5 Stupid Things Healthy People Do

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

You are not a stupid person. Not by any means.

In fact, it's my guess that you're healthier than most.

You probably exercise regularly. You watch what you eat. You keep up-to-date on the latest health concerns. You don't binge on sugar.

And you never – ever – eat fast food. Well, almost never.

 

What you don't know could hurt you

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

How much thought do you put into what you eat?

If you want to get into great shape then you'll be interested to know that 80% of your fitness results are attributed to your diet.

In our fast-paced society, eating is often done with little or no thought as to what exactly it is being ingested. Excess body fat is a direct outcome of this hurried, poor nutrition. Even if you have the best intentions with your diet, you are likely frustrated and fed up with extra pounds.

Hamilton Personal Trainers Tell you…Warm Up & Cool Down

Monday, July 27th, 2009

WARM UP:  The purpose of the warm up is to increase body temperature, increase synovial (lubricating) fluids in the joints, and to decrease the chance of injury. In addition, muscle and tendon elasticity are also improved during the cimg06063warm up. The warm up should include easy to moderately intense cardiovascular activity for 3 to 15 minutes (eg: walking, cycling or stepping) and a flexibility exercise for each muscle group to be trained that day. During the warm up, heart rate should gradually rise to approximately 50 to 60 % of maximum heart rate.
At the onset of light cardiovascular exercise during the warm up, the metabolic rate increases, so body temperature rises, which causes you to sweat. In addition, blood flow to the exercising muscles increases and the muscles extract more oxygen from the blood. This results in more efficient energy production in the muscle.l
As the warm up continues and heart rate is gradually increased, the body begins the process of fat cell mobilization. Depending on your body's efficiency at burning calories, it can take 12 to 15 minutes or more of continuous, moderately intense cardiovascular exercise before your body begins to burn fat.
