Top 10 Bonehead Workout Mistakes

Common workout mistakes has always been a very popular topic in
fitness publications. But no matter how many times this subject is
re-hashed, you almost always hear about the same half a dozen or so
mistakes, including poor form, overtraining, going too heavy, not
stretching, not warming up, and so on.. Ironically, you seldom hear
about the biggest mistakes of all. I call these humongous bloopers
bonehead mistakes because once you start to analyze and think about
them, they’re really just common sense.

Yes, these make sense if you are a body builder or your goal is to add
muscle mass. Some of us are much more casual even if we are dedicated
to our workout. In that case these are something less than bonehead
mistakes and may not be mistakes at all.

Adding muscle mass is something that I certainly do not wish to do. I
like slender and wiry much more. Then it makes sense to eat fewer
calories, forget the high protein, and just do the same exercises that
seem to work for you with no goal of increasing the work. dkw

I agree, but there are several of these that hold true for anyone, at least
imo. I think a plan is a great idea, and sticking to a diet is much easier,
imo, with a good plan. Striving to beat previous workouts might not be for
everyone, but for me at least, changing my routines or making them more
challenging is rewarding and keeps things interesting. Starving one's self
is never a good idea, the body needs proper nutrition to get the most bang
for the buck, so to speak. Skipping scheduled workouts can lead to missing
more, and more, until there is NO workout schedule. It has happened to me
more times than I care to count. Comparing yourself to others generally
leads to dissatisfaction in all areas, not just physically. Same with
making excuses. Making excuses doesn't address the real problem in life
either.

So, if you are listening with an open mind, there were several applicable
notions.

I don't have a plan for my weight workouts but I do set goals each year
associated with cycling. The goal this year was to do a century and I did
it! The goal next year is to do a week long ride where the distance is
50-60 miles a day. We're currently in the planning stage for this ride.

I keep my cycyling stats in a software program and it's been motivating to
see the distances and average speed increase over the last 3 years.

I found my biggest problem here - comparing myself with others. I tend to
look at other people coming into Physical Therapy for treatment - and know
they need help - but are already in far better shape than I.

Have to compare more how I was when I started therapy - and where I am now.
A tremendous difference.

Yes, my workouts are setup by a physical therapist - I have multiple
physical problems - and have been disabled for 36 years.

It's working.

Adding muscle mass is not going to make you big and bulky. You need to have
the right type of body makeup for that, or use steroids. Body duilders have
to really work hard to keep their muscles looking big and bulky.

Having more muscle mass actually helps you slim down. It helps you burn the
calories, and increases your metabolism. Lifting weights is good for your
bones and your joints as well.
