Fitness expert speaks out about contraindications to training with free weights

Fargo expert explained that you can train with weights if you are injured

Fitness expert Morgan Fargo spoke about contraindications to training with free weights. Her words are quoted by Women’s Health.

Fargo noted that exercise with weights should be done with caution for those who have muscle injuries, health problems with the back, neck and joints, as well as pregnant women and women undergoing postpartum recovery. At the same time, she emphasized that in these cases, strength training can not be completely ruled out – it is enough to consult with a doctor to draw up a list of acceptable movements, taking into account the state of the body.

The specialist emphasized that it is necessary to warm up before starting a workout. In addition, she gave recommendations on the selection of weights. Fargo advised choosing the maximum weight with which you can perform the exercise without compromising your technique, and doing several sets.

Earlier, fitness expert Egor Khodyrev spoke about the method of drop sets for saving time in training. He explained that drop sets are a training method in which exercises are performed with weights and the weight is dropped when muscle failure is reached.
