How NOT to Lift Weights: 3 Common Mistakes to Avoid

How NOT to Lift Weights: 3 Common Mistakes to Avoid

To kick off 2018, we're focusing on strength training for runners. And there's an undeniable advantage from getting the fundamentals right before you learn how to start lifting weights:

Progress is faster (you get better sooner!)

Risks are mitigated (far fewer injuries!)

Results are more substantial (you get stronger!)

My goal is to help you limit the early mistakes as you start lifting weights so you can enjoy all of the benefits of strength training exercises:

  • power
  • fewer injuries
  • speed
  • coordination
  • lean muscle
  • efficiency
