SLX Muscle Taking the time to stretch will keep you limber and maximize the effect of your
workout. To help meet your goals of exercising regularly, invest in some home
exercise equipment. If the equipment is right there, you won't be tempted to
skip your exercise routine due to lack of time. Your motivation will be right
there staring you in the face all evening and so you'll go do it. Make sure
that you drink a minimum of sixty-four ounces of water each day to insure that
your body stays properly hydrated. You should also drink an additional sixteen
ounces of water for every hour of moderate or high intensity workout that you
perform. You don't want to risk your body becoming dehydrated. Do not think of
the process of getting fit as a short-term exercise with a cut-off date.
Fitness is a long-term commitment. In fact, it should be a permanent one. When
building a fitness routine consider not just the immediate benefits but whether
or not the routine is one that can be sustained indefinitely. Fitness is for
life, not just for bikini season. Making exercise fun is one of the best ways
to stay fit. Dragging yourself to the gym or engaging in any other activities
you don't enjoy will discourage you from working out more. Find something
physically demanding that you enjoy. Joining a local sports team is a great way
to make friends, have fun, and stay in shape. Lifting weight should be limited
to an hour or less. Also, after an hour of weight lifting, muscle wasting can
occur. Therefore, you need to limit your weightlifting sessions to an hour or
less. To relieve pain from arthritis, do finger exercises. Finger exercises
work the small muscles in your fingers and hand to relieve stiffness and pain.
Although it may seem silly, doing finger exercises is an important part of any
fitness workout plan if you are an elderly or young person with arthritis. Pay
up front for the gym and your trainer! Sometimes money is the best commitment
we can make that will insure we will exercise regularly. If we have already
paid the fees for the gym and for our trainer we will be much more likely to
take advantage of the services we've paid for! Wipe down the fitness equipment
at the gym prior to use. The person, or people, before you probably left a few
germs.
