You live in your skin and know how your body feels
and works best.That is why you should take responsibility for managing your own
fitness-training program.Knowing your limits and capabilities is key to setting
goals for physical fitness improvement. Smart training means observing some
well-recognized guidelines:
- Progression As you have seen, increasing intensity
and/or duration by 10 percent at regular intervals is a good idea.
- Warm-up always take a
few minutes to warm up your muscles to reduce your chances of injury. Your warm-up
should include some running in place or slow jogging,stretching,and calisthenics.
It should last five to seven minutes and should occur just before the CR or
muscular endurance and strength part of the workout.
- Stretching Critical to
improving your flexibility, stretching increases your overall fitness and
reduces the chance of muscle injury. After exercising, you should cool down by
walking and stretching until your heartbeat reaches 100 bpm and heavy sweating
stops.
- Mechanics concentrate on
your form when exercising. Maintain intensity levels, but don’t let your form suffer.
You will not improve by doing exercises or repetitions incorrectly—you only
increase your chances of injury.
- Healthy Diet you’ve heard that “You are what you eat.” Food is your source of strength and energy. What you eat will dramatically affect your ability to maintain and improve your overall fitness.
