Training for teenagers brings specific challenges. You go to school, live with your parents or guardians, and you need to balance your school obligations with the demands of training.
School is definitely the priority. You need to get an education because a quality education opens up more opportunities. It is definitely necessary to follow your desires and educate yourself for a job that you will love and you will be happy to do.
Being in school and later studying at home requires a lot of time, which is why good time management is important to make the most of your time for your goals, which are studying and training.
Training three times a week doesn’t take up much time, and one training session falls on a Saturday when there is no school, so that’s an added advantage.
Training in a rhythm of “training – rest – training – two days of rest” gives enough time for growth and recovery, and there is no risk of overtraining.
Try to wake up and go to bed at the same time every day and have eight hours of sleep every night.
On Saturday nights, you can go out with your friends or similar places because going out and socializing with your peers should not be neglected.
Try to align your diet with the dietary requirements of a bodybuilder as much as possible, but if you are unable to choose your diet, do not give up on training because training itself with a deficient diet gives good results, and with continuous training, you will certainly progress and build your body.
The training program for teenagers that I have suggested is for intermediate exercisers, meaning that it is for those who have passed the beginner training phase. It can last for 3-6 months.
This training program is for people who want to build muscle mass. People who want to lose weight can add half an hour of cycling at the end of the workout.
