Word is the street is that you’re working out! Alpha’s single best decision in life has been working out — directly impacting his confidence and self esteem. In this video men’s style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro  wants you to see progress so you’ll stick with it — so here are some issues he’s identified that might need correcting in order to keep seeing gains.

MISTAKES Guys Make When Working Out

1. Rotating elbows upward with dumbbell curls — the tension is taken off of your bicep. Instead, keep the upper part of your arm tight to your side. Move the bottom part and keep the tension on the muscles for maximum stimulation and growth.

2. Over-training — the most you should work each muscle group is once per week.

3. Swinging legs during hanging leg raises — the movement should be a control lift, contraction, & control lower with back flat against the pad the entire time. Go slower and squeeze with the contraction.

4. Not giving muscles the needed high-quality, easily absorbable & digestible protien after working out — 10 BEST Supplements to Build a {Better} Body

5. Improper push-ups with a sway back or that look like humping the ground — hands shoulder width apart, body aligned, butt is down & tight. If your body gets out of align, go to your knees.

6. Scared to do fasted cardio (aka cardio on empty stomach, steady state, HIIIT) because of losing muscle mass — muscle is not a snowflake that will vanish. Use Quadracarn (amino acid) to shred body fat and get lean when exercising. Combine with CLA, it’s incredible for shredding body fat.

7. Not working the lower body — for a balanced physique, legs must be worked

8. Lifting with ego rather than muscle (lifting too heavy) — don’t worry about anyone else and don’t use super heavy weights. You won’t get a good range of motion, and you risk injury. Control and contract!

9. Not doing body weight dips — they are one of the best exercises for chest, shoulder, and triceps. They aren’t easy but most fitness centers have an assisted dip machine where you can build up to your body weight. Reciprocally, you can also make it challenging with chains and weight plates.

10. Not going to the gym — take care of yourself physically. Working out is the best decision that Alpha ever made. You need to have a plan to be effective and moving in the right direction.
