The most common mistakes made at the gym!

You’ve been hitting the gym for the past month or so, but you’re the same weight as when you started? Well...you may be making some mistakes.

Don’t kick yourself...many people do these things:

  • You’re going too hard, too fast- Take. Your. Time.
  • Rushing through an exercise rather than focusing on form- Form is everything!
  • Resting for too long- “Taking long breaks between exercises or after each circuit is going to let your heart rate fall and you’ll miss out on the calorie-burning benefits of keeping it elevated,” explains personal trainer Erika Collins.
  • Doing hundreds of sit-ups for abs- Personal trainer Eric Bowling says, “You need overall fat loss and training combined.”
  • Not properly stretching or stretching at all- Start and end the workout with this.
  • Not tracking your workouts- “The only way to ensure those progressive overload gains is to track your workouts,” says personal trainer Amber Nash.
  • Doing cardio before weights- Eric explains, “Weight training when your energy supplies are low is likely to be less effective and more likely to result in injury.”
  • Not being courteous of other gym-goers- No one wants to touch your sweat! Wipe the equipment down when you’re finished.
  • Crowding the instructor- This will only complicate things. They need space.
  • Worrying about what other people think- That should be the least of your worries.
