follow on social media. Especially celebrities or anyone who is selling "Weight loss" supplements. I hope you will find your own balance with the focus on improving yourself! Scale or non-scale victory, they all count. Good luck!
