Workout Wednesday #12

Today's Post:
     There are many myths around exercise and diet that always circulate around the internet and around social circles that many have fallen into believing them to be true.  When I first started exercising regularly, most of the time people would give me advice on things that they had heard before regarding exercise.  The things I would hear were: doing crunches every day to get a six pack and loose weight, eating before exercise is the worst thing you can do and the more time that you exercise the more strength, and size you will gain.  Things like this are always heard everywhere and every day by people who are trying to "help" you out.  Whether it is family and friends or even that guy at the gym who looks like hes in shape, most of the time the things you hear just aren't fact. 

Workout Wednesday #1

Introduction:
     For the first Workout Wednesday post, I would like to introduce you all to the exercise routine I started doing when I began to take exercising seriously. A "split" is just a weight lifting schedule that you follow weekly.  This "split" tells you what muscle groups to workout what days of the week or how many times a week.  It will also tell you how many sets you should do and how many repetitions you should do during your workout.  It is important to have a split in my opinion, otherwise you will just be going to the gym and either be under training a body part(usually the legs get neglected) or over training a body part(usually the biceps get over trained). The best part of using a split is how easily you can modify it to suit what you are trying to do. Also many people online have also already posted their splits online on other websites such as bodybuilding.com which is where I usually get my workout supplements and information.
