Weight training isn't a picnic or a walk in the park; it is a hard work which if done correctly can bring you great results. If you train with high intensity – the only kind of training which can stimulate growth- you continually flirt with muscle damage. The ability to rub up against the danger zone is very important if you want to achieve the muscular gains. Injury happens very often if the weight trainers is careless about his safety and health. Pushing, tugging and straining against cold, hard iron with all your might can be very dangerous. But how else are you going to stimulate those gains? It is known that the fastest way to achieve progress or start a bodybuilding career is through debilitating injury, you need to be a bit clairvoyant and learn how to prevent injuries. This can be achieved if you start to listen to your body’s feedback and learn to make the appropriate adjustments. Read these 10 most common causes of injury in bodybuilding:  1. Incorrect Technique
One of the most common weight training injury lies in poor exercise technique. IF your workout technique is incorrect your muscle can rip, pull or wrench. As a result your delicate connective tissues can tear quicker than you can strike a match. For example, an out of control barbell or stray dumbbell can wreak havoc.
Our body has unique biochemical pathways. Arms and legs can only move in certain ways, especially when they are stressed by loading a weight. To elude this you should become a technical perfectionist and learn to consider the integrity of your workout: avoid twisting, turning or contorting while pushing a weight. Either repeat the exercise using appropriate technique or miss the weight. It is crucial to learn how to miss a rep safely; learn how to bail out. 2. Too Much Weight
Lifting too much weight during workout puts a bodybuilder in high risk of injury. If you can’t control excessive weight as you lower it and can’t contain a movement within its biomechanical boundaries and if you have to jerk or heave a weight in order to lift it, it means that it is too much for you. If you don’t check the weight on your barbell or dumbbell the weight obeys the laws of gravity and seeks the floor which causes injury. 3. Bad Spotting
If you lift weight for too long take a spotter to help you at certain exercises like the squat and bench press. When you work at the highest intensity you can miss a repetition. However it is not bad, your body just signals that you are working to the end limit, which is useful if it isn't overdone. A good spotter should help a bodybuilder at all times when he or she might fail. Your training partner can also lend a gentle touch to help you complete the repetition which has been missed before. Choose a top spotter who is strong, sensitive and ever alert to the possibility of failure.
