Teenage Bodybuilding

Teenagers always want to impress and greater numbers than ever are looking to do this by having a spectacular body with muscles to match. Bodybuilding is also for teenagers who want to have well toned physique and improve their overall health. There are specific teenage bodybuilding exercises that they need to stick on to in order to achieve their bodybuilding goals.

Tips for Teenage Body Building

Workout Frequency: You can do this workout 3 days on followed by one day off as I did during my teen years. If you need more time to recover from your workouts, you can train 2 days on and 1 day off picking up the next workout in the sequence on the following training day. Hardgainers do best by training Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday with weekends off.

Use Perfect Form: Make sure that you use perfect form on all exercises for maximum stimulation and injury prevention. Never sacrifice form in order to add more weight.

Keep It Fast Paced: Rest 60 seconds in between sets.
