Strength Training
- Warm up with 5-10 minutes of light cardio to avoid injury. Warming up your body before exercises is a must.
- Start with all muscle groups 1-2 non-consecutive days a week.
- Choose one exercise for each muscle group and do 1 set of 10-16 repetitions of each exercise.
- Start with a machine and later with free weights.
- Give yourself at least a day of rest to recover(may be a day per week).
- Each session, add either 1 repetition and/or a few pounds of weight to each exercise to progress.
- Don't over-work. Its injurous. You've plenty of time to build your body.
- After 6 or more weeks of consistent strength training, you can change your routine to make it more hard. Stretch between sets and after your workout.
- Chest, Back, Shoulders, Calves, Abdominals, Quadraceps, Biceps, Triceps - one of these exercises can be chosen by beginner.
