Common Mistakes People Make At The Gym

1. Choosing exercises are not realistic

Too many grab exercise plan from the famous fitness influencer and follows it with bad results. Too often, exercises are not practical with your fitness level. It’s hard to stick to the plan when it was not created for you, and it’s even risk for injury when you are not sure about the exercises.

2. You’re doing the same thing over and over again

Too many do every time the same things year after year. Progress demands variation. Follow your plan for 6-8 weeks and change stimulus after that.

This is why our Mossa Group fitness programs have new releases. Change is good for the body!

3. You’re skipping the warm up

Skipping warm up is for lazy ones. And guess what, you are not winning anything! Research tells that your performance will be better if you do a proper warmup and better performance means better results. Plus, skipping warm up is a risk for injury.

4. You’re going too fast

If you have been sitting on a sofa for years, you are not in a hurry. Aim for change where you change your habits for the rest of our life and results will follow.

5. You let yourself get distracted

Focus on the game. Forget your phone and social media while you are training.

6. You neglect your diet

Gains need energy! You can’t exercise without fuel and, you will not recover without food.

7. Not consulting anyone

Ask help. Friend, trainer, or just somebody from the gym to get forward. Don’t forget, all Shapes members receive one free $50 consultation with one of our fitness coaches.
