Quick Tips on Exercises

Here are some exercise tips you might find useful in the gym or elsewhere. I will be giving these short tips so it will be easier to read and remember.
1. Split Cardio.
Spread your cardio to double your gains. A University of New Hampshire study found splitting a 30 minute session into two halves led to a 29% rise in workout capacity. Reap the benefits by cycling to and from work.
2. Rest to Grow.
A Taiwanese study found that performing heavy bicep curls with sore muscles did not slow muscle recovery - as long as there had been at least a 48-hour rest period. So hit the gym four times a week, working the same muscles every other session.
3. NO Floor-gazing.
Looking down when you squat can cause an injury, say scientists at Miami University. Floor-gazing during the move causes your body to lean forward, increasing the strain on your lower back. Keep your head straight by looking at your image in a mirror.
