If you are interested in creating a free weight workout program my advice is to seek the advice of a personal trainer. This is Alice Monsaert, I'm going to give you some tips on creating that program. To create a free weight program you want think about the major muscle groups of the body. The chest, the back muscles, the legs, the gluteus maximus. In my free weight training programs I like to alternate between upper body and lower body exercises. Do about fifteen repetitions, take a little break and go back for another set. Do a lower body exercise then an upper body exercise. It's really important to have proper form and technique for every exercise that you do so the advice of a personal trainer is invaluable. They'll help set a program based on your initial fitness level, and your goals of what you want to achieve. And they will be able to progress that program for you. So in my opinion to do a whole free weight program you really need to alternate days, so that you over load the system and then rest, recuperate, recover and then over load the system again. So you could do all your lower body exercises in one day, your upper body exercises the next day or take one day to alternate upper and lower body exercises, take a day of rest, and then start again. This is Alice Monsaert with tips on how to create your free weight program.
