Starting Off
As a beginner it is important for your body to get used to being in the gym as it can be difficult to get habituated to a new schedule. For every person, the body reacts differently to the early stages of workout so it is important that you start off with the correct exercises. If the workouts are random and with bad form, chances are you will end up with an injury and dropping the gym altogether. To ensure you’re on track to achieve your fitness goals efficiently and effectively with the correct form and posture, Revive Leisure Park offers personal trainers for our clients to assist them.
There are many types of workouts that can be done but as a beginner, You must begin with full body workouts because working only one group of muscles can greatly fatigue the body very quickly, and can also cause injury and severe sore muscles. But first you should know what your goal is, whether it is to lose fat or gain muscle.
Why is having a fitness goal important for you?
It is important to have a fitness goal as it helps you keep track of your fitness journey. It is also important to take a picture of yourself to visualize your progress from time to time. Most people who’ve embarked on a fitness goal and were successful in reaching their goals wished they had taken a picture of their journey since the beginning.
There are many types of fitness goals such as going for aesthetics, becoming a powerlifter, training for calisthenics/flexibility etc, but in general most people are keen on being fit. So as a beginner, it’s important not to immediately dive into different types or workout plans, rather having a consistent schedule is the ideal.
How to begin weight training as a beginner?
A beginner should start with compound exercises that target multiple muscle groups. These include exercises like squats, push-ups, and sit-ups. You can begin with 2-3 sets of 10-12 repetitions for each exercise. Remember though, it is important to perform some light warmup exercises before any heavy lifting exercises to prevent injury.
Treadmills, ellipticals, and bikes are a good way of warming up, most people tend to stick to cardio machines and equipments as it is a familiar way of working out, cardio is a great way of training the heart and the lungs, but to get the body into a good shape, you must start strength training/weight training, Your training shouldn’t only consist of cardio.
Strength training has a lot of benefits for you, It is one of the most commonly known terms in the fitness industry. Strength training boosts the body’s metabolism rate, which leads to more calories burned. Even after your workout is finished, Your body keeps on burning more calories due to something called, “Excess Post exercise Oxygen Consumption”, i.e EPOC. So the more time you spend on having an intense workout, the longer it takes your body to recover and return to its original state. This leads to more calories burned even after leaving the Gym/fitness center.
Strength training also makes it easier for you to improve daily activities. It helps create a balance in your everyday life, it helps with your posture, Flexibility, Better mood throughout the day, lowering the stress and overall enhances your quality of life.
How much time should you spend in the Gym? It can range from anywhere from 30 mins to 1 and a half hours, the best would be to spend around 45 mins in the Gym, including the warmups, workout and cool down/stretching at the end of the workout.
Few things to remember
Besides working out, your diet also plays a huge role in achieving your fitness goals. There’s a well-known saying in the fitness and health world that goes something like this: “Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym.” While exercise is important for building strength, endurance and overall fitness, what you eat has a significant impact on how your body appears, functions and recovers. To gain weight, you will need to consume more calories than your body can burn. This concept is termed as a “caloric surplus’ in the fitness world. Similarly, a caloric deficit is when you burn more calories than you consume in order to lose weight.
Moreover, extreme deficits or surpluses can have adverse effects on health, so it’s essential to approach weight management in a sustainable and healthy way. The key takeaway is that an overall healthy and balanced diet is necessary to maintain a healthy body with the right amount of nutrients like proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, etc.
