Developing A Good Workout Routine For Overall Fitness


 
Health
Exercise is a critical component of energy balance, and developing a good workout routine paves the way to overall fitness. Along with a healthy weight and nutritious diet, exercise plays an essential role in general health and well-being.

People who have been sedentary for a while, due to illness or laziness, should begin a suitable fitness program and learn to exercise properly. Whether they are trying to lose excess pounds, increase their energy levels or improve their physical fitness, a few simple tips can help them develop a plan they can live with.

Workout routines can be performed any time of day. Some people prefer early morning workouts, while others exercise during their lunch breaks. Evening workouts are best for those who have more energy later in the day. While a small, pre-workout snack can provide extra energy, people should avoid exercise immediately following a meal. This gives the body time to focus on digestion and avoid stomach upset and discomfort.

A solid warm-up is an essential part of any exercise program. Slow, gentle stretches and brisk walking warms the muscles and increases body temperature to prevent injury during a workout. A ten-minute warm-up before exercise is a good rule of thumb.

The best fitness programs include three major types of exercise: flexibility movements, aerobic activity and strength training. Stretching, range-of-motion and other flexibility exercises should be done every day. Good for the muscles, bones and joints, they are ideal choices for pre-workout warm-ups.

Flexibility exercises release tension, promote relaxation and get the body moving. Yoga and tai chi are examples of popular flexibility exercises that many people incorporate into their exercise plans.

Aerobic activities are anything that get the heart pumping and blood flowing. Also known as cardiovascular exercises, aerobic activities use the body's large muscles in a continuous, rhythmic motion. Not only do they improve heart and lung health, but they also strengthen bones and muscles, control weight, improve sleep and reduce stress.

Walking, jogging, bicycling, swimming, tennis and dancing are common aerobic activities. Most fitness organizations and agencies recommend 30 minutes of moderately intense exercise on five or more days a week. Those who are just beginning a fitness program should start slowly and gradually increase their exercise intensity and duration.

Strength training, or resistance training, is another important component of a good workout routine. Strength training builds muscle and reduces joint stress. It can be done with free weights, weight machines, resistance bands and other exercise equipment.

It is a good idea to include isometric and isotonic exercises in a strength training program. Strengthening exercises should be done every other day, after an adequate warm-up period. As with aerobic exercises, people who are new to strength training should start slowly. They can add additional weights and repetitions as their fitness levels improve.

A proper cool-down after a workout is just as important as a good warm-up before exercise. A post-workout cool-down gives the body time to recover gradually and well. A short walk and slow stretches are important cool-down activities.

Exercise depletes the body of important fluids, so it is important to keep those levels up during a workout. Water is the best option, but people who exercise for 30 minutes or more can benefit from sports drinks that replenish their water and electrolyte stores.

Most people who follow these simple exercise tips find that their workout routines quickly become habits. The longer they stick with the program, the quicker they can achieve weight loss and fitness success.
