There are all kinds of ways you can work exercise into your life. You can workout anywhere doing all sort of things.
Playing with children, for example is a great way to get some exercise. When you get down on the floor and play “horsey”, you are giving yourself a heck of a workout – and it is fun for the kids!
Throw a ball around in the backyard and really get into it! Jump on a trampoline, or just play tag! Exercise like this not only give you the physical benefits, it can remind you of the joy of youth and put a real smile on your face!
At work, take the stairs instead of the elevator. When you park in a parking lot, park as far away from the door as possible so you have to walk further.
Use your imagination and you will find ways to exercise almost anywhere!
Many people love the idea of being in a gym surrounded by sweaty people who are lifting weights and using the stair-stepping machine. If this is what you like, by all means, get into the gym.
Weight training gives you the opportunity to sculpt your body by pushing your muscles toward working harder than they normally would.
We suggest that you get the advice of someone in the gym like the trainer or owner to give you some exercises to start out with. They will be the experts in the field for you and will know what works when you’re just beginning a weight training program. They can also help guide you when it’s time for you to “step up” your regimen.
Aerobics classes are another great way to get a terrific workout. You can find classes like these in many, many places, but mostly in gyms and workout studios. Keep in mind that there will be a fee to take these classes, but it might very well be worth it to have the camaraderie that comes with other people sweating along with you!
We highly recommend looking into taking water aerobics. Exercising in the water has so many benefits. You have less stress and strain on your joints, plus the natural resistance of the water will work your muscles more than if you were taking a class “on land”.
Water aerobics can be done by just about anyone – young and old alike. It’s a great alternative to strength training and you won’t have the problem of excessive sweating that many of us just hate! You’ll get an amazing workout and it’ll be fun too!
Many people – the Hollywood elite included – are beginning to advocate Pilates as a very effective weight loss method. This exercise regimen was developed in the early 20th century, but has just now come to global popularity.
Pilates is more than exercise program, it is based on the principles of many different types of movements. It takes some of its movements from yoga, acrobats, stretching, and more. Plus, Pilates concentrates a lot on the mind as an exercise tool.
We can’t tell you how to do Pilates because it’s so involved. That would be a whole other book to write! But there are many helpful tools out there that can help you with a Pilates program if you think that the route you want to go. Look for online web sites, videos, and classes in your area. Once you learn the basic movements, you can then practice them on your own!
So now we know about exercising in order to lose weight, but let’s get back to the most important hurdle in trying to lose weight – the food!

Building muscles for beginners. Part 2
At the beginning the muscle builders are not in condition to feel a body and therefore often exceed a measure in loadings. As the result of it is a likely condition of a muscular exhaustion. To manage it you need efforts. Even if you use special medicines you can come back to weight training not earlier than through a month and a half. To avoid tiredness, you should follow the recommendations:
1. to take a bath or a hot shower. This procedure increases a blood circulation and allows muscles relax;
2. After training it is necessary to do self-massage and, if it is possible, deep a entire body massage (at least once a week);
3. After excessive loadings, it is necessary to begin training with easy weight. Do it no more than 1-2 approaches in each exercise.
Serious traumas in bodybuilding happen seldom, however it is necessary to understand rules, that your training was not subject of pointless risk to your colleagues or your lives.
First of all, a crossbeam has to have locks. Each lock weighs approximately 2,5 kilogram. You have to take in the account this weight for calculation of entire weight.
Secondly, you have to use racks. If you carry out the strength program, be necessarily insured by the partner and the trainer. Be especially cautious on the performance of presses.
For your best achievements you have to pay serious attention to food you consume. In general opinion a main meal of bodybuilders consists of mostly from meat. It is not true. Many of bodybuilders do not use meat products at all.
They deliver protein to an organism with milk, beans and nuts. If you do not have anything against a beef, chicken meat or fish, they necessarily should be present at your daily meals. On a regular basis you have to eat fruits and vegetables. Also you have to include in daily norm the products containing vegetative fats (for example, nuts).
High-quality the food, you have to eat, necessarily has to contain as much vitamins and micro elements as possible. Try to make food various and eat more than 3 times a day, 5-6 times even better.
Drink mineral water during the day, approximately, 2-3 litres depends of your body weight. Avoid white bread, cakes, biscuits etc., sweet dishes, fats, alcohol, hot spices and too much salt.
Building muscles mass will not be without high-quality rest. It is necessary to pay special attention to a sleep time. If you do not manage to have a sleep normally before day of training, you can expect over training.
In an initial stage of bodybuilding it is better to forget about evening temptations watching TV within several months and go to bed in time. You should understand how important to have a high-quality a sleep time.
There are two types of warm-ups in bodybuilding. First one is before the beginning of training: jumps, straightening, knee-bend with jumps, etc. The second one is during of exercise program. Warm-up is necessary to prepare muscles for exercise with weights. Attempt to make exercise on a "cold" muscle usually ends with a trauma.
The bodybuilder adds approximately 3-4 kilogram of muscle mass a year within first two-three years of trainings. Later it is no more, than 2-3 kilogram: speeds of increase in muscles mass are slowdown. Growth of muscles depends on many factors and it is difficult to force.
So if you are a new and just thinking to build your muscle mass you have to understand all rules of bodybuilding, be careful with weight training and better to start with local place with professional training, who help you with making your individual program and support you with correct workouts.

Building muscle for beginners. Part 1
Bodybuilding is a system of physical exercises with various weights (dumbbells, burdening, a crossbeam, etc.), having for an object a muscle development. You can do muscle training exercises in gym or outdoors as well as with a gymnastic simulator at your own home.
The dominating bodybuilding tendency is to give body beauty due to increase vigour of muscles. This is some kind of physical preparation, which spread wide enough among people, leading a healthy life style, especially among men. Though there are a sufficient number of women as well.
Bodybuilding is a dangerous kind of physical sport, and experts advise to build muscle mass strictly following by major principles, especially at the foundation stage.
Constant increase in load of weights is the best method to increase muscle mass. There can appear an additional problem such as an increase of progressing influence of the training to the muscles. It is connected with their adaptation to loading, and muscular growth slowdown.
To resolve this problem need to decrease a break between approaches. If for the beginning an interval between approaches takes about 60 seconds or more, then you have to decrease it till 10-15 seconds. For those, who just have begun to build muscle mass, the increase in quantity of recurrences in the approach is the first method of progress.
It is necessary to train three times a week every other day. The one day between workouts will be enough that the body had a break and strengths have completely come back. Then, depending on your success, the quantity of trainings will depend on an exercise program. But there is no necessity to hurry event. Standard initial training lasts 40 - 45 minutes.
It is necessary to carry out the particular training program no more than one and a half month, because you have to avoid accustoming muscles to exercises. However, there are exceptions. If we speak about beginners, then it is necessary to change the exercise program as often as possible. Otherwise it leads to boredom and physical exhaustion.
Correctly to do muscle training exercise means to place only those receptions, which are stipulated in your program. For example, if you look at the beginners, how they do rises on a biceps. They do it with a big degree of difficulty and they start to help itself by a body or legs. It cannot be done by this way. It is necessary to choose such weight which allows overcoming it only by strength of biceps.
Other criterion of performance correctness is to do it without pushes and delays. Any sharp movement has inertia which "eats" a part of weight.
