10 most common
mistakes in fitness that do not let you progress
With all those
fitness magazines and websites it's easy to get confused with all the tips that
leave us. However most practitioners agree that the 10 most common fitness
errors are virtually universal. If you feel guilty of any of them then start to
change so that you can see improvements.
You do not drink enough water
Drinking water
is the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health and with that many
people still ignore the importance of drinking water.
Drinking enough
water may seem difficult, but if you always carry a full bottle with you, it
will be easier to stay hydrated throughout the day.
You forget about stretching
You're not doing
your body any good when you forget to stretch. Stretching increases the flow of
your blood and oxygen to the muscles being stretched which helps prevent
injury. At least take about 5 minutes to stretch 5 minutes before starting your
routine. Especially those muscles that you will
be working.
You forget to change or rotate your workouts
Your body adapts
to the physical stress to which it is subjected, and adapts faster than you
think. This is one of the most committed mistakes in the fitness world. It is
normal to see how a person relentlessly repeats the same routines week after
week and then complains about not seeing results.
If you want to
keep your body in constant evolution, whether to gain muscle mass or lose
weight then you should change your routine frequently. That if if you are less
rookie you have to change your routine:
♦
If you are beginners change it every 12 weeks
♦
If you are at an intermediate level every 6 to 8 weeks
♦
And if you are a more advanced level you must change
it every month.
♦
You make too many abs
You have to know
that your abdominal area is formed by a set of 4 muscles that must be worked.
But if your diet is not appropriate then you will be able to fat that cover
your abs.
You should train
them like any other muscle. Exercising for the abdominal area 2 times a week is
more than enough. If for your arms you do not do 100 repetitions when you train
them then why do you do it for your abs?
If you really
want to see the so-called squares then the change must be in your diet. You
should avoid eating more calories than you need, and in turn you should
incorporate strength training and cardio vascular exercise.
You become obsessed with a part of the body
You may not like
your arms or suddenly it is your legs that do not look very good in front of
the mirror, but that does not mean that you must work them every day so that you
can be satisfied. The worst mistake you can make when training is to avoid
other muscle groups because you think or think you should not work them or
simply because you do not like to train them. Neglecting other parts of the
body later will be worse. It is best that you train all muscle groups with the
same regularity and intensity.
