Something everybody will love: a total-body workout anybody can do without needing to stand up. It is a workout with training you can do in the comfort of your own Pj’s. There's an entire burn and bum work but at least you can avoid the gym. This discipline is a workout that is effective but also structured in a way to fit in with your daily life so that “couch potatoes” have a little less stress when eating too much and not exercising. People who work and students who do projects sit at their desk all day long so to be healthy they have to overcomplicate their schedules and make it a drag when working all day isn’t already tiring. This workout can be done wherever whenever to just workout some of your muscles and maybe get your heart rate going in-between work and having a breather from tasks.
I want with people doing this workout to have realistic expectations, if people set their goals to high they might just throw in the towel. With this workout the aim is not to have a Victoria secret model body but gain a healthier lifestyle than before. To build up confidence and comfort within their bodies. Lazy people usually have no energy but to get energy we need to exercise a bit, so if at the end of the process getting up in the morning is a bit easier than that is a goal defiantly achieved. This is a workout for the long run

As a lay person I needed something to bring energy back into my life seeing that High school drains you, also wanted to give my body the care tht it deserves without trying to hurt myself. I know that going to the gym is time consuming and a trier for e to suddenly be self-conscious so I needed a workout which I could do in the comfort of my own home and which fits into my daily
The first time I realized I wanted to specialize in medicine was when my father took me to the fire station when I was around the age of fourteen. He began to show me images of different cases and trauma scenes they had participated in. Since then, I have constantly asked my dad questions about different calls and scenarios about patients he has rescued. By having a father in the medical field and continuing to take science and medical courses throughout high school, I began to learn more about medicine throughout the years. Deciding to partake in these courses further advanced my understanding in medicine. These courses helped it become clear to me that the medical field is something I continuously
Having a strong back will get you a greater amount of bodybuilding titles than any other muscle group. Take a glance at the names of former Mr. Olympia champions. Dorian Yates used his unusually massive and thick back to beat out bodybuilders who had much better chest and arms. Ronnie Coleman also found this useful. He had a wider back than anyone else, and he used his back to out shine the other competitors and win the Mr. Olympia title eight times. When Coleman hurt himself and didn’t have the advantage of his huge back, Jay Cutler stepped right in and beat him with a massive back.
Attitudes: The audience more than likely feels some disdain for the topic of fitness. No one likes to be reminded that they're unfit and need to get active. With this in mind, I will create a positive attitude about fitness by taking the "work" out of workout and showing how easily attainable it is
This class has allowed me to refocus on working out and the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I will take this back to my unit and stress the importance of maintaining your health. I will show them new ways they can work out in small areas and different types of cardio activities such as the interval run and the fit deck loop. Furthermore, I will inform them that maintaining their health is vital to maximizing their retirements.
For the health behavior change interview assignment, I had the pleasure of interviewing Jackie B. After spending a summer abroad, Jackie’s primary desire is to get into the habit of going to the gym at least three times per week. Jackie lives a pretty active lifestyle, however, between going to school and working, life can become a bit overwhelming. Working out is the mechanism that helps Jackie manage her stress.
HIIT is efficient, it's the perfect workout for anyone with a busy schedule; it can be squeezed in during a lunch hour, can be fit it in while dinner is in the oven, or while you're at the kids soccer
So, in the summer, when all my friends slept until noon, I wake up every morning at four to exercise at CrossFit. There were times when I wanted to give up and sleep after a year of exam driven sleep deprivation, but every time that happened, I saw my steadfast father fight through exhaustion, I saw my unfit body, and I saw a lifetime of heart disease ahead of me. With that motivation, I kicked the covers off the bed and jump out with gusto to get my day started. School has started, and I continue with the same vigor as I did in the summer. Balancing classes, clubs, internships, dance, and now exercising, my schedule has never been more jam-packed, but I have never been happier. Inspiration got me started, but after 3 months, positive attitude and habit kept me going, and I have no intention of stopping. I realized that when you stop making excuses and own up to your own faults, you can accomplish anything if you make a regimen and stick with
After a class discussion about making working out more creative, I made a change in my plan. Rather than doing the same workout each week, I decided to adjust my new behavior to three or more 30-60 minute workouts with a cardio element. The second phase of this experience was faced with challenges, but the update in my plan was helpful. The fourth week I still did not meet my goal, but I did complete one run and another cardio workout. Having my sponsor checking up on me was what helped me over this lag, I did not like telling her I was failing, so her accountability encouraged me to do better going forward. I also begin incorporating friends into my workouts. By the fifth week I was recommitted. I worked out well over thirty minutes three times, two of which were with friends. This week was positive for me, as it showed me that working out could be fun. I believe this shift in thinking was the most valuable lesson during this experience. I needed this new way of thinking because in high school I only ran because I belonged to the cross country and track teams. I felt pressure form my teammates, coaches, parents, and myself to workout. Although it was fun at times, I was doing it because I felt I had to. Now that I am in college, nobody tells me to workout and I am accountable to nobody but myself. Realizing working out can be fun, and adding in my friends, is what propelled my last three weeks. I successfully met my
Coming from a high school competitor, I made the choice to dedicate time to working out. I began lifting weights in the 8th grade and since then it has been a part of my life. I went through some rough waters in high school and from that I have learned to release some of the anger, sadness, and even happiness I have into working out. It relinquishes me the time to think through every situation I have in front of me effectively. Now that I am at Iowa State the gym means more than it ever has. The work load I have received in college already exceeds the amount I ever imagined. There are many things I have to worry about now that my parents aren’t by my side all the time, so the gym is a place where I can find some composer and get through whatever I have ahead of me. The gym can be your special place too if you just manage your time and never fall behind in your school
My goal for this fitness program is to lose weight and gain muscle strength and the way I am going to achieve my goal is using the magic bullet: diet and exercise. My current weight at the start of this project is 230.0 pounds. I will be going to the gym five days out of the weak and I will also start a dieting plan as well. My workouts will include upper body, lower body, abs, and at least thirty minutes of cardio at the end or before each workout. The upper body will include chest, arms, shoulders, and back on Mondays and Thursdays. The lower body will include legs, calfs, lower back and hips on Tuesdays and Fridays. Abs will be just abs with cardio on Wednesdays. Leaving me with Saturdays and Sundays to use as rest days and giving my muscle a chance to rebuild and grow.
I want to share the workout that I recently started doing. It is not much at all, and some of you who are super in shape and ripped might even laugh at it, but for anyone wanting to begin this summer to get in shape, this is the perfect workout for you to start with. And the best part is, it can be done all from your own home! As you
This semester my primary goals were to eat healthier and to maintain my 6 mile run time. My two goals required a lot of dedication and the body works class has helped me stay focus on my goals throughout the entire semester. Having body work class on Mondays helps me get my week started with a good workout, secondly having this class in general works as a reminder that being healthy and active is an everyday challenge that truly pays off in the long run.
There are many personal self-care activities that are extremely important to our health. As a college student I chose an activity that I believe is one of the most important as well the most difficult for college students to do, exercising. I believe physical activity to be one of the most important personal self-care-activity a person can do to help improve their overall health. As a college student I have experienced what most college students or soon to be college students dread the most; “the freshman 15” which could easily be avoided with simply some exercise. Although many things lead to the freshman 15 such as irregular eating habits, stress, and lack of sleep I am going to discuss just how important exercise is as well as how it could help improve your overall health.
The articles by Erikson et al., Gatz, Korol et al., and Draganski et al. explore the concept of increased physical activity and/or mental activity having effects on the cognitive function and development or deterioration of the brain as we age. Although I agree that physical exercise is critical in increasing cognitive function because of the health benefits it provides, as well as the increased blood flow and circulation throughout the body, I ultimately believe that a healthy brain is not achieved solely by physical exercise or mental exercise, but both. I think there is a link between physical and mental exercise, and that the combination of these two activities creates higher cognitive functioning of the mind as well as the body. The mind and body come together and meet to make an overall healthy individual.
Adding exercises into one’s daily routines can change their whole lifestyle. Many people look at exercise as being something just for people who want to lose weight or to become muscle bound, but there are a great deal of benefits that can be received from exercising regularly. Of course gaining muscle and losing fat are the two most popular reasons that usually attract people to the gym, but they make up a small part of the potential benefits that can be achieved with exercise. There are several ways in which I have benefited in my life from exercising regularly, besides just making me bigger and stronger. It has made me become more organized, helped me make better decisions, and motivated me to take on new challenges in life.
