Workout Factors
1. Personal goals includes shaping, strengthening, available time, present
fitness level, previous injuries, and cardiovascular. By using the ACTIV cycle
correctly and on a regular basis, you can achieve your goals.
2. Available time is one of a major element in determining what we do in our
daily lives. If you can only exercise for 15 minutes, develop a 15 minute
program with the ACTIV cycle.
3. Exercising and working out on the ACTIV cycle should be an enjoyable part of
your daily life.
4. Focus on the exercises for your muscles work. No matter what your level of
fitness, you can complete each exercise in a short range of time and sense
the increase level of strength and endurance.
5. Always start your exercise slowly to warm up muscles.
6. The ACTIV cycle provides you with bio-mechanically correct exercises. The
design of the ACTIV cycle allows you to exercise your muscles with
movements that are natural and efficient.
7. Being exercise specific is the common sense approach to exercise or training.
For example, a marathon runner concentrates on long distance endurance
training and does not practice starting. A sprinter, on the other hand, practices
starting but does not run 10 miles a day. Practice doesn't make perfect,
perfect practice makes perfect. Tailor your workouts to achieve your goals.
Overall fitness and muscle balance is important for a healthy lifestyle and
injury prevention.
The Overload Principal
In order for you to strengthen your body, you must develop a series of exercise
workouts each day. When you work out on a regular basis, your body
specifically your muscles, adjust to the new level of work. It's called increasing
local metabolic efficiency. As a result, your muscles work better and you get
stronger. If you keep working at the same level of metabolic efficiency, you can't
improve muscle efficiency. So from time to time you need to increase the
frequency and/or duration of the exercise. Thus, in order to improve your fitness
level, you must progressively increase your work load to reach your personal
goal.
