Is lifting weights important?

I used get that a lot, especially from my past trainers.. LIFT WEIGHT OR STAY SMALL.. This concept was not clear until recently when I had finished a workout plan with basic nutrition. I created a workout routine for myself which include basic exercises targeting the bigger muscles. On the other hand, nutrition included carbohydrates and natural protein intake from various forms of food. I did not consume any supplement for this plan. I noticed a boost of energy in my body which I never felt in the past years of workout. It made my body more energetic and full of endurance.

On the contrary, during the time I was all about heavy lifting; I use to stay in bed for hours relaxing my muscles. YES!, the result came out great but it was not worth it. Plenty of things got affected; especially work.

Recently, I came up with this plan inspired by athletes; the FIRST thing is RUNNING, believe it or not. It is the key to bring activeness in your body. Secondly, forget heavy weights and consider proper form & the right tempo. It is VERY VERY VERY important that you follow proper form of the exercise. Suppose, you are lifting heavy weight on a bench press and your grip is almost right (slightly inward) and your wrist is loose. This is something you do not want to experience! However, when you are lifting moderate weights, you will notice the burn/stretch in your muscle and where exactly the effect is coming at. It is exactly what you want. Follow the RIGHT tempo! Consuming 1800-2200 calorie diet with this workout routine; the results will come out great! REMEMBER, the chances are it will not work for you if you do not follow the right nutrition plan. 80% of it depends on the food you consume.

It was worth the time and effort I had put in this plan, the results came out great which motivate me even more to stick to this plan. The BEST part is; plenty of food options are open in this nutrition plan!

How do I start a nutrition plan and stick to it?

This question is often asked by majority of the people, there are multiple answers to the question. Personally, I have been through this phase where I did not focus on my nutrition and the changes which were occurring to me. It is not felt at the very first because the process is internal and when it reaches its limit; you start to see the changes and they are terrible!

You must have had this conversation with your friends/family as to how can I stick to a particular nutrition plan and not get bored with it?? Well, human nature is designed in such a way that you cant stick to one activity throughout! Likewise, you have to bring changes in the food you eat and often add dishes which your taste buds love!

We all understand that it is difficult to be prompt or motivated towards something, distraction is always there! If we talk about our nutrition, we mess it up by eating in excess or the wrong combination of food available to us. What if you were asked to eat the food you like and still achieve the goals you have? Ask me how!
