Resumen del manual


> Aerobic/ Strength Exercise Vigorous aerobic exercise is the core of your workout program. The intensity of your exercise must be strenuous enough to raise your heart rate into your target zone. This is usually between 60 and 90% of your maximum heart rate. Cycling, or any exercise done in this range, is usually called aerobic exercise. It means your body, your heart, and the various exercising muscles are working at a level at which oxygen can be utilized. Exercising with a heart rate monitor allows you to constantly receive visible feedback (and on some models audible feedback) as to what your heart rate is while exercising, and allows you to stay within your selected target heart rate zone. IDENTIFYING YOUR FITNESS GOALS 13 14 GUIDELINES So if the Surgeon General's findings are not convincing evidence enough to keep most us exercising on a consistent basis, what is? Scientists are finding that the process of beginning, increasing and ultimately sticking to an exercise program is a combination of two elements: finding the right incentives and building a habit. And, as we will see, these two motivational factors are connected, but distinct. Focusing on the positive is one of the best incentives to exercise. Avoid looking at exercise as a way to fix something that's wrong with your body. Instead, focus on your successes. Pat yourself on the back each time you've made it though a workout. Thrive on the energy that exercising gives you. Reward yourself with a dinner out, after you have reached a certain weight loss goal, or buy yourself a new workout outfit. With these rewards, you'll go back for more, and your body will show results. Don't view exercise as punishment. Don't look at exercise as something that has to be tackled because you are out of shape. Think of exercise as an investment in your health, your physical looks and your mental outlook. As you run, walk or lift weights, concentrate on the positive energy being generated within your body and the renewed sense of life and wellness you feel. The basics of any fitness program are planning and setting goals. Goal setting and formulating a plan are the most clear ways of establishing a consistent program of exercise; they are also a powerful form of direction and motivation. Take some time to think about what will help you begin your exercise program. Write these down in your daily planner or diary. Goals provide a sense of purpose and incen- tive that can drive you to your intended destination. However, for goals to be effective they need to be realistic. Motivation will be strengthened only if it's possible to reach your objectives. Consider this: Your mind and body will respond better to exercise if you start with 20-minute sessions, three times a week, rather than an hour session four times per week. Once the sessions become a routine, aim for 30 minutes, then increase from there. The most important thing in any exercise program is to do your best to keep progressing, backslid- ing as little as possible and getting back on the horse just as fast as possible if you fall off. Try to anticipate lapses: If a crazy workday looms, get up early and squeeze in a short ride on a stationary bicycle so that you've achieved something even if it isn't your regular workout routine. When on a business trip, stay in a hotel that has an onsite workout facility. Exercise is one of life's joys. It energizes – giving you a sense of well-being and accomplishment and keeps you healthy and fit. There is great pleasure in being able to set goals, accept challenges, and push yourself to a better lifestyle of health and fitness. No matter what your reason for exercising – to lose weight, to get fit, or to feel better –- motivating yourself to exercise on a regular basis requires changing your behavior. > Make Exercise A Habit The key to a successful fitness program is getting your body to do what your mind knows it should. Here are six mental strategies to help keep you focused on your fitness goals. 1. Clarify why you want to exercise. If you want to gain strength – is it to swim more laps, or to tone-up your body. By understanding and detailing your goals, you will be better able to stay motivated. 2. Vary your workout. To make your routine more enjoyable, vary it once in a while. Supplement your indoor cycling with outdoor cycling and strength training. These activities make exercise more interesting and increase your fitness level by making you utilize different muscle groups. 3. Focus on the positive. Avoid looking at your exercise program as a way to fix something that's wrong with your body. Instead focus on your successes. Congratulate yourself after each workout. Thrive on the energy that exercising gives you. GUIDELINES Varied training in all three of these zones will add to increased levels of fitness and improved per- formance and add more energy to your life. "Most training programs use a combination of training intensities to increase performance capacity," ...
