Some people do partial reps as they can be performed quicker, and can feel like you’re working harder by getting through your set quicker,” explain the experts at PureGym. “However, if you’re looking to build muscle or improve your strength you really need to embrace the full range of motion of the exercise to reap the best benefits.” Shoes that don’t fit properly can cause blisters, foot pain, or joint injuries. Tight or non-breathable clothing may restrict movement and increase overheating.
Dehydration can lead to fatigue, dizziness, and poor performance. Not preparing mentally or rushing into exercise can reduce focus. Static stretches before workouts can reduce muscle strength and may slightly increase injury risk. Decide whether your session is for strength, endurance, flexibility, or weight management. Setting small, achievable goals helps track progress and maintain motivation. Pain can indicate injury, stiffness, or improper warm-up. Ignoring it may worsen injuries.
