Some good results as a consecuence of being aware of our health condition is to keep fitTips For Gym Beginners - Part 1 | |
A good gym
regime is spread over six days. Basically three days of weight training and
three days of cardio-vascular exercises. Let's construct a typical gym
schedule for a beginner or intermediate level of exercise.
|
|
Monday
|
- Chest, Shoulders and Triceps
|
Tuesday
|
- Cardio
|
Wednesday
|
- Legs
|
Thursday
|
- Cardio
|
Friday
|
- Back and Biceps
|
Saturday
|
- Light Cardio or Rest
|
Sundays
|
- Rest
|
One may
shift shoulders and triceps to Wednesday along with legs if chest workouts
take too long. Workout should be done typically for 50 minutes to 60 minutes
depending on one's energy levels. Cardio-vascular exercises can include 15-20
minutes each of using the treadmill, cross trainer, stepper, and cycle. Doing
weight training every day will not allow your muscles to relax.

Hence, a
one day gap (where you do cardio instead) is necessary to support your muscle
growth. This has been suggested by physical training experts too. The best
time to visit the gym is morning. But then finally it is up to you. Any time
is a good time to exercise. Make sure you eat / drink something before you
begin exercising. A banana or two is good enough. If you like to drink
protein shakes, make sure you drink the same after gym and not before.
|
|
If you are
a regular at the gym, you must be aware of the importance of warm-up and
cool-down during exercise. Actually these need not be restricted to the gym.
One should warm up before starting any exercise and do some cool-down
exercises too afterwards.
|
|
Make sure
you drink water at regular intervals in the gym. Some people prefer mixing
glucose based powders in their water bottles. Or some people drink sports
energy drinks like Gatorade. Some people prefer drinking lime or orange
flavored energy boosters. These drinks give you more of energy and help
keeping you hydrated during your workouts.
