Workouts are a healthy solution that is often offered as advice to people who want to go down the healthier path. But there can be quite a few things that you could do wrong when figuring out your workout plan. Here are 5 things that you should avoid doing while working out, as per ‘Coach Debbie Run’s report’. Take a look:

1) Not using the right weights:
Don‘t pick up weights that aren’t challenging just because ‘bulking up’ isn’t on your agenda. You won’t reap any benefits from not using enough weights! On the other hand, don’t go overboard as well! It will only lead to poor form and potential injuries. You won’t get stronger without a challenge but also know your limits.

2) Variety is also the spice of your fitness plan!
People sometimes can get very used to the routine, getting to the gym and warming up and then hitting the machines and then the weights, and then you’re done. It is better to change up your workout, add different exercises, set a different order, a different load, or a different number of repetitions and sets.

Change things up every 4 to 6 weeks for better gains in strength. It will also help you with death by boredom!

3) We need to wake our glutes up!
Often it happens that our butt forgets how to function since we end up spending quite a bit of time on it! Even the most active person with a precise workout regime has to go back to their sedentary job that involves sitting. Sometimes all we need to do is learn how to activate our gluteal muscles before a lower-body workout to get the most out of our workouts. You could start simple with squats, lunges, and deadlifts. It will lead to better results and successful workouts for sure!

4) Strength is only one part of your fitness plans:
Many people focus on the strength part of the workout and forget about the rest. Even though strength is an important part of the workout, you also need to add some balance and flexibility training to your workout. Maybe stay on the treadmill for a bit longer than you usually would before you start your weight workout.

5) Adopting your training buddy’s workout:
While having a workout buddy is great for motivation. And you always have someone with you if you make a mistake. But often we end up adopting our partner’s workout. It will only be a successful workout if you both also share the same physical condition, age, and goals! Design a workout session that is set to give you the desired result!
