Weeks 3-4: Step It Up Now it?s time to create a workout plan and use slightly heavier weights. You should begin to feel each workout ending with a bit of fatigue in the muscle adidas honey stripes low uomo , and soreness in the area trained for about 1-3 days afterwards. That?s your goal ? not ?pain?, but soreness. It?s a good sore, trust me. Here?s an ideal beginner?s workout. In fact, I can say with 100% certainty that this workout would do it for most intermediate trainers, as almost everyone is over trained rather than under trained. Again, you must have your thinking, goals and nutrition plan set. Beginner?s Workout Monday, or Day One: Chest and Back Begin with a 10-minute warm-up on a cardio device ? just enough to get the blood flowing. Follow this by light stretching of the entire body. Incline Dumbbell Presses, Palms In This is performed with your palms facing your head rather than turned out. This technique will go a long way to preventing rotator cuff (shoulder) injuries, especially in older trainees. I use it exclusively. Begin with the weights overhead, and lower slowly and controlled (again adidas stan smith bianche e verdi , please consult with a trainer for form and instructions, or look into a book called ?Keys To The Inner Universe? by Bill Pearl.) Lower the weight in about 4 seconds, and push it back up in 2. Start with a set of 12 repetitions, with the 12th rep being a little challenging. This is your warm-up. Do another set of 12 reps, but this time increase the weight a bit and make that last rep pretty hard. Do only ONE more set with more weight, and this time get 8 reps, with the 8th rep being very challenging, but not requiring assistance. Write the poundage down, then simply increase it the following week, or increase the number of reps. If you hit 15 reps for the first work set and 10 for the second, increase the weight for sure. Seated Cable Rows Using a cable row adidas superstar argento e bianche , common in every gym, repeat the same set and rep structure as above. Again, you are only performing two hard sets of one exercise per body part. This is all you need! Keep your back ?straight?, not bent, when doing cable rows. Picture something pulling your elbows backwards in your head as you contract and squeeze the back muscles. Really put your mind into it. Conclude your workout with 30-40 minutes of cardio. Work your way up to this, but eventually perform 40 minutes at 65-75% of your maximum heart rate, which is about 220 minus your age x .65 or .75. So, if you?re 50, this would be 220-50 = 170 x .75 (if you use 75%) for a target heart rate of about 125-130 (no need to be super-specific here.) This will really crank the fat-burning! Total Workout Time: Under 1 Hour Wednesday, or Day Two: Legs And Abs Begin with a 10-minute warm-up on a cardio device ? just enough to get the blood flowing. Follow this by light stretching of the entire body. Leg Presses While I recommend squats to anyone who will listen, for a beginner leg presses are usually the best bet. Leave squats for your third or fourth month. Using a leg press machine adidas superstar fiori di loto , you will do exactly the same as Monday rep and set-wise: a warm-up, followed by a hard set of 12 reps and a hard set of 8 reps. The key to the exercise again is to put your mind in your legs, not on lifting the weight. Feel the muscle contracting. Make sure your knees come down to your chest and that you do not ?lock out? at the top of the movement. Keep constant tension on the legs ? this makes a huge difference. Remember, two hard work sets ?that?s it. Leg Curls A leg curl machine can be found in any gym. Simply follow the same setrep pattern, and focus on keeping your hips flat on the bench. Swiss Ball Crunches You will do two sets of 10 reps on this ? or as many reps as you can do while not exceeding 10. If you can do more than 10 reps, you?re not concentrating enough on your abs. Lying on a swiss ball (one of those big rubber balls you see in the gym) with your back curved over the ball, place your feet underneath a stable object. An old trick is to use a heavy dumbbell or roll the ball over to something that has a gap to put your feet under. This keeps you stable on the ball. Then, raise up using your abs to pull ? not your legs. Think of squeezing your chest into your legs like an accordion ? that helps me when doing this exercise. Come up to about a normal sitting position and blow all your air out. Squeeze the muscles, then return back down very controlled. I cannot emphasize enough how much Clark Bartram?s Chisel Your Abs Success System could help you here, as ab work needs to be done precisely for results and for safety. Conclude your workout with 30-40 minutes of cardio as on day 1. Total Workout Time: Under 1 Hour Friday, or Day Three: Shoulders And Arms Begin with a 10-minute warm-up on a cardio device ? just enough to get the blood flowing. Follow this by light stretching of the entire body. Machine Military Press Find a military press machine. Again adidas superstar bianche e leopardate , these are common in the gym. We?ll do something a bit different here ? we?ll be doing only one work set after a few warm-ups, but it will be composed of several sets in one. These are called drop sets. This is usually an advanced technique, but we?ll be taking it a bit easy. You will not be training to the point of failure ? just shy of it. Start with a weight you can do 12 reps with fairly easily. Rest 10 seconds. Drop the weight down and get another set of 10-12. This will start to burn a bit, but that?s okay. Rest another 10 seconds, and drop the weight one more time (usually a drop is about 10-20 pounds.) Just get as many reps as you can on the last set. That?s it ? you?re done with shoulders in under 2 minutes. Bicep Curls With Dumbbells Perform only two working sets of 10 reps each. Start with the dumbbells as your side and curl both weights upward at the same time. The key is to focus on the bicep squeezing, not on heaving the weight up. Tricep Pushdowns Same method as biceps;U.
