Weight Lifting Guides For Beginners

Hey everyone! Thanks again for visiting our blog.

If you're new to weightlifting or perhaps you're considering taking it up, there's a lot of different things you need to know. I hope to walk you through a few of these.

One of the biggest myths I hear over and over again is women can't lift weights. They tell women they will ruin their body if they weight life. This is totally false. Ladies, weightlifting helps you get stronger.

One of the most common mistakes I see is men and women coming in trying to lift too much weight. If this is your first rodeo, start out slow. Then you can work with more weights.

Nutrition has A LOT to do with your progress. It doesn't matter if you're weight lifting, trying to lose weight or simply wanting to get healthy, nutrition plays a key role in your health. You have to know what you're eating at all times.

Lastly, before we get to the weightlifting guides, I want to bring up accountability. I'm bad for it, it took a mentor teaching me. But you need to be held accountable for what you do or don't do. Trust me, get someone to hold you accountable. They can't be the personality that tells you yes all the time, it won't work.

You need someone that isn't afraid to tell you no.

Ok, to what I promised, here's the 5 best weightlifting guides (and strength training) for beginners that I found online this week.
