What Goes into a Training Program?

In most cases, there are several key elements that go into improving your health through a training program. Each is just as important as the next. Here are some major points to focus on to improve your overall fitness.

1. Warming up: The most important thing to start with is a warm up that will loosen muscles, get your heart pumping, and will help you to avoid injury. You never want to skip the warm up. Usually, five to ten minutes of a warm up is what’s needed to get the body ready for what is to come in the rest of your program. Of course, the same is repeated at the end in a cool down period.

2. Strength Training: You’ll want to spend some time each week working on muscles because they play such an important role in your overall health and well being. Muscular strength and muscle endurance are both equally important to tackle. This will include free weights, machines, pushups and other bodyweight exercises. Strength training will help to increase your lean body mass which will also increase your metabolism and is vital to both men and women of all ages.

3. Cardiovascular Health: Another important aspect of any type of fitness program is cardio workouts. These strengthen your body’s ability to pump blood which contains nutrients and oxygen throughout the body. This type of training will also help your body use fat as an energy source while making your body more efficient at daily tasks.

4. Stretching and flexibility: Working on your flexibility allows you to keep and improve your range of motion. You should spend at least 10 minutes of each day doing simple stretching exercises following your exercise session. This helps avoid injury, while increasing recovery.

A personal fitness program that encompasses these things is one that provides overall fitness to your body. As a certified Kansas City fitness trainer, I specialize in working with individuals of all ages and all levels of fitness. Let's get started TODAY on improving YOUR life!
