3. As a trainer, not a day goes by where I don't speak to people frustrated with their exercise routines. They'll invariably tell me they've been training for years without seeing noticeable improvement in their body. Or they'll say they did okay at the beginning but suddenly hit a training plateau. • Sounds familiar? So what derails a person's ability to get into shape? • If you're not happy with your results and perhaps are thinking of throwing in the towel, take a pause and see if any of the following mistakes apply to your situation. Remember, you can do a lot of things right according to Finess Experts, but it takes doing only one thing wrong to impair your progress.

4. Performing cardio over weight training! • People tend to gravitate toward cardiovascular exercises like aerobics. They often avoid weight training because they think they shouldn't add muscle until getting down to their ideal body weight or, in the case of many women, believe it will make them too bulky. • Reality check: Aerobics do almost nothing to improve muscle tone. Only by lifting weights will you actually firm up your muscles and get that hard body you desire. • What's more, strength training is actually the best activity not only for losing weight, but also for maintaining your ideal body weight over time. Sure, cardio will burn more calories during the activity itself, but lifting weights does something cardio can't: it improves your body's ability to burn fat round the clock.

5. Using weights that are too light! • This mistake is largely addressed at women. While men tend to lift for ego and go ultra-heavy, all-too-often women go in the opposite direction. Walk into any gym and you'll see a woman lifting a 2-pound weight while reading a magazine or talking on her cell phone. Sadly, she doesn't realize this is just an exercise in futility. • Fact is, in order to tone up you need to challenge your muscles beyond their present capacity. This is Exercise 101, the general adaptation syndrome. • Take home message: Make sure the last few reps are difficult to complete. If you're not struggling at the end of your set, the weight is too light! And trust me ladies, you won't end up looking like a she-male by pushing your body a little. It's simply not going to happen.
