Weight Lifting Safety
Weight lifting safety is vital for everyone who works out in the gym to pack on muscle mass. If you get injured or if you injury someone else then training stops. Rehab for the injury maybe involved or worse sometimes you can never get back into the gym to the severity of the injury.
Sport injury prevention is in your power. You can reduce most of the risk yourself if you adhere to the rules of the gym you are using and have good weight lifting routines .
First I believe you should have a work out partner. That way you always have someone around just in case there is an emergency. For example you may be lifting a lot of weight on the bench press. On the last repetition your muscle fatigue may hinder you getting the weight off of your chest. A spotter's responsibility is to assist you.
Always have collars on the weights if using the long bars or curl bars. Many times I have witnessed lifters in the gym not use the collars. When one are gets weaker than the other the bar may be tipped in one direction which allows the weights to slide off. This can cause severe injury to anyone in the area.
Which brings me to my next weight lifting safety tip. You should wear the proper shoes in the gym. Tennis shoes may not protect you from a foot fracture, but they are better than thongs or any open toed footwear.
To keep from major muscle strains and tears utilize proper stretching exercises before your weight lifting routine. The golden rule is you never work out a cold muscle so warm it up with stretching.
Never sacrifice technique for looking macho in the gym. Bad technique with too much weight causes you to use improper form. Improper form will produce injury. Proper technique always produces better results in the gains you want.
Proper form goes hand in hand with technique. Always keep both feet on the ground for bench press. Lift with you legs instead of your back. Move the weight during the repetition with a controlled deliberate motion. Always have the weight under control.
Your weight lifting safety is in your hands. Be Smart! Be Strong!
