Beginning a Strength Building
Program
Warming Up
To begin strength training, it is important to
stretch and perform light exercise for 5 to 10
minutes. This helps prepare the body for more
strenuous exercise by increasing circulation,
raising your body temperature and developing
more oxygen to your muscles.
Workout
Each workout to keep in mind that muscle
soreness that lasts for a long period in not
desirable and may mean that injury has occurred.
Cool Down
At the end of each workout, perform slow
stretching exercises for 5 to 10 minutes. Ease
into each stretch only going as far as you can.
This stage allows your muscles wind down after
training.
To provide a total workout program it is also
recommended that 2 to 3 days of aerobic exercise
is performed in addition to the strength training.
Drinking Water
For the body to function properly, it must be
properly hydrated. If you are exercising, you
should increase your fluid intake. The reason for
this is that the water you take in will leave your
system through the sweating mechanism that
cools your body during exercise. The water you
lose through exercise must be replaced so that
the muscles can recover properly.
Rest Day
Although you may not feel like doing it, taking
a rest day at least once a week is important
because it gives you body a chance to heal it self.
Continuously working your muscle will result in
over training which will not benefit in the long run.
