So you're exercising regularly and really making it a priority. That's great! But make sure you don't fall into some of these exercise traps. You want to make sure you're following good technique so you can get the most out of your workout. AOL Health shares some common bad exercises techniques:- Weight overload. Lifting too much weight can, at worst, cause injury and, at a minimum, cause the move to be ineffective. When you're lifting too much you may not be isolating the muscles properly.
- Biceps only. The bicep curl is a great exercise, but don't spend all of your strength training time on one muscle. Be sure to work out your shoulders, triceps, legs, core, and glutes as well. When strength training, you want to strengthen all the muscles of your body.

It finally seems like spring is here. Winter hung around a little longer than usual, but it's now finally time to start swapping out your winter duds for your warmer weather T's and shorts. It also means that if you want your body to be ready for summer, you better kick your workout into overdrive -- because, believe it or not, Memorial Day is only six weeks away!!
Very few workouts burn fat and build lean muscle as fast and as effectively than resistance training circuits. By combining several weight training exercises, with little to no rest in between sets, you get both the muscle-building and cardiovascular benefits all rolled into one.
Men's Health recently published a number of great resistance training workouts in their U.K. edition (which is basically the same as the U.S. version, only they confuse the hell out of me by using the metric system when referring to calories, portion size, and the weight of dumbbells). The best part about the following circuit routine is that you only need a basic set of dumbbells to do it.
WARM UP - Perform a cardio routine of any kind (walking, elliptical machine, rowing machine, etc.) for a slow to moderate pace for five to ten minutes. Then, jump right into these exercises ...SPLIT SQUAT JUMP - Perform 15 reps on each leg, holding the dumbbells by your sides.
SQUAT TO CURL PRESS - Perform 20 reps, starting with the weights by your side and ending with them pressed over your head.
PISTON PRESS - Perform 10 reps on each arm while lying on a bench.
BENT-OVER LATER RAISES - Perform 12 reps.
