Jumping from one workout to another

To achieve the best results, it is important to create a proper fitness routine and stick with it. Fitness experts say consistency yields the best results. But often people jump from one workout to another, which may sabotage their fitness goals. In addition to being consistent with your workout routine, you also must choose the right technique that’s suitable for your current fitness level.

Keep doing the same movements daily

Over time, your body will adapt to exercise stress and you may not see progress if you keep doing the same movements every day. Also, repetitive stress can lead to overuse injuries. In order to optimize your performance, you need to consistently challenge your ability within the same routine.  You should up the ante a bit every two weeks, say experts. You may try running a bit faster or increase the treadmill inclination.

Not drinking enough fluids

Dehydration can decrease your performance. Your core temperature rises when you exercise, putting more stress on your body. During workout, you also lose a lot of water through sweat. Drinking fluids reduces that stress, as well as helps lubricate your joints and reduce inflammation. So, staying hydrated is essential when you’re working out. But how much water you should drink before, during and after exercise? It depends on your age, gender, height, weight, exercise intensity, and how long you exercise.

General guidelines say – 17 to 20 ounces of water 2 to 3 hours before exercising; 8 ounces during your warm-up (or 20 to 30 minutes before exercising); 7 to 10 ounces every 10 to 20 minutes during exercise; and 8 ounces of water within 30 minutes after exercising.
