Question: Strength Training?


Question Description:
I want to strength train but I have one question. Every time I strength train do I increase the numbers of times I do or do I increase every week. For example I intend to alternate strength training everyday so on Monday I do 10 pushups and then on Wendsday do I do 15? Or do I increase the amount every week instead of every other day? Confusing ain't it...

Answer#1: If you want strength besides the muscles that you'll build, then I would increase the number of times every 3 days, and add extra weight to it every week, or 2 weeks depending on your preference. But make sure not to add too much weight. Add weight by like 5 pounds. Work hard, but don't push yourself over the limit, because I'm sure you don't want to tear your ligaments or anything. Power Walking should really tone you up. Swimming is a really good workout too. Well I hope this helped you out. Good Luck!!!


Answer#2: do how many you feel u can do dont push urself to the limit ride a bike or walk for half hour then do pushups


Answer#3: Maybe try getting the perfect running shoes. i heard they are extremely important for runners. that and keep trying and dont give up. the more you train, the more you learn.


Answer#4: You have to practis all the time then you will be faster


Answer#5: Strenghth! Do your reps for a week, then go higher only by five. If going up is too much on the third week then do the set of fifteen for two weeks then go up again. That should help you.Im an ex female body builder that wanted strength and not just muscle to show off...But if that doesnt help, ask a personal trainer at your local gym.
