So many people these days are struggling to get in shape. Some want to get in shape but say it’s to difficult and give up before they even start and others put the effort into improving themselves and fail to see results. Set backs like these can be highly discouraging and increase the time it takes you to get the body of your dreams. We are all human and therefore we all make mistakes but being able to avoid mistakes to begin with is something none of us have a problem with. Here are a few mistakes you might be making that could be holding you back.

1. Bad form- Don’t be a victim of bad form, make sure when you do an exercise you do it properly otherwise it will go to waste. To many people I have seen fail to follow through with their exercises properly. Going only half way through the motions or using other muscles to assist the primary muscle during the exercise like swinging your arms when doing curls are signs or bad form(Tip: If you have bad form it may be caused by too much weight or to many reps.)
2. Not Stretching – Stretching is easily bypassed by a lot of us, but did you know stretching improves blood flow to your arms reducing chance of injury, promoting faster recovery, and increasing your gains from working out. So never pass up stretching just so you can get into your work out quicker.
3. Neglecting Protein- So you’ve started working out, that’s great and all but without proper nutrition you will fail to see results from your efforts. Without enough protein your muscles will suffer. On average your daily intake should be around 50-100 grams a day, 100 or more being for people interested in putting on serious muscle.
4. Avoid the Plateau- This one I see all the time and is rarely corrected by the people who have fallen into one. What is a plateau? a plateau is the point you reach when your workouts no longer produce any results for you. These are caused by people doing the same work out every time they exercise. To avoid these and continue to gain results all you have to do is change up your routines and do different exercises.

There are very few people who don’t like to swim these days and who can blame them? Swimming is as fun as it is a workout. So many swimmers don’t even realize that they were getting a full body workout when they were swimming. Swimming is low impact on your joints which is great for people who suffer from arthritis or those who have joint or back pains. Besides just swimming for fun there are actually great and effective exercises you could do while in the water to target your whole body.
