Some training mistakes you’re making when lifting weights

The bike or treadmill at the gym is the go-to warm up equipment but they generally only prepare your lower body for a lifting session. Instead, get your legs prepared to train with squats. For the upper body, you want a blend of benchpresses and rows. Start with a weight you can lift 15-20 times but only do six reps. Take half a minute break, then bulk up the weight to one you can lift only 10-15 times but with only four reps. After another 30 second break, find a weight you can lift just 5 to 10 times, do two reps and you’re good to go.
