Here’s another one….Let me know if you’ve heard this before, “Always do your big barbell lifts at the start of every workout!” I’ve heard this very common programming advice so many times over the years that I stopped trying to argue about it. This simply mindset is a quick trip to injury! What if I told you that the real advice – learned from being in the trenches and training hundreds of athletes is, t ake weight OFF the bar and focus on better quality repetitions performed with a controlled and deliberate pace. Well, after 35+ years in the gym and over 20+ years as a strength coach, this has to be one of the worst lies that lifters and trainers truly believe. The only way to get bigger and stronger is to keep adding more weight to the bar.
The second piece of bad advice that I’ve gotten over the years is more of a fitness ‘myth’ – and it goes like this… Trust me, the truth (that I learned the hard way) is that if you sit around all day ‘resting’ your aches and pains – they get worse! And the best place to improve your quality of life is in the gym.
Living longer is everyone’s goal, but there also has to be a quality of life. Yeah, rest is important, but so is the quality of your life. This was probably the worst advice I’ve ever been given over the last 35+ years I’ve been in the gym. I’m sure you’ve heard that when you’re injured, you need to rest. Trust me, I know! The saying goes, “movement is medicine” – and it is absolutely true.
