Hey guys! The last time I posted something about the videos that helped me gain weight, I couldn't put these tips on it since it might be too long already. So here it is, the things that helped me gain weight. Make sure to read the whole article especially the last tip because a lot stops working out because of that (including me before).
I am not a professional. I just share what worked for me.
1. EAT
This is suuuper common but what most of us don't know is that we don't need to eat very heavy meals everytime we eat. If you are not the type to eat so much in one seating, you can eat portions of it for 4-6 times a day. Just make sure to get enough calories and proteins that will help you build muscles. You can google how much you need since we have different needs.
These are the protein and calorie-rich food that are easy to find in the Philippines. I can also suggest Richoco wafer for a snack.
2. CORRECT WORKOUT POSTURES
One thing I noticed from my classmates everytime we had our Physical Education class is that a lot of them don't know the correct posture for the exercises. The most common is in squats.
When doing squats, your legs should be parallel to the ground. Your legs shouldn't be slant. Make sure to watch out for this. You can even do squats beside a mirror so you can see your posture.
Next is in push-ups and planks. I will put images here since this is difficult to describe.
Arching your back in these exercises will not only give you no results but also will also give you back pain. So be careful.
3. MOVE YOUR MUSCLES EVEN WHEN LYING DOWN
A habit I got from working out is doing simple exercises like raising my legs when I lie on my sides and flipping them when I lie on my face. Especially on your rest days, you could use this tip for minor muscle movements.
And last but definitely not the least;
4. DONT WORRY TOO MUCH
Don't stress yourself too much over your body. You can make it work. You can get to your goal. Stress only leads to weight loss so comfort yourselves with anything. You can check out my article about it here. (low-key self-plug)
Another thing is that you might freak out after your first few days of working out, you'll probably see parts of your body especially legs and arm, downsizing. But it's nothing to worry about, your itzy bitzy fats are just burning and soon those fats will disappear because the muscles are coming. So no worries.
Alright guys, that's it for today about fitness, I got tons more to share about all of you. Today is workout day so I pray I wont get lazy. I hope you all will start soon and reach your fitness goals.
