Tips on Choosing Gym Equipment Many people think that if you want to become stronger, faster, stronger in the gym and get stronger muscles, only focus on specific types of strength machines such as weights, dumbbells, barbells, iron bars, belts, banding machines, kettlebells, resistance bands, kettle bells, pullups and squats. But it's wrong to think that these machines are only suitable for strength training. Some weight machines are specially designed for athletes who want to improve their balance, posture, and coordination. These sports include basketball, swimming, gymnastics, tennis, cross country running, judo, and cheerleading. Although some sports are more demanding than others, most require more strength and fitness than other sports. The goal is to put on as little weight possible, especially when it comes to body weight exercises like pushups, pullups, sit-ups, etc., because some machines like the Kettlebells and Dumbbells are capable of lifting heavier objects and still provide enough reps to complete a full set. As long as you don't overdo or under do your strength training in any sport, and use the correct form, machines can do their job. For example, beginners usually start with 10 to 15 minutes of slow reps and then gradually increase the reps.
Exercise
Here are some exercises that are good for beginners to pick in case you're considering starting a new routine:
- Press-ups
- Standing plank
- Side planks
- Crunches (add 1 in every 2 to 3 sets; repeat until you complete 30 reps)
- Reverse crunch push ups
- Pull-ups
- Bicep curls
Calf raises Push-ups - Dumbbell press: Lie down on the bench and press the dumbbells 1/2 inch apart on your forearms, holding at elbow height and knees bent. Then lower back down to the floor. This is called the “Dumbbell Row”. Alternating between right and left wrist movements will strengthen your forearm, shoulders, core, legs and glutes. Alternate sides – this allows you to develop your shoulder mobility as well as your biceps. Squat jumps Jumping straight from high plank position to a low squat position with slight knee flexion. Jump up and jump right down again before making a comeback on the high plank position. Do 20 reps of jumping straight up and repeating 5 times. Lower step down and stand up slowly. Switch legs, jump, and perform another set of ten reps. This move works both arms, back, and overall core strength. Side plank side plank This is a great exercise to train the triceps, deltoids, and upper back muscles, including your pectoral muscles, scapula, lats, and traps. Stand up with feet hip-width apart. Place hands beneath thighs, hold, and lift shoulders off the ground while looking at your toes. Return and stretch arms forward as needed. Repeat 8–12 times, alternating sides and alternate from left to right. Bicep curl Bend a 90 degree shoulder backward while maintaining shoulder width. Keeping elbows locked to lower chest and shoulders off the ground, bend arms and palms toward head and elbows. Return to standing position and repeat. To get the full benefits from this exercise, try lengthening the range of motion of your abs a bit by adding additional repetitions. Calf raise With knees hip-width apart, lower knees and hips off of a flat surface and bring arms to chin. Pull legs back to waist level while keeping core tight. Raise lower back up but stay with arms extended over wrists. Perform 6-8 reps of a single leg. While performing this movement, keep breathing deeply and holding your breath for approximately five seconds after lowering legs back to standing position. Step-ups Step up onto one foot and place your hands palm up on the side of the shoe while bending knee on the ground. Make sure your hands are parallel to the ground so you can move up easily. Straighten knees until your hips are parallel to floor with arms straight down overhead. Gently push arms back up while keeping knees close to ground for support. Complete 12 rounds of 50 minutes of moderate effort with each round. Leg swings Once you've mastered these basic movements, make sure you practice them harder. When your legs feel tired, start by focusing on your upper body and work your way down to your lower body to keep the flow. Be creative -- swing wildly from side to side or walk backwards and forwards – whatever floats your boat! Back rows First thing's first …back up your strength! Try these moves after each movement to make sure you did as many reps as possible in each set. Back row Start seated facing you with back straight, knees and ankles together, and arms out to the side. Bring legs back to front feet as quickly as possible, lowering legs so they're in front of back legs and back in position. This move helps strengthen your hamstrings and lower back muscles. Don't forget to put your core muscles to work! Situps Situps are pretty straightforward and yet effective in building muscular strength and stability. Beginners should begin by putting fingers to the inside of your shoulder blades (the "top") to activate the shoulder muscles, then spread all four of your forearm muscles out toward your hand(s). Slowly bend elbows to the sides and rest all other arm joints against bones at a 45 degree angle. Extend elbows up. Touch fingers to top of shoulder blades, extend elbows back to rib cage, and return to starting position. Do as many reps as you can. Stretching Hold a yoga mat with your legs behind yours with arms extended out in front, resting your palms on the floor with index finger pointing outward. Tighten abdominal muscles. Stretch arms overhead with the ends of the spine straight. Tuck shoulder blades and roll neck up over wrists. Exhale completely. Repeat until each rep becomes difficult. Shoulder bends Lie down on one side of the bed and bend knees as far as possible, keeping ankle together. Take deep breaths: Inhale and squeeze stomach muscles. Straighten legs then lie down on the left side, keeping feet hip distance apart. Keeping pelvis still and shoulders off the floor, extend elbows straight down and tuck in body. Breathe deeply. Lift shoulders off the ground, extend hands overhead, and tuck elbows down underneath ribs. Hold for 5 seconds before turning to side. Repeat as needed. Hip rolls From a standing position, jump up straight into a kneeling position with feet shoulder-width apart. Lean right knee, bend left knee, and repeat on the other side. Continue alternating legs, raising back knee to touch the outer edge of thigh, lowering knees toward inner thigh, and returning legs. Maintain total eye contact and be aware of the bottom of your feet as you make these jumps. Pushing heels Back and forth to challenge your shoulder muscles, this movement should be performed moderately but consistently. At first, make small pauses throughout and then gradually increase speed and repetition. Each time you switch legs, be sure to touch heels of opposite feet together with palms. This movement stimulates obliques and rhomboids, which make your core stronger. Standing backflips Back and forth with fingertips raised above your head while taking deep breaths, standing with legs back behind you. Now you're ready to finish the exercise. Plank Overhead rotator cuff injury is the number one reason someone receives surgery to repair the damaged tendons, and can sometimes be life threatening.
