Publisher's Synopsis
This book is intended for those new to weightlifting. Therefore, I'll walk you through developing a weightlifting program by teaching you specific warm-ups, exercises, and stretches for each of the body's major muscle groups. At the end of this book, you will also find sample workout programs. Feel free to take pieces of different programs and mix them together once you understand the movements and are comfortable with the concept of programming.
I've also included helpful tips with every exercise in the book, like how to make a movement easier or more difficult. Take special note of any Home Workout Hack tips, as these tips will provide you with alternative movements that you can do if you are at home and are lacking certain equipment.
Another thing to pay close attention to are any Lift Safely tips. These will provide you with any additional notes that you'll need in regard to form, range of motion, and properly executing the movements.
While I will go into more detail on this later in the book, it's worth mentioning here that it's critical to warm up properly before working out. A proper warm-up will help you prepare your muscles for the workout as
well as prevent injury. It is equally important to stretch after your workout.
There will be warm-up movements and stretches provided for each muscle group in this book. In other words, keep reading and you'll have all the tools necessary to learn how to lift weight safely, effectively, and for life!
