Return To Bodybuilding Article Archive   The Basics For Your Teenage Bodybuilder By Shareen Aguilar Of course you have to realize first that your kid(s) is (are) of the right age before encouraging them to practice bodybuilding. In bodybuilding, the first and foremost target of the bodybuilder is to get big. So, the idea of training just to get big has to follow naturally. Since most of the teenagers are beginners, they need to start with weekly trainings of about 3 to a maximum of 5x a week. Also, training sessions shouldnt last very long. The idea here is, of course, for the body to undergo faster recuperation period. Similar to the basic procedure of bodybuilding for beginners, its important for the teenage bodybuilder to concentrate in developing one muscle group he desires in a weekly session. For example, have your teenager train his or her chest muscles in every 5 days for less than an hour per session. For the next day, have your teenage bodybuilder target another part of his or her major muscle group. Remember; dont ever attempt to exercise two major muscle groups in one day. This isnt recommended at all since dividing your less than an hour session to two major muscle components wouldnt create much difference at all. You can have your teenage body buff to decide which major muscle group he/she would want to go for first. Then, talk about the other muscle groups that he/she would like to develop next. As for the set of exercises, be sure that you have him/her do bench and shoulder presses, deadlifts, rows and squats primarily in the workout.
