weight_lifting_clip_artAny time we try something new, we tend to dive-in and go all-out, fueled by the energy and excitement of starting a new adventure. The key is to focus your energy and determination with a beginners weightlifting program designed to meet your needs today and moving forward.

But before you get started, make sure you have these 3 tips covered so you don’t kill your beginners weightlifting program.

TIP ONE: Over Training and too Little Rest — the Program Killers

Rome wasn’t built in a day and in the same way, you need a program that will build you up step-by-step. Don’t worry, you can have that ripped look — everyone, without exception, goes through the beginners weightlifting phase. But if you try to get that ripped look in one day, you are destined for disaster. Similarly, if you don’t give your body time to rest and recover, you will burnout and run the risk of injury. Avoid these killers, make sure you have a solid beginners weightlifting program.

TIP TWO: Warm-up, Warm-down and Stretch — Keep those Injuries at Bay

These may not sound like the glamour parts of the workout, but they are critical. To often I see people new to lifting throw on as much weight at possible and max out a couple repetitions — not a good idea at all. Your muscles need to warm up. Also, as a beginner you should avoid ‘maxing’ out your lifts. Instead you should focus on,

  • Using the best possible technique
  • Following a well designed program
  • Building a strong foundation
  • Keeping a journal
  • Warm-up, warm-down, stretching and recovery time

Just as important as a warm-up is the warm-down and stretch. The best time to stretch is when your body is warmed up. Add a little extra time to the end of your workout so you can stretch.

TIP THREE: A Healthy Diet — The Right Food for a Healthy Body

Okay, you’re on the road to a ripped body, but you will never see your full potential without a Healthy diet. This topic is a whole book itself. I suggest you grab a copy of my free nutrition book. This will cover the information you will need in complete detail. The short answer is the classic food pyramid.
