6 Smart ways for a full body workout

Here are the top 6 smart ways for a full body workout session to make your gym time more productive. This session is very important and useful for beginners. If you're just getting started total or full body workouts are the best way to build whole body strength and focus on any weak areas that may come to light when you start exercising. By this session you don't need to spend hours in the gym to get strong and total body workouts prove that some can even be done in less than 30 minutes. 

• ALWAYS START WITH A WARM-UP 

This can be 5 to 10 minutes of cardio or you can use lighter weights and do warm up sets of the exercises.

• ARRANGE THE WORKOUT 

It means you can arrange your workout session in supersets. For instance; you can pair up two different kind of cardio exercises and perform them one by one, parallel to each other, in one set. Combine the dumbbell sets with squats or reverse lunges with pull-up exercises. Keep on repeating them in short intervals for increased performance.

• TAKE THE STAIRS 

While following a good exercise session or routine everyday make sure that you don't break the flow even when you are not in the gym. Going to the office, store, hospital, school in the morning? Use the stairs instead of going with elevator. Take small breaks between your routine and walk around a bit. Don't relax to the extent that you don't feel like going to the gym in the evening.

• MAXIMUM BODY TRAINING 

For all those who regularly follow a good gym routine this is a type of gym exercise which helps you to strengthen the muscles of your back and neck. This method is used in Aerobics. It is also known as the 20:10 method; when you need to repeat 8 rounds, follow for 20 seconds then take 10 seconds rest, and then repeat.

• FOLLOW A HEALTHY DIET

Apart from following a good gym routine don't forget to take care of your diet as well. A healthy diet and a good exercise session goes hand in hand and you cannot achieve optimum results by skipping any one of them. Take lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meat and proteins, friendly fats in your diet. Drink more water to keep yourself hydrated.

• LISTEN TO YOUR BODY 

One thing about total or full body workouts is that they involve all your muscle groups, which can zap your energy if you're doing intense workouts. Pay attention to that and avoid doing so many exercises that you feel drained rather than energized.
