Not planning your routine ahead of time

Walking into the gym without a plan in mind is a bit like heading to the grocery store without a shopping list. Youll end up wandering aimlessly back and forth, spending way more time than necessary. Your plan of attack should be well thought out in advance. Include the exercises, sets, and reps as well as the order you want to do them in so you can plan your route around the weight room floor.If youre working out with a buddy, take time to discuss the routine ahead of time so youre both on the same page. This cuts down on talking and ensures that you both get down to business.
