just thinking about your next activity isn’t
beneficial, or even sensible. This can hurt your
goals, or even set you back, which only harm
you in the long run.
Keep things more realistic.
First, rest is very important. Muscles need rest
between workouts. Working the same muscles
in the same way too often results in injury and
a reduction in performance. When a muscle is
overtired, the load is taken into the joint. Joints
are not designed for load they are designed for
movement. Tendinitis and joint pain are pretty
common indicators of over training.
Second, vary your workouts. This is why
fitness instructors recommend doing different
sports or fitness activities. But for “die hard”
weight lifters, variation can be accomplished

in a variety of ways. One common way is to
work different muscle groups in different days.
Another method is to change the way in which
a particular exercise is performed so as to train
the muscles differently. An example of this
would be to change the speed of the lift from
workout to workout, like very slow one day,
the faster the next time the muscle group is
worked.
Lastly, and perhaps more importantly, keep
a realistic schedule that matches your goals.
If you’re going for the Olympics, than by all
means, train long days. If you’re a regular
person who wants to get or stay in shape, you
can easily keep quality workouts with 30 to 60
minutes a day. You don’t even have to exercise
every day to see results, especially if you
maintain a healthy diet.
