Is often used synonymously with strength training The fundamental principal here is
OVERLOAD. Here, the muscle works against greater loads than usual. This can be done by
increasing the load you are working against.
Patronization
This is the term used to vary your exercise program for both physiological and psychological benefits. In
your overall program, you should vary the workload, frequency and intensity. The body responds better to
variety and so do you. In addition, when you feel yourself getting “stale’, bring in periods of lighter exercise
to allow the body to recuperate and restore its reserves. You will enjoy your program more and feel better
for it.
Muscle Soreness
For the first week or so, this may be the only indication you have that you are on an exercise
program. This, of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A confirmation that you are on the
correct program is a very slight soreness in most major muscle groups. This is quite normal and will
disappear in a matter of days.
If you experience major discomfort, you may be on a program that is too advanced or you have
increased your program too rapidly.
If you experience PAIN during or after exercise, your body is telling your something.
Stop exercising and consult your doctor.
What to Wear
Wear clothing that will not restrict your movement in any way while exercising. Clothes should be light
enough to allow the body to cool. Excessive clothing that causes you to perspire more than you
normally would while exercising, gives you no advantage. The extra weight you lose is body fluid and
will be replaced with the next glass of water you drink. It is advisable to wear a pair of gym or running
shoes or “sneakers”.
Breathing During Exercise
Do not hold your breath while exercising. Breathe normally as much as possible. Remember, breathing
involves the intake and distribution of oxygen, which feeds the working muscles.
Rest Periods
Once you start your exercise program, you should continue through to the end. Do not break off halfway
through and then restart at the same place later on without going through the warm-up stage again.
The rest period required between strength training exercises may vary from person to person. This will
depend mostly on your level of fitness and the program you have chosen. Rest between exercises by all
means, but do not allow this to exceed two minutes. Most people manage with half minute to one minute
rest periods
Important Reminder
Make sure that there is minimum of 2 feet of clearance all around the
strider
.
1.While operating, make sure t
he unit is properly in position on a structurally sound, even surface.
2.
Stand beside the seat, and step over the
strider
frame before seating yourself and placing your feet on the pedals.
3.
Once properly seated on the
strider
, grasp the handles and start pedalling.
Two final comments:(1) don’t be concerned with day to day variations in your pulse rate, being under
pressure or not enough sleep can affect it;(2) your pulse rate is a guide, don’t become a slave to it.
Endurance Circuit Training
Cardiovascular endurance, muscle, strength, flexibility and coordination are all necessary for
maximum fitness. The principle behind circuit training is to give a person all the essentials at one
time by going through your exercise program moving as fast as possible between each exercise.
This increases the heart rate and sustains it, which improves the fitness level. Do not introduce this
circuit training effect until you have reached an advanced program stage.
