Work out every day or every other dayfor a 14 yr old?
Answer:
it's fine to work out at night. people tend to comment have little or no experience in the subject matter and just repeat whatever they've heard (which is generally wrong).
first thing: you shouldn't work the same muscle group every night. in fact, you shouldn't work it every other night either. it should be once per week. no more.no less.
second: you need to work your entire body. if you don't, you will be creating an imbalance throughout your body. so after you've worked your bi's for a while and they're stronger, you'll go to lift something heavy and your chest and or shoulder joints won't be able to. injury.
Well, in health class we learned that you shouldn't exercise everyday b/c it's possible to damage your body and you need to take breaks to prevent an injury such as pulling a muscle or overworking your body. And that exercising at least 3-4 times a week is just right for a teen's body.
'Hope this helps!
if your doing things like weight lifting((including the push ups and shoulder raises)) then it should be every other DAY. doing excercize at night is really bad for you. and you want to do them every other because it tears your muscles, and you want to give them time to heal. Doing the curls and crunches every DAY should be fine though, because your not tearing your muscles.
I personally think you're too young to be doing this intense of a workout at your age. You need to be sure your eating more calories than your burning. Fourteen is a ripe heatlhy age, where you just beginning to really hit your growthspurt. You need to eat right and enough. Eat lots of protein, meat cheese eggs beans etc. Do your work out 4 to 5 times a week, not every night. You're body needs a rest to recovery and get back up to speed which is so important at your age.
