Whenever I go to the gym, typically in the weight section, I notice many people performing certain exercises with awful form/technique. Although with awful form, you can still notice improvement in muscle growth/fat loss, continually doing it the improper way will most likely result in injuries. The problem with injuries is they hurt and you won't be able to exercise that muscle group anymore until it has healed. This could take months and result in muscle loss and possible fat gain in that area. Here are some ways and useful tips to maximize muscle growth and help prevent injuries!
1: Sleep enough: Sleep deprivation is actually one of the biggest health problems occurring in the United States. Sleep deprivation can actually slow down muscle growth dramatically! A growth hormone known as GH actually is what builds muscle, if sleep time is reduced so is the potential of GH, therefore slowing down muscle growth.
2: Improper technique. Improper technique is probably one of the most costly mistakes people make while working out. Not only does it affect the amount of muscle fiber usage during exercise (resulting in less muscle usage) but it can lead to serious long term injury as stated before.
3: Not enough calories: Ever wanted to gain those rock hard abs or flat stomach? Many people think that by going on diets (where they do not get sufficient calories for muscle growth) will speed up the process of fat loss. But in fact, instead they are losing muscle in other parts of the body in order to rebuild torn tissue after exercising.
