How to Get Fit at the Gym

There are millions of people who go to gyms throughout the world. Some people know how to work out effectively while others have no idea. Go to your local gym and notice how many people are yawning while on the treadmill or cycling machine. There are also people who are resting for long periods of time on weight machines. This is not the way to go if you ever want to get fit.


1. Make a schedule that can get you at least 3 or 4 session in the gym every week. There are so many things we have to do throughout our busy day but if you want to start getting fit you will have to find some time.

2. Make sure you stretch before you start using any machine or pick up any weight. Stretching will get your body warm and reduce any injuries or pulls.

3. Try and drink a good portion of fluid. Either water or an energy to help you stay energized during your workout. Check out this leak-proof flip top Infuser water bottle (25 Oz) by InfuseFruit at Amazon.com

4. Focus on working out when you are at the gym. There are so many people who are watching television or day dreaming. You will gain more from doing one set of reps with complete focus instead of 10 sets while watching the local news.

5. When working on weight lifting, make sure you are getting every body part a proper workout. That is legs, arms, chest, stomach, etc. Your entire body should feel the burn when you are done. Not just the legs (mostly women) or arms and chest (mostly men).

6. Do slow lifts when you are lifting weights. The slower the better. This will actually cause your muscles to really work for every single rep. You will be surprised how much harder it is to do. Check Out These Weight Lifting Gloves With Wrist Support For Gym Workout, Crossfit, Weightlifting, Fitness & Cross Training.

7. Make sure you take a shower before and after you go to the gym. You want to take one before because smelly toxins accumulate on your skin which can release from working out. And after because, well, you don't want to look or smell like a sweaty Ogre.
