lifting techniques / ministry
Working out or going to the gym consist of a lot of things to be on target for getting into shape. I have 6 years experience along with research and other colleagues that have given advice along the way. First thing whether a beginner or a 10 year veteran, form is key when benching, curling, or squatting. To many guys go in in ready to over lift and make a full of themselves not able to finish the set. Lifting what light is good to build the proper form. A foundation has to be set before muscle mass or tone is going to be developed. Second thing is technique is the movement of the motion in the process of exercising. Starting off with the right technique will the world of difference in the long run. When it comes time to move up in weight nothing will be compromised , like pulled muscles, torn ligaments , and correct form patterns. When a form and technique is developed not a sense of accomplishment happens , but people will ask benching weight and how to lift for themselves. I have been asked to train over 20 people on campus and after a few secessions something clicks and they realize they can do it themselves. This past fall semester I had three people that went to the gym with me. Sure they could come , yet I spent more time working with them and really had no time for myself. I had to have my personal time lifting and working out so I could further myself to be a better benefit for the people that went with me 3 times a week. Ministry is like this. We need to train people in the right form and technique and still have personal time to be strengthened ourselves. The better we train and are fit for the mission at task , so will our people we lead.
