12 Tips for Going to the Gym for the First Time

A stat of a trusted source says, a 30-minute workout a day and healthy food style keeps you fit. It also stimulates various brain chemicals that keep you happy and active all day long.

Going to the gym is adrenaline, but reality is different. You might have seen many videos on gym fails and you never want to happen it to you right? That is what we want too.

It is common to feel like “It is time to lift yourself to the gyming mode!”

But you have to start from scratch, right? Especially if you are a beginner!

Here are the 12 Tips for those going to the gym for the first time.

Tips For Those Going to the Gym For the First Time

W.H.O recommends adults and children spend at least 60 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic or other physical activity to lead a healthy lifestyle.

Gyming is a significant physical activity, and getting started today is crucial for better fitness tomorrow.

Follow these tips religiously, and you will see gradual yet steady results. Let’s start with setting up the goals!

1. Setting Your Goals

“slow progress is still progress”

We can’t expect instant results in shaping your body. When it comes to beginners, the muscles are not capable of lifting or holding up to heavy weights.

It could damage/tear your muscles if you push harder. So it’s vital to split your ultimate goals into several small goals and try to achieve them time to time. Start with baby steps!

2. Not Pushing Yourself Hard

Start from small weights and increase the weights by 10% every week.

It may look easy to lift heavyweights. But it needs months of practice and hard work. A small wrong move could be disastrous to your muscles.

Take it slow and steady. There is no way to stop you from reaching your goals.

3. Be Consistent

Regular exercise and proper nutrition can only make you reach your goals. Stick to the schedule and try to eat healthy foods to recover your protein.

As a beginner, when you start exercising, your body may continuously feel pain for at least a week.

All you need is a good sleep. Not procrastination. So, just stick to the schedule.

4. Facing Discomfort

Starting as a beginner, everyone will experience physical discomforts such as dizziness, muscle pain, short breath and sweating.

It is perfectly normal for every gym beginner. Never lose your hope to achieve your goals at the estimated benchmarks.

If the pain is excruciating, never hesitate to visit your physician immediately.

5. Brothers At Your Side

Hanging out with your friends is awesome. What could go wrong if he/she workouts with you?

Just take your buddy to the gym and start exercising. It could be a healthy competition and keeps you happy.

Moreover, it’ll be a fun-filled session to exercise with your friend.

6. Warm-Up Is Essential

Before your gym session, you need to warm up your body. Many beginners make this mistake.

Warming up your body makes your body move more flexibly and feel less strain. It also helps you to increase your stamina and reduces the chances of your muscles from serious injuries.

It is understandable that gyms are crowded sometimes. Your warm-up is not essential to be in the gym itself.

For instance, If it is your upper body workout day, you can take time and do some pull-ups at your diy pull up bar before you hit the gym.

7. Myth of Early Morning Workouts

There is no fixed time to take up a gym session. As we all have different lives, the session timing can be tentative. Some wake up early and hit the gym. Some wake up late and take up gym sessions in the evening.

The best time to hit the gym is when you feel that you have the most energy.

8. Never Give Up Attitude!

Hitting the gym and exercising regularly is not a simple task. It needs persistence. Despite the muscle pain and tiredness, you should not give up until you reach your goals.

As discussed earlier, achieving minimal goals can get you to reach the ultimate goals in no time. Accept your hardships and motivate yourself to get a healthy lifestyle.

Never give up attitude should not be confused with Overconfidence. Moving from 20 kg to 100 kg is not “never give up”. It is madness.

9. Be Hydrated

While taking up your warm-up session, your body temperature increases. That is the root cause we take up warm-up sessions. It helps our body get used to strain and enhance stamina.

After a warm-up session and workout sessions, you will feel thirstier than ever. Generally, a gym session not only burns your calories but also helps you remove unwanted fatty acids, unwanted water by sweating.

It is important to be hydrated for the whole day after a gym session. Carry at least 500 ml of water container with you. Be it your room or office cabin, you gotta stay hydrated for your next gym session.

10. Try Something New

Taking up the same moves over and over again for a particular part can be lethal to regain muscles. It is quite boring too. Why not try something new for a change?

Always try new exercises, but at definite intervals. Give a certain time to your body to rebuild your muscles after an intense workout.

11. Wear Comfortable Outfits

Sweating a lot is a natural thing for gym-going people. Even for a warm-up or a gym session, wear comfortable outfits.

Cotton tee shirts and shorts are suitable for workouts. Wearing comfortable outfits to the gym not only feels comfortable but also helps you do some stretchy moves. Also wear sweatbands if needed.

12. Take Rest, You Deserve It

Despite all the efforts you deserve a good sleep. Endless exercising is good for nothing. Give your body to take up the change and let it regain muscles.

You will feel a lot better after a long tight sleep. You can take up an effective gym session. After a good sleep.

Yes, a night of good sleep helps your mind and body to be refreshed.

Last but not least, Never forget to take a mental rest too. If you are not feeling like going to gym, it is ok to take a day off. But make sure you hit the gym at least 4 to 5 times a week.

It is Time to Stop Wondering and Start Acting!

Yes, The best time to start doing the work is NOW! So, it is time to hit the gym immediately and start growing gradually!

Manivorous wish you all the best physical health!
