Equipment - Fitness

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

I wonder what fitness equipment you have around your house at the moment. Maybe an old set of dumbbells, a skipping rope, some ankle weights, a mat, a bench or a fitball? And if you have this kit, is it ready for action? Has it been used recently?

It is an integral part of turning over a new leaf in your fitness regime. You plan what you want to achieve and then go out and buy the kit that will help you reach your goals. Then, for whatever reason, the kit does not get used. Maybe you do not know quite what exercises to do with it. You may be worried about getting it wrong and injuring yourself or perhaps you just do not have the space or the time for exercising at home. Then the weights gather dust, the exercise bike ends up with clothes strewn over it, and the multi-gym sits in the garage getting rusty.

Spending money on unnecessary fitness kit is frustrating and the equipment can end up haunting you and making you feel guilty for spending the money and not using it. All this can be prevented by asking yourself a few questions before you part with any cash.

If I buy this piece of fitness equipment, what will I actually do with it?

Where will I use this kit?

Where will I store this kit?

If I were to use this kit in the next seven days, when would I use it and what would I use it for?

If you cannot answer these questions quickly and easily, keep your money in your pocket. If you cannot think of what you would do with the kit, you need to do more research before you buy. You need to be able to visualize yourself putting your kit into action. Where will you be? In the bedroom, the living room, the garden? Can you imagine yourself using your kit around the house? If you cannot, chances are, you never will. You need to have somewhere handy you can store your kit. If possible it is good to get it out of sight so that your house still feels like a home and not a gym, but not so out of sight that it is out of mind as well. All home fitness kit should be hidden when you want it to be, and accessible when it is time to use it.

Finally, think about when you will be able to get started with your new kit. If you cannot find an opportunity to use it within the next seven days, the chances are that you will not be using it much beyond this first week.

Think carefully about the fitness programme you are about to embark on and what exactly you have decided it will consist of. Then you can clearly decide what kit, if any, you need to buy.

The options for exercising at home are endless and the main benefit is that you can create a time efficient workout regime with no travel time. With planning, a home fitness routine can be very effective. For more information on where to buy your kit, please refer to the fitness resources section at the end of the site.

Fitness for Seniors - Six Keys

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

The benefits of being physically fit are so numerous that it makes no sense not to attempt to develop a reasonable level of fitness. As we age, keeping fit can become more of a challenge, but the benefits are even more numerous and rewarding. Here are six keys that seniors should keep in mind as they are pursuing a fitness program:

1. Frequency How often you exercise is an important factor in a successful fitness program. For someone pursuing health related fitness rather than sports specific fitness, you dont have to exercise all that often. The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) says that excellent results can be achieved by seniors with 2 sessions per week of strength training and at least 3 days a week of aerobic exercise (walking, etc.).

2. Intensity How hard you push yourself is also important. Seniors looking for health related fitness dont have to push too hard though. For aerobic exercise you should aim to work at a heart rate of about 60 -70% of your target heart rate (220 minus your age). Strength training requires enough weight to challenge your muscles, but not so much that it makes you really uncomfortable. The no pain, no gain mentality is definitely not necessary for good results.

3. Duration This refers to how long your exercise session lasts. For good health, the requirements are very reasonable. A good target for aerobic exercise is 30 minutes per day. But, sessions of as little as 10 minutes each (if you do 3 per day) have been found to create good results. For strength training, duration is not too important. Its more important that you make sure you do a variety of exercises that target all of your major muscle groups.

4. Stretching As we get older, most of us lose some of the flexibility in our joints. Regaining as much of this flexibility as we can is extremely beneficial. I recommend to my clients that they try to do some stretching exercises every day. Even a few minutes a day can make a big difference.

5. Warm-up Everyone should include at least a few minutes of warm-ups before they start their regular exercises. Your goal with a warm-up is to simply loosen up the muscles youre about to use and get some extra blood flowing to them. For strength training a warm-up might include a set of your exercises with little or no weight. For aerobic exercise, doing the exercise at a slower rate at the beginning works well. A warm-up before stretching is also a good idea. A few calisthenics that gently move the joints youre going to stretch is all thats needed.

6. Cool Down This is overlooked by many people. The principle is pretty much the opposite of a warm-up. When you are through exercising and increasing your heart rate and the blood flow to your muscles, you need to slow everything down again. Make sure you do some movements to slowly bring your body back down to a more normal level before you stop completely.

Using these keys will help you to develop an exercise program that is both beneficial and easy for you to follow. The results that you will start to feel in just a few short months will make the effort well worth it. Keep in mind that an exercise program to improve your health is something you must plan on doing the rest of your life. And you are worth it.

Tips for Diet Fitness

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

Diet Fitness is the only way to go if you want to lose weight and you want your body to be healthier. Too many people need to lose weight and get fit, but dont make time in their life for it. Instead, they try fad diets and miracle pills that claim to take off the weight without any effort. The only thing these people are losing is their money. The truth is dieting and getting fit require dedication, changes to your current routine, and getting more exercise.

To lose weight, you need to use up more calories each day than you consume. If you consume more than you use then the extra calories are stored as fat. The most effective way to lose weight and get fit is to reduce the amount of calories you consume and to increase the amount of physical activity you engage in daily. Diet fitness involves a combination of the two will help you drop the pounds, get fit, feel better physically and mentally, and reduce your chances of heart related health issues.

People often view a diet as starvation and set themselves up to fail from the very beginning. Diet fitness is about giving your body what it needs without feeling deprived. If you consume large amounts of sugary foods including junk food and soda, then a great deal of your daily calories are empty calories that give you nothing. Replace that soda with water or sugar free tea. Replace that bag of potato chips with pretzels. Instead of grabbing a chocolate bar grab and apple. Diet fitness means you get to eat, you just need to make some drastic changes to your eating habits.

Diet fitness isnt easy. It if was, everyone would be doing it. The first few weeks are the hardest. As you start to feel better because of the foods you are consuming and the exercise you are getting, you will become very excited and motivated to continue doing it. Most people dont get to that point because they have very little willpower. I am telling you now your body will start going through withdrawals for those unhealthy foods because it has been programmed to get them for so long.

Diet fitness can happen if you are dedicated to succeeding. It doesnt mean you cant ever have a slice of chocolate cake again or some ice cream. It just means you cant have them every day and that you need to eat better and get more physical activity in your life. Completely removing such favorite foods from your life will lead your diet fitness plan into failure.

To feel better, live longer, and look your best, diet fitness needs to be implemented into your lifestyle. While these changes may seem drastic at first they will become routine over time. Make sure you plan a menu and stick to it. Plan an exercise routine as well and stick to it. You will see results and be glad you did it. A diet fitness plan is the best give you can give yourself.

The Little Known Secret To Weight Loss - Visualization

Health Aspects of Obesity - Health

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

In declaring obesity a disease the NIB signaled a new approach toward obesity. Medical experts no longer regard being obese as a simple failure of will power. Instead, obesity is considered a chronic disease, such as hypertension or diabetes. In 1994 weight loss experts advocated “a conceptual house cleaning” in the way medical doctors and the general public think about weight. The result is new knowledge and a different attitude about the causes and treatments of obesity.

One aspect of obesity that has not changed is its medical consequences. Morbidity occurs more frequently and with greater severity and mortality occurs at an earlier age among obese people compared with those of normal weight. Obesity coexists with or is a precursor of chronic diseases that kill Americans. It is highly correlated with coronary heart disease and stroke. One third of all causes of hypertension are thought to be caused by obesity. It is a major risk factor for some forms of cancer; it predisposes men to cancer of the colon, rectum, and prostate and women to cancer of the ovaries, uterus, and breasts. It increases the body’s resistance to insulin and is a leading cause of non insulin dependent diabetes.

The risk of diabetes doubles in people who are mildly overweight, is five times higher in the moderately overweight, and is 10 times higher in the severely obese person. Insulin resistance may be the means by which overweight causes cardiovascular diseases. In insulin resistance the body’s cells do not respond normally to insulin, and this may contribute to high blood pressure and high triglyceride and cholesterol levels. Obesity contributes to the formation of gallstones; respiratory disorders; degenerative changes in the joints, particularly those of the knees and hips; and low back pain. Complications following surgery occur more often in overweight people compared with those who are not overweight. Wounds don’t heal as well or as fast. Infections are more common.

For many people shortness of breath is the first sign of strain placed on the body by excess fat. As fat accumulates, it crowds the space occupied by organs. Some people cannot sit comfortably because of fat accumulation in their abdomens. In a sitting position the individual’s lungs have limited space in which to expand.

In addition to the medical hazards, it is not uncommon for obese people to suffer psychological stress, social discrimination, and reduced income. They pay higher premiums for health insurance or are denied coverage, obese children are often ridiculed by their slim peers, and armed forces personnel are forced out of the military if they gain weight beyond an acceptable level.

The link between obesity and chronic diseases is well established, but evidence has emerged indicating that the distribution of fat is equally important. Studies have confirmed that abdominal fat is associated with a higher rate of heart attack and stroke than fat distributed around the hips and thighs .

In summary the health risks and complications associated with excess weight are associated with premature death. When overweight people lose weight, their health usually improves.

The Secret To Fitness Success

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

Call me whatever you want. Personal Trainer, Sports Performance Coach, Strength and Conditioning Specialistall are just variations on a theme. Regardless, I have achieved a level of authority by devoting myself to the study of human physiology and how it responds to various forms of exercise. Its what I do. Its who I am.

Before I got where I am now, I was like most people. Probably a lot like you. You might be an athlete, a fitness-enthusiast, or just “testing the exercise waters” with some exercises at home. Youre also probably downright confused by all the conflicting information you read in various books and magazines and see on TV.

How many diets do we really need? Can you really flatten you abs in just 8 minutes? How can some little plastic gadget that I can buy for 4 easy payments of $19.99 make me look like the model on TV?

As I look back on my own fitness education, I keep saying to myself

If I only knew then what I know now!

Havent we all said that to ourselves at one time or another?

Wouldn’t our lives be totally different if we could have taken advantage of the advanced wisdom we gain through experience?

Theres a saying that I heard a long time ago when I was a kid

“Knowledge is what we gain from our experiences, Wisdom is what we gain from someone elses experiences

It never struck me how powerful a message that is until I really started to pursue my own personal fitness goals.

Fitness is much like any other form of education. You can take the harder road and try to learn it all yourself, or you can take the easier road seek out a teacher. Someone whos been there before. Studied the details. Knows what works and what doesn’t.

In this case, were talking about a personal fitness trainer.

Now Im not saying you cant get to where you want to go without a personal trainer. That would be silly. Everyday, many people successfully achieve their fitness goals.

Unfortunately, in the reality of the world we live inmost fail. Not because they dont make a valiant effort, but rather their efforts are misdirected by the bad information provided in the popular media.

Recently, I sat down and tried to list all the possible advantages a fitness enthusiast or an athlete can gain from hiring a personal trainer. I had a pretty good list going, but as I looked it over (and sprained my shoulder patting myself on the back in celebration), I realized that this was MY list of advantages. I was looking at things from the perspective of a fitness expert. I dont see things as you do.

So I asked the other expertsmy clients.

I asked them what the advantages were to hiring a personal trainer. Here are the top 7 advantages they gave for hiring a personal trainer:

You give me an objective eye.

This came from a client who has spent some time educating himself a bit. He had already achieve a better than average level of fitness and set many personal fitness records, but he wanted to get to the next level. He needed the outside perspective. He understands that even the best need a coach. Tiger Woods has a coach. Michael Jordan had a coach. We all need a coach to remind us to live up to our potential.

You make me work out when I dont want to.

Geez, you read that and youd think Im some kind of ogre. Cant you just see me standing over my fitness clients with my whip (hey, no dirty thoughts allowed!)? What she really meant was that by hiring me, she was more compliant to her exercise and eating programs. Keeping regular training appointments kept her on track. After all, consistency is the key to making lifestyle adjustments like regular exercise.

You make me accountable for doing my best.

I thought this was kinda neat. This came from a client that I dont see every week. Shes been at it a long time. She also knows that if she doesnt keep up with our predetermined program, Ill know it. She takes exceptional pride in accepting the challenges I set for her and achieving her goals. She also mentioned that if she knew I wasn’t going to be there at our assigned date and time, shed be on the couch eating potato chips and drinking Pepsi.

I feel totally safe to push myself as hard as I need to.

I really liked hearing this response. Im very protective of my clients and take great pride in teaching proper exercise mechanics. Because of this, my injury rate sits at a comfortable 0%. Nothing is more disappointing than to hear of someone getting injured while trying to improve their aesthetic appeal and their health.

You motivate me.

This came from one of my athletes. We get along great because I tend to look at things from an athletic perspective. I know what hes going through and I know when to push his buttons to get the performance he needs. I think hes going to be great, and I take great pride in being a part of his development.

I learned faster.

This lady is a real go-getter. She does her homework when it comes to her personal health issues. She always says that she could have gotten to where she is now, but thanks to me, she got there faster than she ever expected. Thats quite a compliment.

I got faster results.

Sometimes I take on clients who have attempted to reach their fitness goals on their own as well as those who have worked with another trainer. This client worked with another trainer. Now I know that fitness enthusiasts who seek out the help of a personal fitness trainer are more successful than those who try to go at it alone. I also know that theres solid research that agrees (Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2000 Jun;32(6): 1175-84.). Its just nice to hear clients say that.

I find it fascinating that in every aspect of our lives, the impact of one person can make a tremendous difference. That person is typically a leader, a pastor, a teacher, or a coach. Your personal fitness success is no different. If you have tried and failed more than twice at the same task, you need to get some help and guidance.

Don’t just say that you tried, say that you did it!

What is Fitness-Yoga?

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Yoga is often a form of exercise that is associated with meditation, breathing exercises or seemingly impossible positioning of the body in awkward looking poses. However, there may be more to it as everyone now seems to be doing a different kind of Yoga: Fitness Yoga.

Though, this new exercise trend may seem new, Fitness-Yoga is actually more than 5, 000 years old.

In addition, its cousin, the very efficient Pilates, was discovered as long ago as the 1920s.

Now, it must be stressed that for fitness, Yoga is a pretty good choice both for the body and mind.

With its Sun Salutations and several poses, ranging from the simple to the elaborate, a practitioner seeking the use of Yoga for Fitness, is endowed with strength, flexibility and immense toning.

In addition, Yogas unique breathing exercises are quite sufficient and effective aerobic exercises all into themselves.

Furthermore, for more fitness options, combining the use of Yoga with other types of body-weight exercises, such as calisthenics could also be a very wise choice for optimal fitness and health.

Several people are discovering these benefits and they range from athletes, to dancers to body-builders.

It has been said that old East-Indian Wrestlers and Yoga Sages have swapped ideas for fitness training programs and the results today are the Yoga-Esque Hindu Push-ups, Squats and Back-Bridge.

These 3 core exercises for the workout program of Fitness Guru and Author, Matt Furey. In addition, even religious monks have combined some specific Yoga Poses to form the acclaimed 5-Tibetan Rites.

So it is quite easy to see that Yogas versatility, benefits and styles are indeed gems for fitness training, perhaps all you need is a trial to confirm this for yourself.

What Can I Learn About Womens Health And Fitness Training Options

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

There are many different options for women and women’s fitness training that are available. A lot depends on what your fitness goals are. This will also encompass how long you are giving yourself or have to get into shape.

How much weight you are looking to lose and if you are looking just to tone up or lose weight too. But with all the options that are available for women’s fitness training, it should be fairly easy to find one that will suit your personal needs.

One option that women tend to really like for women’s fitness training are aerobics classes. Your local gym or sometimes a YMCA center usually offers these. These are great for losing weight, because the fat burns off a lot easier with aerobics. However if you are looking to tone up you will need to add some weight training to the mix as well.

Your best bet is to find a class that you can enjoy and that will work for you. A lot of the classes will offer lower impact and higher impact varieties, so choose which one would be easier for you. All in all there are a pretty wide variety of classes to choose from and you are bound to find one that will work for you and your fitness goals and needs.

Something else that is a good option for women’s fitness training is a gym. In fact there are even all women’s gyms that are out there, if you prefer. This can help you with your confidence, not having to worry about men being around and such.

This is also great because a lot of the exercises and equipment are geared specifically towards women and their needs. You may also want to choose a gym that will allow you take advantage of a personal trainer. This can help you get a better workout that is just for your needs.

Yet another option for women’s fitness training is purchasing home gym equipment. This can be a little expensive but worth it in the long run. This is mostly for those who don’t have the time to get out to a gym on a regular basis. Home gyms are also a good option for those who don’t feel comfortable working out in front of other people. There are many good ones out there and even some that may be geared specifically towards women and their personal workout needs.

When it comes to women’s fitness training there are definitely a few options out there to choose from. Once again it is really up to you which one will work best for your fitness goals and needs. You will also need to take into consideration your budget and time you have to spend on a workout routine. How fast you have to get into shape will also effect your decision as well. But whichever option you choose you are well on your way to a healthier and happier life.

Setting Fitness Goals

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Many people make the mistake of setting their fitness goals too high when they embark on an exercise program. This leads them to abandon their plans out of frustration and impatience. Setting manageable goals is key to maintaining a fitness program over time.

If you have been completely sedentary you need to start out your fitness regimen by working towards small and realistic goals. These can be as simple as walking around the block once a day for a week, and adding another block each subsequent week until they reach the 30 minutes recommended by health professionals. A few sessions with a personal trainer can help you set reasonable goals for weight-bearing exercise like weight training. In the beginning focus on overall conditioning rather than building muscle. Check with staff at your gym or fitness center for recommendations about what exercise classes are right for your current fitness level.

When you’re just starting out, it’s easy to make rash promises like exercising every day. It’s hard for even people in top condition to make time each and every day for training. Start off three or four days a week and build up from there. If you’re taking up a new sport like swimming, skiing or golf, consider taking lessons with a professional so that you develop good habits from the beginning.

If you’ve been getting moderate exercise your goals can be a little more ambitious. If you’re walking the recommended 30 minutes per day, why not add hand weights to your routine? This might also be the time to consider adding more weight to your lifting or taking an intermediate fitness course. You may also be ready to speak to a personal trainer about beginning to work on building specific muscle groups.

Once you’ve attained a high level of fitness, then it’s time for some serious goal setting. Plan to run a marathon or participate in a 5K walking event. There are many of these events run to benefit charity, giving a double benefit of both funds raised and health benefits to participants. When preparing for an event of this nature, return to your early habit of setting small, realistic goals. Add miles to your run on a weekly basis until you are able to complete the full distance. Speak with your trainer to establish a regular schedule of weight-bearing exercise that will help improve your stamina and flexibility.

Walk 10,000 Steps to Improve Health and Fitness

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Its a fact, America is becoming obese at an alarming rate and the rest of the world is following close behind. We are eating more (and more of the wrong stuff) and exercising less or getting no exercise at all. Our health is in steep decline and doctor and hospital visits are at all time highs. Just a brisk 30-minute walk a day can begin to turn that around.

You name it, we have it, and its getting worse. Heart and cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, stroke, out of control blood sugar levels, diabetes, obesity, and more. The U.S. Surgeon General recommends getting at least 20-30 minutes of moderate activity each day and many of us are falling far short of even that.

Studies show the average person takes about 3000 to 5000 steps a day, and some even much less. Lets face it, we just do not get the exercise our ancestors did a hundred or so years ago and we tend to eat more refined foods. For some of us, most of steps we take are from the easy chair in front of the TV to the fridge so we can fill up on snacks. For others, like me, we sit at a computer all day as part of our jobs.

Many fitness experts recommend we walk 10,000 steps a day to maintain our weight and overall good health. 10,000 steps are approximately 5 miles, give or take depending on the length of your stride. You will need to purchase and wear a pedometer to count how many steps you take each day. Follow the directions that usually come with the pedometer. Do this for a week or two and you will get a good average step count. Your goal is to reach 10,000 or more steps each day. There is nothing magical about 10,000, but it will put you in the right ballpark.

As a general rule, a person will burn about 100 calories walking a mile, depending on age, size, and fitness level. The heavier you are, the more calories you will burn.

Become creative on ways to increase your steps. At work, go for walks at lunchtime. Go for walks with your spouse or children. Walk the dog. Walk to the store instead of driving, or park at the far end of the parking lot. Use the stairs instead of the elevator. For me, I take brisk 2-mile walks around the neighborhood twice a day everyday (aerobic walking). Just do whatever works best for you, but do it! You will need good walking shoes and socks to prevent injury when walking for exercise (like aerobic walking).

Go to your favorite search engine and type in 10,000 steps to learn more about this life saving, life changing program. The information is abundant.

Fitness of the Body

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Bodily fitness is being able to deal with and handle the daily stresses of life, good physical and mental health, especially when maintained by proper diet, exercise, and habits. Nutrition refers to the nurturing of our body, in our ability to keep it healthy and functioning as it is supposed to do. Our ability to provide the body with all the necessary food, vitamins, and minerals so that we continue to thrive in our daily life processes is a part of overall fitness. Fitness refers to the condition of good physical, mental, and spiritual health.

Fitness of the body occurs when all the body processes, physical and mental are functioning as the peak levels What does it take to achieve complete body fitness? It requires more than simply taking a trip to the gym, or a walk in the park.

Many factors come into play when we consider our bodys fitness. The daily intake of food, vitamins, and water are absolute necessities, and most often the items thought about. What about the conditioning of our body to deal with life each day?

Does our physical exercise have anything to do with the fitness of our body? Absolutely. For one condition without regard to the other, is not a complete whole. The body includes all of our physical processes, our mind, and our physical being as a whole. When we give thought to the fitness of the body, most often we contemplate our physical condition as it applies to our cardiovascular needs and our weight. But our bodies are much more than heart and a nice figure. What about all of our other organs? Are they fit? How do we maintain a fitness of the entirety? Daily physical exercise that benefits the body as a whole, taking time to rest and restore what has been depleted from our body over the course of the day, and making sure that we adequately supply our entire body with the nutrition necessary for healthy function.

If we use our resources wisely and educate our selves about the things our body needs to maintain fitness, over the course of our life, it isnt a difficult thing to attain. But you cannot abuse your body for years, and then hope for immediate results in trying to attain overall fitness. It didnt become unfit overnight, and it wont become fit again that quickly.

Proper attention to the physical needs of each part of your body results in the fitness of the whole. Every part of your physical body exists to work in unison with another part of the body. Two hands are necessary for optimal functioning of the limbs, two feet, two eyes, etc. The physical body is designed to work better than any machine invented to date. It is more complex and powerful than any piece of equipment we have on the market. It takes more abuse than believable, and continues to operate, even without the daily requirements being met, for several days. It is a fascinating machine, as machines go. But it is an even more fascinating subject, when we choose to care for our bodies as the temples they really are. They house our mind and soul, and when the body is fit, it does its job tremendously well.
