If You Don't Want To Snap Your 💩 Sh*t Then Read This

Here are 5 tips that have kept me injury free while trying to get these GAINS for 10+ years:

1.When you're training alone you don't want to train to failure. You want to get close to failure but leave about 1 or  2 reps in the tank so you don't die lol. If you must train to failure without a spotter, do it while using machines. Most are dummy proof and have built in safety mechanisms. 

2. If you've been training for a long period of time be careful with trying to lift the whole gym at every training session. If you want to actually be able to move your body well into your golden years you have to be mindful of your joints and respect your rest days. Don't neglect your recovery time. Getting enough sleep and food is one of the most important tools in maximizing your GAINS bruh 💪🏾 

3. Warm up properly before going into your workout. You want to get the blood and oxygen pumping into whatever muscle you're about to train. A warm body is less likely to get injured and you will feel the difference when you start the real work. 

4. Stretch after your workout. You'll probably feel a little tight after your workout from all the blood and oxygen that's pumped into your muscles. Studies have shown that stretching before weight training can make you weaker on your lifts. So waiting till your workout is over is a perfect time stretch and lengthen those tight muscles. 

5. Don't buy into one form of training or diet. Fitness is not a one size fits all type of thing. What works for Arnold might not work for Dorian (-; Play around with different forms of training and diets until you find one that agrees with your body and lifestyle.
