Eat a Balanced, Healthy Diet
Weight lifting for beginners is more than just pushing iron! A poor diet will prevent the beginner from achieving significant gains. The body you have today is the result of what you have been putting in it for the past several months. Get plenty of protein, carbohydrates, and essential fatty acids and limit junk food, sugars, alcohol, and fast food.
Get Plenty of Rest
Again, weight lifting for beginners is about more than just pushing iron. Along with a healthy diet, you need to get adequate sleep. Believe it or not, but your muscles repair themselves and grow when you sleep - NOT when you're at the gym lifting. If you're not getting enough sleep, you're not giving your muscles enough time to repair and grow. Furthermore, if you're not fully energized when you hit the gym, how effective do you think your lifting will be? I can lift a lot more weight and I can push myself harder when I've had a good night's sleep. Aim to get eight hours of sleep every night.
These are the basics that should make weight lifting for beginners easier, safer, and more effective.
