Poor technique
Many newcomers to the gym just flail their arms and legs when they pick up a barbell or set of dumbbells. Instead, work with a personal trainer for a few sessions to learn the proper form for each exercise.
Too much weight
Start with lower weights than you think and increase slowly. You might get injured trying to lift more weight than you can safely control.
Badly designed exercise program
Don’t just focus on a few exercises and a couple parts of your body. Have a personal trainer create an exercise program that takes into account your goals, your body type and any injuries you have had.
Neglect of other aspects of fitness
Don’t ignore your cardiovascular conditioning, flexibility, and mobility just to get bigger and stronger.
Watch this video for a more detailed explanation of these mistakes so you can stay safe and have better results in the gym!
