Tips to help out 💪

Start slowly: Since people are generally very motivated when they start working out, the tendency is to overdo it. Training too much or too hard might feel good at first, but this will drain your body of energy pretty quickly. The result is a drop in performance, which will affect your motivation and make your workouts less fun.

Set goals: When you set a goal for yourself, it helps to have a specific target in mind. It might be a race, but it could also be feeling better in your body before your next vacation. The important thing is to also plan medium term goals. These will motivate you along the way and you can keep an eye on your current fitness level.

Workout regularly and continusly: There’s one question you should ask yourself right at the start: how much time and energy do you want to invest in your training? Your success will depend on the answer. Make a realistic plan for the scope of your program.

Use the right technique: Fast, hard, and frequent — these are the words often used to describe what people imagine to be the perfect workout. But if you have poor form when you do the exercises, you can injure a muscle instead of strengthening

Heart rate goes up, you’re breathing a lot, let’s find out why that is.
⠀
📍Leg muscles are generally bigger than upper body muscles
This means that there will be more blood having to travel to those larger muscles in greater volumes.
⠀
📍Oxygen travels in blood farther away from heart increasing the heart rate and stroke volume (amount of blood pumped out by heart in one contraction)
The working muscles of the legs are requiring oxygen because oxygen is being used up to a greater degree.
⠀
📍Respiratory Pump
Your blood doesn’t just simply travel back up to the heart super easily. You have mechanisms in your body that help transport that blood back to the heart and replenish your oxygen quicker. Your diaphragm muscle helps actually squeeze that blood upward back to the heart. This causes you to breath more frequently and also take deeper breaths. Along with getting more blood back to the heart, this blood also travel to the lungs to pick up more oxygen and get rid of the carbon dioxide that was picked up from the muscles. This means you will need to breath more to get rid of the CO2 and get more O2 into your body.
⠀
📍In comparison to your upper body workouts, the oxygen demand during your upper body workout isn’t as great because muscles are generally smaller and O2 in the blood doesn’t have to travel too far from the heart. Blood is more easily able to replenish its oxygen without having to increase heart rate and stroke volume as much.
⠀
Hope this gave you some insight on how your body reacts when exercising.

The triceps consists of three heads: the medial, the long and the lateral head. ⠀
⠀
To get the horseshoe look, you should incorporate exercises into your workout plan that hits all three heads.⠀
⠀
Since all three triceps heads pass over the elbow joint, all three heads are also strongly activated during any extension of the arm. However, you can focus on each head in particular by varying the position of your upper arm and by your grip...⠀
⠀
THE LONG HEAD✅⠀
This is especially important for the horseshoe look. For optimal growth in the long head, any exercises where your arms are above your head (e.g. French press, tricep press overhead, etc.) are suitable. Additionally, cable kickbacks with your arm behind your body can make sense, as the long head reaches full contraction (peak contraction) during this exercise.
⠀
THE LATERAL HEAD✅
For optimal growth in the lateral head, any exercises where your arms are at the side of your body (e.g. dips, tricep presses on the cable pulley, etc.) are suitable.⠀
⠀
THE MEDIAL HEAD✅
To achieve optimal growth in the medial head, any exercises where your arms are at the sides of your body are suitable. To specifically target the medial head, it can make sense to choose an underhand grip when doing triceps presses.
⠀
The triceps accumulates overlap volume during any push exercise (e.g. bench press or shoulder press). For your triceps to grow optimally, you need to correctly assess your overlap volume and distribute the remaining volume to isolation exercises that hit all three triceps heads in the best possible way.

🚴Athletic vs Aesthetic💪

There are different things you should be doing depending on your fitness goals, there isnt a one size fits all so your training will be different depending on your goals.

Athletic training is primarily done by athletes and focuses on building whole body power. This means that the focus is not only the weight, but also the speed of the movement.

This is different to the bodybuilding and strength training done more commonly by gym goers.

What style do you mainly train in? Let me know in the comments.

🔵Best Lower Body Exercises
-
👉The lower body is made up of four main muscle groups: Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Glutes, and Calves. Here are the best exercises for each muscle based on muscle activation levels, overloading ability, accessibility, and overall muscle stress the exercise places on the muscle.
-
Quadriceps: Squats (Back or Front)
Hamstrings: Conventional Deadlift
Glutes: Hip Thrust
Calves: Standing Calf Raise
-
Each of these exercises should be included in your lower body training plan for optimal development.
-
For primarily strength gain, 3-4 sets of 3-6 reps mostly will work well. For primarily muscle gain, 3-5 sets of 8-15 reps will be good.

How to breathe when doing push-ups
-
Correct breathing when working out requires you to exhale during the highest exertion. When doing push-ups, you inhale as you lower your body and exhale as you push back up.
-
Proper push-up technique requires you to maintain good posture and a straight body. Tighten your core muscles, quads and glutes to stabilize your body and maintain the correct position. Place your hands slightly wider than shoulder width. Lower your body by bending your elbows. At the bottom of the push-up, your elbows should be bent at a 90-degree angle. Then, return to the starting position.
-
Do not hold your breath when doing push-ups, especially when you are at the end of a set and your muscles are tiring. Correct breathing during push-ups helps prevent fatigue by making sure your muscles have plenty of oxygen. When doing a push-up, breathe in as you lower your body and exhale during the most difficult part of the exercise, when you push your body back to the starting position, advises the American Lung Association.⠀⠀⠀⠀
