One thing that nice about forums like these is the sharing of ideas. When someone shares something You can pick out things that could be helpful towards Your goals. I always like to hear differant things.
Have You ever heard," Variety is the Spice of Life". Well I thought it would be good to share how this could be applied to Your workouts. Sometimes a workout can become boring like a routine for some. To me routines are not bad but a little variety can spice things up. This can keep a person interested in what they're doing for there health. If You lose interest You won't stick to it.
So may we can share something that would help someone with variety. I'll go first. Here are some ways to make in between Your sets useful time. They can jack Your heart rate up. You can do a cardio type exercise in between Your sets. It can be anything like jumping jacks, step ups, or whatever You like. You can do them for time like 30-40 seconds or a certain amount of reps. Also in between sets You can do isometrics, self resistance or visualize resistance. All this will jack Your heart rate up.
Another thing You can do is slow Your reps down. This will bring the amount of reps You're able to do down. But changing Your rep speed will hit Your muscles in a differant way. Anyhow, what ways do You guys put variety into Your workouts? I'd be interested in hearing.
Good to see you hear!
