Fitness Blunder
A lot of us workout to get a beautiful hot body, but are we
doing it the right way? Sometimes we
keep on exercising but nothing really happens, maybe this is because we're
doing it the wrong way. Have a fitness
instructor tell you how to do it, this way you won't be wasting your time exercising
and have no effect at all. Here are some
of mistakes that we usually do.
- No
matter how long you stay at the stationary bike or the treadmill if you're
leaning on the rails then you'll just damage your back muscle and only
half of your calorie is burned out.
How to fix it:
Straighten your back and push
yourself using your arms. If you need
the rails for balance then put the speed one notch lower.
- People
who uses momentum in lifting weights don't work on the target muscle
effectively, also a higher risk of getting strained because of poor
positioning.
How to fix it:
Control and slow your movement
while putting your body support fixed.
To continue good form you should lighten the load.
- Having
your knee go past your toe while you flex into a lunge. It could only pressure your knees
putting you in high risk for joint injury.
How to fix it:
Look at yourself at the mirror
while you're doing lunges and correct your position while you lower your body. The positioning will come naturally when
repeatedly done.
- In any
form of exercise, one shouldn't hold their breath most especially when
doing some lifting. As this can
limit the oxygen entering the brain causing you to faint.
How to fix
it:
Before lifting you should inhale,
and then exhale while lifting, then inhale again as you lower the weight. A tip, use a lighter weight if you're not
able to do this.
