Exercise guidelines
Building Muscle and Gaining Weight
Unlike aerobic exercise, which emphasizes endurance training, anaerobic
exercise focuses on strength training. A gradual weight gain can occur while
building the size and strength of muscles. While developing muscle mass, your
body adapts to the stress placed upon it. You can modify your diet to include
foods such as meat, fish and vegetables.
These foods help muscles recover and replenish important nutrients after a
strenuous workout.
Muscle Strength and Endurance
To achieve the greatest benefit from exercise, it is important to develop an
exercise program that allows you to work all of the major muscle groups
equally.
To increase muscles strength; follow this principle: Increasing resistance and
maintaining the number of repetitions of an exercise results in increased
muscle strength.
To tone your body, follow the principle: Decreasing resistance plus increasing
the number of repetitions of an exercise results in increased body tone.
Once you feel comfortable with an exercise, you can change the resistance, the
number of repetitions, or the speed at which you do the exercise. It is not
necessary to change all three variables. For example, let’s say that you are
training at 22kgs and performing the exercise 10 times in 3 minutes. When this
becomes too easy, you may decide to move up lifting 27kgs for the same number
of repetitions in the same amount of time. Lifting more weights fewer times
most often develops muscle strength. To gain both muscle strength and
endurance, it is recommended that you perform each exercise 15 to 20 reps per
set.
Training Intensity
How hard you begin to train depends on your overall level of fitness. The
soreness you experienced can be lessened by decreasing the load you place on
your muscles and by performing fewer sets.
To avoid injury, you should gradually work into an exercise program and set
the load to your individual fitness level. The load should increase as your
fitness level increases.
Muscle soreness is common, especially when you first start exercising. If you
are painfully sore for a long time, it may be time to change your program.
Eventually, your muscle system will become accustomed to the stress and strain
placed on it
Beginning a Strength Building Program
Warming Up
To begin strength training, it is important to stretch and perform light
exercise for 5 to 10 minutes. This helps prepare the body for more strenuous
exercise by increasing circulation, raising your body temperature and
developing more oxygen to your muscles.
Workout
Each workout to keep in mind that muscle soreness that lasts for a long period
in not desirable and may mean that injury has occurred.
C ool Down
At the end of each workout, perform slow stretching exercises for 5 to 10
minutes. Ease into each stretch only going as far as you can. This stage
allows your muscles wind down after training.
To provide a total workout program it is also recommended that 2 to 3 days of
aerobic exercise is performed in addition to the strength training.
Drinking Water
For the body to function properly, it must be properly hydrated. If you are
exercising, you should increase your fluid intake. The reason for this is that
the water you take in will leave your system through the sweating mechanism
that cools your body during exercise. The water you lose through exercise must
be replaced so that the muscles can recover properly.
Rest Day
Although you may not feel like doing it, taking a rest day at least once a
week is important because it gives you body a chance to heal it self.
Continuously working your muscle will result in over training which will not
benefit in the long run.
