give yourself the weekend off to enjoy. Remember you can easily make up and adjust your workout routine however you see it fit. Week 3 Intense workout routines that are concise and have a certain time limit encourage people to increase the number of days they are working out during week three. Because we’re not giving you an intensified short guide for a weight-loss quick fix, we’re not going to do that. Especially since this will only be your third week in the gym – ever. For week three, we’d like to introduce a different sort of exercise division. 2 days of the week, with one day of rest between each, focus on a total body workout. Usually day one and three work best for this. Day 2 and 4 are best reserved for individual focus routines for example; day 2 is all about the upper body while day 4 tackles lower body strength. Week 4 Week four is the week where you should think about increasing the intensity of your workout in order to build your overall strength. Because you’ve been consistent with your workout for over 3 weeks and your body is beginning to get into routine - adjusting to the movements you are putting it through, we would like to suggest that you slowly build up the intensity of your routine in order to increase your strength. Add to the reps, sets, or cycles you are doing for each exercise – even if it is just one more. Don’t introduce any new movement and don’t try any fancy new tricks in the gym just because you’ve been working out for almost a month and now consider yourself some sort of a pro - believe me you’re far from it now but you will get there in your own due time. There’s really no need to rush things.
Posture and Position Have you ever heard about someone who’s had a workout injury and have rendered themselves unable to exercise for life? We’re pretty sure you might have at some point or another because it’s that common an occurrence. Ever wondered why it happens, though? Allow us to enlighten you. Sports and exercise injuries are so common because of incorrect posture and positioning of the body while performing rigorous physical movements. Posture refers to the human body’s physical alignment with respect to the earth’s gravity. Essentially, the correct body posture is one that ensures that all the major landmarks of your body align in a straight line when viewed from the side.
