8. Stretch & flex<br />
Stretching both be<strong>for</strong>e you lift and afterwards helps avoid aching muscle pain<br />
the next day. Stretching and flexing your muscles during your workout<br />
between lifts keeps blood flowing in your muscles and helps prevent injury.<br />
9. Keep proper posture<br />
If you’re doing lots of lifting, but using poor technique, you’re wasting your<br />
time. Ask your training partner to critique your technique, or work out in front<br />
of a mirror.<br />
<strong>10</strong>. Practice proper nutrition<br />
Remember the GIGO principle: Garbage in, garbage out! Drinking a whey<br />
protein shake right after working out helps your body build muscle (without<br />
enough protein you can’t build muscle mass) but nutritional supplements<br />
won’t replace eating right and doing the hard work of doing the lifting itself.<br />
