Control Your Weight

When you begin going to the gym you will be tempted to progress to heavy weights as soon as possible. Instead of focusing on lifting heavy, your priority should be developing a good form taking time to lift weights that are manageable allowing you to focus on your posture and moving your muscles in the correct way.

A healthy spine usually stems from a strong core. If your core is weak, then your spine doesn’t have any support. When you’re lifting, even during movements as simple as a bicep curls engage your core. By constantly engaging those deep, inner core muscles you are working your abs without even realising it!
