Mens Beginner Workout

Watch The Second Hand:
If you really want to get 100% out of your gym time, pay careful attention to the time you rest between sets. By reducing that amount of time, you can significantly increase the intensity of your training – essentially packing more muscle-building activity into a shorter period of time. Doing so can further stimulate muscle growth. While the ideal rest period varies with each particular exercise, the general rule of thumb is, one to two minutes of rest between sets should be all you need.

Mighty Mini-Meals:
With your busy schedule, it’s not always easy to get your 3 squares in, let alone the 2-3 mini-meals you need to maintain energy levels and a healthy metabolism. You could hit the vending machines, but who knows what diet dangers lurk between selections A1 and E9. When you’re looking for portable foods, remember to grab these on your way out the door:

nuts and seeds – providing protein and healthy, monounsaturated fats
fruits with “appeal” – pre-wrapped packages of phytonutrients and carbohydrates
protein bars – complete with protein, carbs, and a smattering of vitamins and minerals
