The year 2023 is coming to an end and you want to start 2024 in a sporty way? We share our advice to get back into sport in the best possible way: start / resume physical activity gently and then improve your sports performance little by little.
Define your goals
Clearly identify your needs in order to adapt your training and your eating plan. What are your motivations for getting back into sport? What are your expectations in a year? What does your body need? How would you feel better in it?
Asking yourself a question allows you to define your needs precisely and establish an effective action plan for the future. Gaining mass or losing weight does not require the same exercises or the same diet.
Track your progress
Track your progress rigorously. Keeping a journal of important information can help motivate you (goal, current weight and BMI, meals, exercises performed, feelings after the session). Over time, you will observe your progress and the fruits of your efforts. In addition, it allows you to better understand how your body works to better target your goals.
Take a coach
In bodybuilding, many athletes testify to the usefulness and relevance of having a coach, whether you are a beginner or an expert.
As a beginner, a sports coach helps you discipline yourself. Weekly appointments get you used to devoting time to physical activity. In addition, the obligation to deliver results once on site develops rigor and discipline. A coach helps you avoid the mistakes most often made by beginners. It is therefore a long-term investment.
As an amateur sportsman or athlete, being supervised by a sports coach is also recommended, especially in the context of a competition. Taking a coach when you are an advanced sportsman allows you to intensify training, correct errors and increase the precision of movements. In addition, a coach ensures the achievement of your goals and motivates you.
Many gyms offer coaches at their disposal, without any price increase. Coaching is very accessible and widespread. It is quite possible to hire an independent coach depending on your contacts, your geolocation and your budget.
Prioritize collective activities
Practicing a sport with others encourages you to be more rigorous and allows you to advise, challenge and surpass yourself. This is also true for bodybuilding practitioners. Going to the gym with your gym partner gives you extra motivation. Don't forget that it is possible to sponsor your partner to benefit from discounts on Nutrimuscle products.
Food supplements to have for the start of the school year
Essential proteins
Native Whey : The most widespread and accessible protein is native whey. Ideal for gaining mass, native whey is THE supplement with which to restart gently. It provides the protein level necessary for muscle development and is considered a must-have for bodybuilding.
Micellar casein : Casein is an ideal nighttime protein. To combat catabolism, casein provides amino acids to the muscle throughout the night. It takes over from native whey by slowly distributing nutrients. In addition, it limits snacking by providing a satiety effect. Casein is ideal for fat loss by limiting muscle wasting.
Preventing injuries
Collagen I : Collagen is an essential dietary supplement for athletes, regardless of their practice and level of training. It prevents injuries related to joints and tendons, while having aesthetic benefits on the skin, hair and nails. Type I collagen has no specific target, it acts on the entire body and reduces the risk of injury.
Collagen II : Type II collagen is recommended for people prone to joint problems. Indeed, this type of collagen targets joints and tendon areas. It has a deep action on skin tissues, but it is more used for its benefits in relieving joint pain.
Improve your concentration
A good recovery requires good concentration. After several weeks of vacation, it can be difficult to regain good discipline. However, precision and rigor are essential to sports practice to perform the right movements and avoid injuries. To improve your concentration, there are different food supplements.
Citicoline : Citicoline is an essential nutrient composed of choline and cytidine. These molecules allow citicoline to boost physical and intellectual performance, but also to increase strength and endurance during training.
Focus Mix : Focus Mix is a Nutrimuscle blend that combines citicoline, astaxanthin and caffeine. Citicoline improves neurotransmitter activity, astaxanthin reduces joint inflammation and caffeine boosts the body. Focus Mix is therefore the ideal blend to prepare for training because it helps maintain performance, reduces recovery time and keeps fatigue away.
Creatine : Creatine is very popular because of its effects on muscle mass. Few people know that creatine has other benefits, especially on the brain system. Children, students and seniors can consume creatine to develop their intellectual performance, accelerate learning and protect the brain from degeneration.
