Physical Activity

Almost a million years ago, hunting and fishing were considered activities that consumed a lot of energy. To be physically active does not require one to be registered in a gym or run 5 miles on the racing track. When instructing in Huntington Beach personal training I try to teach my clients that physical activity can be considered as any kind of movement either natural or planned that a person does for a determined period of time. It increases your energy levels and it can also burn calories, depending on your weight. If you weigh 250 pounds, you will consume more energy than a person that weighs 180 pounds. Another thing that can alter the amount of calories burned while doing a physical activity is the time you spend on the movement and also, the rhythm you follow. For example, walking 5 miles per hour can burn more calories than walking 1.5 miles per hour.

In my Orange County Boot Camp I try to make people realize that physical activity can mean doing some every day movements like walking, riding a bike, and running up the stairs, even shopping and doing everyday chores in the house, especially if they are done frequently. Moderate physical activity does not increase appetite and can even result in a 98% loss of body fat when combined with a healthy diet.

Some subcategories on this field can be exercise and sports, by exercise we refer to any planned body activity done in your free time with the purpose of maintaining a fit body and healthy lifestyle. A sport is a specialized activity that requires training and is performed at different intensity levels; its main purpose is generally competitive in nature.

If you suffer from any kind of condition, such as diabetes, physical activity should be a priority in your day. It is also a great alternative for children, in the US, 25% of children are suffering from obesity and there are simple ways of dealing with this issue. If your kid does not like sports or is very lazy and in a difficult age, there are different games, including video games, you can enjoy as a family that involve physical activity. Children should get used to an active life, being physically active can help their self esteem and learning abilities as well as developing and maintaining healthy and strong muscle and bones. Enjoy the outside together as a family, you can plan an adventure in the woods, or plan a vacation that involve outdoor activities like water sports, hiking or walking around a big city.

Physical activity is not harmful in any way; the human body is made for moving, and if you don’t take it out for a walk, a dance, a spin, any kind of movement, the result could very well be a premature death. Walking at a fast pace for only 20 minutes a day can translate to losing at least 10 pounds in one year and contribute to a healthier cardiovascular lifestyle. At my Newport Beach Fitness Bootcamp I teach clients to consider physical activity a solution to fighting laziness, boredom and being out of shape. Stop with the excuses and take advantage of your time, it is never too late to make the decision of having a healthy body and heart.

So put it on your To Do list, get up, and get outdoors if you can and bring a friend, family member or loved one. Because you certainly want those you love to live a long and healthy life too.

Balance your Weight with Weights

There are many intricacies to physical training. Physical training is generally used by sportspersons and athletes to spruce up their physical and bodily energy and tolerance levels. Physical Training is also used popularly by many average individuals to achieve physical strength and power levels at par with sports persons and athletes. At my Long Beach personal trainer gym I have my Physical Trainers recommend certain specific work outs and exercises that can increase the energy and strength levels of individuals at above par levels. This is the type of physical training that is absolutely necessary for sports persons and athletes who require more than average power and agility to maintain a leading edge in their profession. There are such specific training methods adopted by Physical Trainers called as ‘Resistance Training’ that give maximum and more than average physical fitness and strengths. One of the best methods of Resistance Training recommended by Physical Trainers is working out through the usage of Weights. Weight based exercise methods are advantageous both for men as well as women. The world over, completion in every field is in its increase. People can be seen struggling due to want of time, in any aspect in life. However, the need for physical exercises as a routine in every human being’s life is more on the increase. People would rather prefer labour saving exercise patterns such as resistance exercises (Weight based exercise patterns etc.) to other laborious ones that not only need more amount of work outs, but are also time consuming.
The primary advantage of using Weights for Physical Exercises is to maintain the individual’s physical strength. Every small day to day activity of an individual requires the usage of muscles. It is based on the strength of muscles that a person’s strength and agility can be ascertained. Maintenance of muscular strength can be achieved only through constant usage of activity in the muscular composition through physical activities and exercises. Known as the Newport Beach personal trainer I remind my clients that usage of Weights during physical work outs and exercises increase the usage of muscles thus in turn increasing their strength.

One of the other main advantages of using Weights during work outs is to increase the strength and usage of the connecting tissues of muscles, called the Tendons. The use of Weights during exercises does not have any risks such as injuries to muscles or bones. It just strengthens the muscles and their connecting Tendon tissues to render more physical strength and agility. Quite a significant advantage of using Weights for exercises is in prevention of the disease Osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a condition where bones get brittle and subsequently fractured. Generally impact exercises such as jogging and jumping increase the strengths in the bones of legs and thighs. However, the quite common occurrence of Osteoporosis is mainly in the wrists, where effect of impact exercise such as jumping or jogging has no effect. Whereas, the main advantage of Resistance Training is that it induces strength to the individual’s entire skeletal set up. Hence, occurrence of ailments such as Osteoporosis can be drastically reduced through Weight based exercise.

Weight based exercises are more of an ideal method to burn your extra calories. As a personal trainer Costa Mesa, I know that the more you work out with weights, the more calories you are burning and the more they translate to muscular conversion. Hence, weight based exercise burn more calories than any other form of exercise. It does not stop with just this. One of the most significant advantages of Weight based exercises is that it induces better and healthy cardio vascular functions than any other form of exercise. Hence, Weight based exercise work outs can be equated to any other form of cardio vascular exercise and are as equally benefitting to the individual’s cardio vascular activity.
