Weight Lifting Techniques and Weight Training Programs

By Wakelin Smith


Weight lifting is a power training activity which many people participate in for the purpose of building, strengthening and increasing muscle mass and also for the purpose of losing weight. Before attempting to lift weights, here are some helpful tips that can help you to achieve weight lifting success.

First and foremost, one of the key principles you'll need to master is what the appropriate weight amount you should be lifting. Know that, if you are not comfortable lifting a weight at least 15 times, you probably have the wrong weight. The best thing you can do is take it slow, lifting a single set of 15 repetitions making sure your weight amount is correct. This will go along way towards you building up strength in a fast and effect manner. If you start out lifting the incorrect weight amount, you will only wind up hurting yourself.

Skipping warm ups is one common mistake made by weight lifters, both beginners and experienced lifters make this mistake. Ten minute warm- ups of stretching or any form of aerobic activity should be done before attempting to lift weights. Warm ups help to decrease the risk of injuries and should not be left off.

Proper form is essential when practicing the correct weight lifting methods. The amount of weights that you use when performing weight lifting techniques should not be to light nor should it be too heavy.

It is normal to feel a dull ache after weight lifting, but you should not experience any other forms of pain. If you experience any pain, perhaps it is because you are overworking your muscles, or not maintaining a proper form. Whatever the case, you should discontinue lifting and return to it a few days later and then try decreasing the amount of weights you are using.

Rest is a part of the sport. Practicing at the correct weight with good technique and proper form requires that you give your body a chance to rest. Weight lifting is vigorous, and you don't want to overwork muscles by doing the same thing every day. It is essential that you give your muscles a chance to rest. Vary your routine and work on different muscles for the best result.

Regular breathing is very important during weight lifting. Holding in your breath during lifting can result in your blood pressure increasing to levels that can be harmful to you and your body. Breathe out as you are lifting weights and breathe in as you are bringing the weights down.

Practicing all these techniques is a way to pick up a sport and build muscle. If you work out everyday and you aren't seeing the desired results, you may need to consider your workout strategy. It might not be correct. Avoid overdoing anything and get plenty of rest as you learn. Remember not to work if you're in pain and always lift the correct amount of weight with the correct number of repetitions for maximum results.
