Mistakes… Not stretching before and after lifting weights. Not hydrating enough or at all. When injured, you must heal first before continuing. Which leads me to my next point.. Not cycling out days for things like back/biceps, chest/triceps and legs/bum and core training. Not rolling sore areas (or just plain not rolling too) rolling is great for muscle building because it helps with blood circulation. Poor nutrition/ starving ones self while expecting gains.. Nutrition tip.. Magnesium helps with recovery and DHA is also great for muscle growth. Theres a lot I don’t know but thats some stuff I do.. 🤙🏽
Most common mistakes; 1- Poor technique resulting in no benefit from the exercise. 2- Using too much weight. 3-Only focus on few exercises and not on the rest of the body. 4- Not focusing on other exercises like cardio, flexibility and mobility.
As a health teacher at an High School, I noticed that students do not know how to lift properly, even after watching videos on weight lifting safety tips. Students do not apply what they have learn to get better. They want to do what they want to do, and not follow instructions given. FYI. Sincerely, The High School Health Teacher.
Thanks I’ve been doing everything correct like you said, besides incorporating cardio on my rest days. I started slow with 10 lb dumbbells then went to 15 now I’m on 20 and I’m seeing results and I’m having fun with it . V
But you don't need any mobility or flexibility training if you are just moving enough daily and the only thing stretching makes you better at is stretching. Although cardio is necessary but I completely disagree with stretching and mobility training...you don't need it if you are active enough.
2 questions. Can you lift weights and not get all ripped. I am in my late 60 and my arms are turning to jelly. Questions 2. I was watching a video of MTG try to do so excessive lifts weird pull up looking like a plucked chicken and push ups with her arms tight into the side of her body. I was taught by my brothers wrestling and football and track. The way she does them looks extremely dangerous to me. But I was told it called cross fit. I see shoulder & back surgery in her future. What do you think about her style.

One of the most common mistakes is lifting too heavy too quickly at beginner level
I agree.
My first thoughts
This is soooo true omg.
What weight should you start with?
@@ari..1512I’d say for women 5-10 pounds and for men 15-20?

Proper lifting technique for each exercise is very important. Thanks!
Loved it, crysp and clear ❤
Move up gradually, 100% agreed. And its ok to stay at the same weight until ur comfortable moving up. Its ok to decrease weight too.

Agreed and the problem is that most people out there are not active enough.

Yeah people forget to workout their wrists and forearms
hi
Does walking count as cardio and stretching count As flexibility training?
Yes
Too much weight and too many reps too soon
Great comment.. similar too mine 100%
Is 20lb and 5 reps of 10 bad for a starter?
