Tips for successful Workouts
Make a Plan
Successful workouts begin with a plan. Make a plan that is within your capability but challenging. Don't let failure be an option, but don't let a missed goal set you back either.
Mix it up
Mix up your workout routine to keep it fresh and create new challenges. The body adapts well to consistency. Variation in workouts keeps your body and mind fresh.
Focus on Quality
Hit the gym hard and focus on your goals. If you target muscle for the day is legs, focus on legs and don't mess around with other body parts. Get in, hit it hard, and get out to...
Recover Properly
Recovery is critical for building muscle. Make recovery part of your plan. Simply relaxing in the afternoon or before bed may not be enough. The right nutrition mixed with adequate rest may be more important that the right workout. Ok, maybe not more important, but the wrong nutrition and poor recover can wreck the results of any workout.
Remember, workouts should result in more overall energy. The energy you have throughout the day should be improved through exercise. If you are feeling sluggish because you are working out too hard -- it probably means you are working out too hard and not recovering sufficiently.
