Have you ever taken a look around your gymnasium to see what the people around you are doing?
Do you ponder whether the workout they do will help you accomplish your own physical goals faster?
Those are a number of questions to ponder as you keep reading this, but the fact is there is always a 'better ' lift to do than the majority of the lifts that you see folks performing at your gymnasium.
For example, today a couple in my private gym took it upon themselves to do a range of exercises working their body from head to toes, or so they believed.
Their workout commenced with some dumbbell shoulder shrugs. That exercise targets the trapezius muscles that, if massive enough, might make you appear like you've got no neck.
On the surface of things that would seem to be a good exercise to do, but if you dig slightly deeper you will find that exercise does little in the way of helping you burn even the most minute of calories.
Let us look at it mathematically. The quantity of work done is the same as the force times the distance you are moving that force and the quantity of times that you're moving that force. For instance, if one was to use 30-pound dumbbells you could move that weight a total of three inches maximum. The trapezius muscles aren't that massive so do not have the range the larger muscle groupings do.
So that 30-pound weight moved 3 inches, ten times, gives us a bunch of nine hundred. The unit of measure at that point is unimportant.
Now lets take a look at an alternative exercise, the army press. This exercise is done with an Olympic bar pressing it from about your jaw all the way above your head until your arms about absolutely extended.
For this exercise we only used the weight of the bar which is 45-pounds. If you make the motion as if you were performing the exercise you could notice the distance that bar is going to go is around twenty-four inches or even more dependent on your size, and that was done for a total of ten repetitions. So 45-pounds, times 24-inches, times 10 repetitions gives us a number of 10,800- again the unit of measure is irrelevant. It only becomes relevant if we were to work out that number into calories burned.
On the surface, doing the army press was twelve times better than doing a dumbbell shrug, and that was with only the 45-pound bar.
This is one example of a method to see if you are getting the best out of your workout . Many individuals are unconcerned to a couple of the exercises that they decide to do and just do anything that comes to mind. You only have so much energy when you hit the gymnasium floor, make it count and put it toward exercises that may give you the bang for you buck.
