Tip 8: Training program for beginners at home



So, you are going to start studying and bringingyour body in order, find a sporty look. You are already considering the choice of gym and training program. Wait, do not rush! Your body must first be prepared for training loads. And this can be done at home.





The training program for beginners at home







Before starting to fully train ingym, you will need to spend some time on the minimum adaptation of your muscles to a new load for them. This will not require anything from you, except the desire and a little bit of your time. Even a gym for these purposes is not required - it is quite possible to study at home.

So, here's the program you need to do at the very beginning:

  1. Twisting lying (legs lie on a chair) 3 X max.
  2. Squats 1 X max.
  3. Push-up push-ups (from the knees) 1 X max.

The left figure is the approach. She says how many times you have to "come up" and do the exercise. For example, in our case, you tossed your legs and without stopping made some amount of twists (until your strength is over). This is called - to make an approach. Then you rested for one minute, again lay down on the floor and threw your legs on a chair or bed - the next series of twists. This will be the second approach. We rest for another minute and make a third approach. "Max." Indicates the number of repetitions: the highest possible for you.

In the future, you will use such a load,so that the strengths come to an end (muscle failure has come) in a certain, necessary range, but for now you need to prepare your muscles for such a load. After three series (approaches) to the press (twisting lying), you rest a minute and do one approach of squats with your own weight, that is, without additional load (50-100 ... as you can) and then rest a minute.

The last thing you do is push-ups lying in thelight form: kneeling. Also the maximum possible number of repetitions in the approach. What's next? Next we wait for the next day and .... pain. Exercise damaged your muscle fibers. And since there was no such experience before your muscles, these injuries are especially traumatic. The pain says that you did everything right, and that the work was at its peak. "Healing" takes a certain number of days. In beginners, most likely the pain will persist for 3-7 days.

Your task is to repeat this training throughone day after the pain has completely passed. After the second workout, the pain will pass faster, after the third even faster. You continue to make this complex until the pain recedes and you will have the opportunity to exercise twice a week. Those. pain recedes on the 2nd day or you do not feel it at all. This is a sign that you can train the muscles of the press 2-3 times a week. A leg and chest 1-2 times a week. Legs, buttocks, pectorals tend to hurt a little longer than the press because of its size.
