Muscle Loading

Muscles are loaded by performing movements against a resistance to maximal muscular contraction. This greatly improves strength and is referred to as working to repetition maximum (RM) against a selected resistance.


Maintaining strict exercise technique and working to failure, the following effects may be expected.


. repetitions from 1-6 RM produce strength
. repetitions from 1-6 RM with speed produce power
. repetitions from 7-14 RM produce muscular endurance
. repetitions greater than 15 produce stamina.


Working to repetition maximum in this way is known as overloading the muscles.


Have fun with your workouts, challenge yourself, make your own routines. Make fitness fun!

Do you believe?

Do you believe that you can work from home and get real results? Or thats not possible because you can't be fully motivated at home to get real results. Well more and more people are working out at home because it's less expensive and just more convenient. You would be surprised to see what just basic exercises can achieve without all the fancy equipment. Just try doing push ups and sit ups consistently and see what happens, now a days people place too much emphasis on machines and workout programs when all they should be doing is just a basic routine consistently. Enjoy exercising, do a hill walk or a beach walk with friends, laugh and talk , enjoy the scenery and while you are enjoying the walk you are exercising and getting results. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, just take it easy and do your thing. Surveys have shown that the people who exercise fanatically end up with more injuries than people who just take it easy and watch their diet to help with the weight control. Think about it, getting the gym body without going to the gym. Just give me a shout out I'll get you started.(1876 353 4399)

Punching bag and its many uses.

The punching bag has many uses and today I'll just mention a few of these uses. The bag can be used to give you a great cardio workout, simply unleash on the bag in 3 minute periods resting a minute between each period and prepare yourself for the burn because you are going to burn a lot of calories. The bag can also be used to release angry pent up energy, just unleash on the bag for as long as you can until all the negative energy is drained from your body. And final use I want to talk is about is using the bag as a warm up for your workout a great way to warm up and to introduce a little variety to your routine. there are lots of other uses for the bag especially for fighters but the uses mentioned above are pretty good for the normal everyday exercisers who is just seeking to bring a little variety to his or her workout.
Make fitness fun and I do wish you all the best on your quest to fitness and good health, remember consistency is the key so dig deep and keep your program going just 'Do your best and forget the rest' PEACE!

Sometimes when you are down and trying to get back up things can get much worse before they ever get any better. Keep your head up and keep strong, no one said life would be easy.
When you find your self stressing over simple things, pick yourself up in a hurry because the real 'STRESS FACTORS' maybe about to hit you. Life is just for living, live it one day at a time, keep it simple, keep it honest and be real, be you and don't pretend to be what you are not. BE REAL!
