Bodybuilding Blunders - Part 1

Regardless of what tempo of weight lifting or exercise accessory we use, one must not forget the form. To demystify the right way to lift versus the wrong way, a group of bodybuilder trainers reported the following work out blunders:

Did You Know
To increasing fat burning capabilities and to tone at the same time while walking, running or performing any other activity with your legs, pull in your abs and squeeze your glutes to enhance muscle contraction and toning.


Bodybuilding Blunder: Not breathing. Even though it�s a prevalent faux pas to neglect inhalation and exhalation, breathing plays an integral role in weight lifting. During each lift, the blood pressure temporarily elevates; as a result, failure to breath makes the pressure rise. With the impetuous drop, the drastic fluctuation could cause the bodybuilder to pass out. Or even worse, for heart patients, it could trigger a stroke.


Bodybuilding fix: To quell the urge to hold your breath establish a breathing tempo during each repetition. The general rule is to exhale when the muscle is contracted and inhale at the release.

Did You Know
If you took a two-month hiatus from exercising, your muscle strength will be decreased by approximately 35 percent. Give yourself at least 4 to 6 weeks to get back up to speed and take it slow to prevent muscle tears and damage.

Short circuit. There is a tendency amongst weight trainers or body builders to stop short before the lift is completed. However, it is quite important to complete the exercise in its entirety for full range motion. Generally, the blunder is committed during bicep curls. The problem with performing a short circuited curl is that only a portion of the arm is getting the benefit of the exercise.

Did You Know
Exercising in intervals and alternating strength, cardio and aerobic routines is the most effective way to lose fat and gain muscle. To obtain optimal exercise results, muscle strength and fitness, you should mix aerobic training and strength training on a weekly basis.


Bodybuilding fix: To remedy the short circuit issue, perform each exercise in a controlled motion through the entirety. Take heed to completely contract the movement of each motion so that all the muscles will reap the strength building advantages.
