Get Moving

If someone has told you that only a hard and tough exercise routine can

make you healthy then, he has misguided you completely because although

exercise is necessary for your health and fitness but it is not necessary that

you have to work out for more than an hour every day to stay fit. After

hearing this kind of hard working plan, most of the people lose their heart

and they think that they do not have time for this crap and they are better

without it. This is also a wrong attitude and you should look for more

proper and realistic guide. Obviously, you have a busy life routine and you

cannot get time for exercise daily but you can obviously find 15-20 minutes

daily for very relaxing kinds of exercises which can help you to get rid of

whole day’s stress and can make your fresh for a new start. In this

discussion, I am going to give you all those secret exercise types and will

also tell you their advantages.

First of all, you need to know that there are four kinds of exercise plans

which are available and all four of them have different advantages for your

physical health.

Exercise To Improve Bone and Muscle Strength

These exercises are also called strength and resistance increasing exercises.

Most of the people take body building as strength and resistance increasing

exercise but you need to know that body building is another category of

exercise in which the primary goal of the person is to enhance muscle

growth.

You can add some weight lifting and body building in your fat burning and

weight control plan but you should do it to an extent where your body can

bear it without any problem. If you over tried this exercise then, your whole

body can be a mess. I have seen people joining gyms and doing hard

exercise just by watching other people doing it. This is not the way to go

instead consult your trainer personally and ask him about appropriate

exercises which can fit in your needs. If your weight is under control and

you need just light exercise to keep your healthy system going then, you do

not need to lift heavy weights.

Flexibility Increasing Exercises

Second type of exercise plan can be to increase your flexibility and in more

common terms you can say that if you used to have pain in your arms, legs,

lower back, neck and other similar areas of your body then, you need to

make your body more flexible. Flexibility will increase resistance and you

will be able to cope with more difficult positions and postures easily. You

have to go through different postures in daily life for example if you work in

an office then, you can be given an uncomfortable chair at times or you may

be given some work in which you have to concentrate hard on computer

screen and you cannot rest your back with chair. In these situations, if you

do not have any flexibility in your body then, it will create problems but

regular flexibility exercises which will not take more than 10-15 minutes of

your time, will increase this flexibility and will make you feel better and

active.

Cardiovascular Exercise

Cardio means heart and vascular means the vessels of blood and this whole

phrase means that these exercises improve the functionality of your lungs

and make the use of oxygen more effective and rectify any heart problems

which you can have. These exercises are little time consuming and should

be properly learned from your doctor or trainer. Most of the times, people

who already have got some heart problem perform these kinds of exercises

to avoid any future problems.

Aerobics

Aerobics are the last type of exercises which are most helpful for

maintaining a healthy body. These exercises are very simple and they do

not need any special preparation and time frame for execution. If you just

get up early in the morning and do some dancing then, this is also a type of

aerobics but most of the aerobics are for young and energetic people as

some difficult angels and twists are included in this exercise routine. You

need to first learn this exercise from some professional trainer of aerobics

and once you have learnt them then, these exercises will not require more

than 10 minutes of your daily time.
