1) Warm-up. Some may consider the quaint notion of warming up as being little more than an extended cliché. This is not completely accurate as even though warming up is oft repeated by many, it is repeated due to the extreme importance of warming up. When you rush into the gym and decide to crank out sets and reps, you will be making a huge mistake. A proper warm up leads to the increase of the body’s core temperature which opens the door for your metabolism to get into high gear. This also aids in lubricating the joints which is also incredibly important. Basically, you will be getting your body ready to get into top shape prior to lifting heavy, excess weight. A warm-up should consist of 5 to 10 minutes of middle of the road cardio intensity on a treadmill or stationary bike followed by 5 minutes of light stretching and consluded with 1 to 2 light sets prior to your “real” sets begin. 2) Stretch. Failure to stretch leads to a serious problem: your muscle bellies may shorten over a period of time and this will make you less flexible. A lack of flexibility will lead to a malformed appearance as well as scores of other common problems that are best avoided. When a supporting muscle stiffens or ends up becoming shortened, it may start interfering with the proper groove of your exercises. This may not prove problematic at first, but over time, training increasingly “wrong” will place a lot of extra stress on the joints, ligaments and even unintended secondary muscle groups. The cumulative effect of this over several years can greatly undermine your bodybuilding efforts. Stretching between your sets flushes out the presence of lactic acid and its byproducts while also bringing forth fresh nutrients. This makes you stronger for the next set you seek to perform. Then, the post-stretching will help you recover in a faster manner in between workouts. The bottom line here is when you stretch slowly and without any bouncing, for 30 seconds or more, you will reduce the potential for stress on your joints. 3) Control. Yes, there is a great deal of temptation with loading up on heavy weights and then cheating your way through the completion of the set. Controlled cheating may be a tried-and-true intensity boosting technique pro bodybuilders employ but one needs to avoid it in traditional workouts. Cheating should always be avoided until the end of a normal set so as to perform a few “bonus” reps. When you need to sway or use momentum at an early point in the set, you are using far too much weight. Another important aspect to control will center on avoiding bouncing, jerking or partial moves that are forced by necessity. That is, if you stop halfway down in the negative phase of a forearm curl exercise due to the fact you would not be able to curl up otherwise, you are using too much weight. 4) Strong Abs. The midsection is the core of the body and that is why it is also the stabilizer that holds all muscle groups together. When you lack a solid midsection, your ability to stabilize other lifts is in questions. Would you want to find yourself in such a scenario when performing an overhead press? Ab tension is a major key in making sure this exercise is performed safely. That is why so many people will work their abs as support to such heavy lifting. 5) Safety Precautions. People buckle their seat belts when they get into their car not because they expect an accident to happen. They do so just in case one occurs their injuries will be minimized. Take this attitude into the gym with you. You would not want to step on a calf machine only to discover problems with it that lead to an injury. Nor would you want to lift heavy weights on the bench press without a spotter. Again, safety should always be of paramount importance to anyone working out. None of these five steps can be considered rocket-science but they do definitely decrease the chances for a serious injury from occurring. As such, following such steps remains highly recommended.

Sally is ready to join the basketball team this year. You
encourage her, tell her to practice everyday, and even join in
on the team’s fundraising efforts. As adults we know the
positive health benefits that come with exercise and strength
training. These exact same benefits can be applied to children
as well.

Building a safe and effective weight training routine for Sally
is easier than one may think. The program should include the use
of light free weights, an exercise for each muscle group, and a
proper warm up and cool down. Let’s not forget the ultimate goal
of having fun!

Kids love to run and jump all over the place. Encourage that
playfulness while working on strength training programs as well.
Be sure to focus on proper form and technique and not on
physique or bulking up.

Children you have not yet gone through puberty should not even
consider adding lean muscle mass to their bodies. Save that goal
for a later date. Just let your children have fun and experience
strength training in a fun and positive environment.

Check with your doctor before starting any exercise program.
Before you know it, Sally will have better grades, better games,
better self-esteem and a healthier life. Remember you may be
Sally’s biggest role model.

Try this weight training routine and get as sculpted as possible and as soon as possible. To push your body to the next level, you have to change your weight training program and avoid getting stuck in the rut. Many people actually are in a plateau phase which they did not know of and in the end of the day, they would not get the sculpted body that they wanted because their muscles are just not responding to their weight training plan anymore.
For muscles to respond and get optimum results, they need to be exercised extra hard and kept on guessing. There for, for change, it is recommended that high intensity technique is applied once a while to give the muscle a shock.
One of the best ways to shock the muscle is by using this weight training routine, which uses a technique, called superset. Superset is a method where by 2 exercises for 2 opposing body part is done back to back without rest. Two exercises for one body part done back to back can also be used as a superset.
The purpose of using this technique is to actually keep the intensity high and to keep the heart rate high as well. For example, if we use a chest and back superset exercise, the back muscle is at rest while the chest muscle is worked. When its time to work the back muscle, the chest muscle is at rest and have time to recover and by the time the chest muscle is worked again, it would already recovered.
For superset with the same muscle group, the purpose is to really exhaust the muscle group and kick the stubborn muscle so that it will grow! A good example is to do a bench press followed by a chest dumbbell flyes. Chest dumbbell flyes is an isolation exercise and it will really compliment the bench press, which is a compound exercise. Again, this will keep your heart rate high in the fat burning mode and shock the muscle.
