Your New Year's Resolution: How's it Going? From Fitness 4 Home Superstore
Well, it's been a few weeks since you've made your New Year's resolution and it's time we checked in to see how it's going. We don’t want you to become just another statistic!
Everyone always starts working out like mad for a week or two and then those workouts just stop. Getting results requires a lifestyle change and a commitment and you can’t do it in one workout. If you are getting this newsletter you probably have a piece of home exercise equipment. The good news is that allows you some flexibility in your program. The key is to build up slowly and minimize the soreness associated with starting an exercise program.
Starting an exercise program can seem like a big task. The most important part is to include all three parts: Cardio, Strength and Flexibility training. Ignoring one of the three can result in injury, lack of results or boredom.
Cardiovascular training provides the heart with many benefits. Lower blood pressure, cholesterol, resting and recovering heart rates and increased lung capacity are the results of a finely tuned cardio program. Cardiovascular exercise uses bigger muscles to increase the heart’s output in a rhythmic, continuous pace. The best cardiovascular exercise is the one that you like to do and can do conveniently. Having a treadmill in your home is only good if you use it!
Strength training teaches the muscles tone as well as burn calories, increases bone density and improves daily movement tasks. In fact, strength training helps you lose weight while you sleep by increasing your metabolic rate. Form is crucial to any strength training program. Seeking the advice of a personal trainer is highly recommended for creating a time efficient, time saving, safe and fun workout. Strength training is recommended at least two to three times per week. You should allow a rest day in between sessions to give your muscles time to repair and recover. Performing one set of each strength exercise for the beginner exerciser will create similar results as multiple set programs.
Flexibility training is the ability to move joints and muscles through their full range of motion, which increases blood circulation and allows the joints to move freely. As you become more flexible, you will find it easier to reach things on high shelves, to look under a bed, or perhaps to tie your shoes. Flexibility training should be performed in general after strength and cardiovascular training. When done properly, stretching can do more than just increase flexibility. According to fitness experts there are many benefits of stretching, including enhanced fitness, ability to learn and perform skilled movements, increased mental and physical relaxation as well as body awareness, reduced risk of injury, muscle soreness and muscle tension as well as lubricating the joints to reduce arthritic pain.
