Weight Lifting Programs
Guidelines for Choosing
The Program to Fit Your Goals
How do you choose between all the different weight lifting programs? There are so many out there.
Should you have to pay for the program? How do you know if it is a good program? Does it fit your needs?
I Know How You Feel
It's Very Confusing
I knew how it felt when I was a beginner at weight lifting. I still remember the feeling.
I just took any information I could find
and ran with it. I thought that as long as I was lifting weights with any weight training program that I would make progress.
I was WRONG!
I had no idea what I was doing or where I was going. I just thought I needed to lose some weight, but I had no clue who to follow
or who to listen to. I am here to be the voice you need because I know what you need to do.
Ever Tried a Single Training Routine?
Routines are
one of the biggest and I mean biggest
problems I have with all the weight lifting information out there on
the internet.
I cannot stand to read about training routines any more.
Before we go any farther, I want you to read
why Training Routines are useless.
I want you to
understand the difference between weight lifting programs
and weight
lifting routines...
Know that you need to have a plan and not just a
single routine. Any weight training program will give much greater
results than some routine you find in a magazine.
5 Important Guidelines for
Choosing a Weight Lifting Program
Pay attention to these 5 guidelines. Choosing the right program for you can make the difference
between you getting amazing results and getting no results.
1. Plan of Progression
Is there a
plan for increasing the amount of
weight lifted over time? In other words,
is
there a planned progression of weight lifted? You MUST have this and must
see the big picture.
2. Compound Weight Training Exercises
Does the program include
compound
weight lifting exercises
that work the entire body at once and cut down on time? Compound exercises work the body as a
unit and allow you to make faster progress in less time.
3. Prevent Overtraining
Are there
techniques
that help you avoid overtraining?
or at least some way to recognize when overtraining is about to occur?
4. Planned Breaks
Are there
planned
breaks
or planned decreases in work load? No one can make continuous weight training progress
without taking a break. The body needs a break periodically.
5. Balanced Approach
Are all the
major
muscle groups
a focus of the program? If not, you are setting yourself up for injury and an imbalanced body.
How Did Your Program Do?
If you answered YES to all of the five questions
above, then you have a weight lifting program that was well laid out
and one that will most likely work.
Will it be the best program for
you? You need a program that fits your goals!
Your weightlifting program must help you work towards your goals and
not
work against you.
For example, if you are dieting down, you will need a
program that will not overtrain you because of decreased calories. You
want a program that allows you to increase the weight lifted while you
are in a calorie deficit.
Please make sure that your weight lifting program
gives you a stimulus for muscle growth, has a diet that fits your
goals, helps you plan out your progress, gives you enough rest to grow
and recover, and gets you to your goals!
If the weight program you are currently using does not include a weight
lifting plan, a diet plan, cardio, and stretching, you should think
about switching to one of the weight training programs listed on this
page...
