Do you Know your body type?
Knowing the type of body you have will help you choose the right fitness program for you. There’s little point in exercising for weight loss if what you really need is to tone up or increase your strength.
Ask yourself some Questions about your Body Type.
Are you really Overweight or is it simply that your Muscles are Flabby?
If you are overweight you may need to combine a diet with an exercise program. It could be that you are eating the wrong things, rather than eating too much. Making sure you are active every day, even for only short periods, will help to burn off the extra fat your body is storing.
Are you Tired all the time or Sleeping too much?
Lack of exercise alone can cause this. If you already have a balanced diet you may need to do some more intense exercise that gets the heart going and the blood going round. And try to get plenty of fresh air.
Is it the Shape of your body that bothers You?
Toning exercises that tone up the muscles in targeted areas of the body will soon get you into shape. Saggy bum or drooping shoulders can be transformed. You may need help to identify the exercises that change specific areas.
Are you Weak and want to be stronger?
Perhaps you just wish that you can do things that other people seem to do easily or perhaps you have been out of action because of a spell in hospital and need to rebuild your strength. and that will require a regular daily regime that builds muscle effectively. You might want to be a body-builder and that’s a whole different regime.
Are you lacking in Stamina?
Again, the cause could be both a diet problem and a lack of exercise, or just one of those things. You could be short of essential vitamins or minerals. It may be a good idea to visit a doctor to find out. If you think it is more to do with strength try not to do too much at once but build up slowly, increasing the time you spend on your activity each day.
