Best Practices to Get Fit at Home

Greetings my fellow readers! What a bright day in Malacca today. And today, i feel i want to write something useful to many people out there who do not have time to go to the gym for workout. Well, it is understandable since everybody has their own matter to attend to and this may cause time constraint for them to visit gym and do workout. In meeting this issue, so i try to search for few articles that correlated and find solutions for these group of people. And i come out with the best solution which is on how people out there who does not have enough time to go to the gym can get fit even at own home. 

As experts stated that we also can get fit at home without having to go to the gym to meet our workout needs and the result still visible and absolute but of course with discipline, passion and determination as well. There are mere 5 elements that we need to observe in order to get fit at home. And yes, i can mentioned here that certain gym is quite expensive and the cost can come to worse if you join health club out there. So, why don't you try some of the workout that best to be practiced at home and you still can get the result you wish. 

The 5 elements to get fit at home are as follows : 

• Warmup 
• Cardiovascular workout 
• Resistance exercise 
• Flexibility moves 
• Cooldown 

Lets start with a warmup first. Each and everytime you want to get started to exercise, it is very important for you to warm yourself up as the first step before you go intense in your exercise or workout. This is actually to avoid muscles cramps during the workout since you need to "activate"your muscles and be active for the intense exercise later on. You may start you warmup with easy walk outside or you can also do it on a treadmill as well, on which you comfortable with. Just feel enjoy doing this and you will automatically get motivated at the same time. 

After done with the warmup, you can start doing cardiovascular workout already. For cardiovascular portion, you can either walk faster, pedal faster, do aerobic steps or do a jump rope. And remember, this cardiovascular workout is very important as you need to gets your heart rate up and this will benefits both of your health and your body at the same time, simultaneously! 

For the resistance exercise, you can do a repetitive squats and push-ups. Squats actually works the quadriceps, hamstrings, gluteus and also calves whereas push-ups involves the pectorals, deltoids, biceps, triceps and even the abdominals and the upper back. Even with this simple exercises, you also can get the benefits from doing it. Just challenge yourself of how many squats and push-ups you can do within time set and you can assess yet improve your strength capabilities over time. 

Now we move to flexibility moves. For this portion, you can do some floor stretch or yoga poses. For some of people out there may find this not quite an option for them but if possible, you can try them it once. There is no harm trying right? So, just try to stretch yourself and see what you can do. 

After done with all the workouts and exercises, you need to cool yourself down. Meaning here, you need to rest but do remember, if your heart rate or beats fast, just relax and keep standing up and let the heart rate or beats turn to its normal rate. Do not directly sits down or lying down on the floor to rest. There are cases happen where someone passed out after resting merely after done with workouts and exercises. 

Getting started!

If you are a beginner, just be sure to aim for 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercises at least 3 times a week and focus on 30 minutes of strength workouts 3 times a week. In fact, while implementing this suggested portion of exercises and workouts, be sure that all the exercises and workouts done covers all the major parts such as upper body, lower body, abdominals and also the back. 

It is totally understandable that everyone want a fast and visible result of their workout but then end up overdone their workout in a wrong way. This should be avoided actually since we do not want all the efforts gone to waste. To me personally, it is better for us to do it slowly and then gradually increase the workout time and intensity in order to prevent injuries and what more important, all the efforts made is worthy enough as the result is also visible and better yet, we do it correctly and in a safe way too!
