Training Program Break Down
Aerobic exercise – 120 minutes / week minimum
What is Aerobic exercise?
This is simply any type of cardiovascular conditioning. It can include activities like swimming, running, cycling, jump roping, boxing, Rowing, or brisk walking.
What makes a good aerobic exercise?
Exercise must be performed at a moderate level of intensity over a relatively long period of time. I highly recommend using a heart rate monitor to track your heart rate.
Strength training exercise – 2 days/week
What is Strength Training?
Strength training involves lifting weights properly with the goal of increasing your whole-body strength as much as possible. Strength training emphasizes sets of lower reps (1-8) over sets of higher reps (8-20 +).
What makes a Good Strength Training Program?
Strength training needs to include progressive overload. This is the most powerful stimulus for muscle growth and strength gains. This simply means that if you are lifting the same weight 4 months from now that you were last week, you probably haven’t gained any muscle and you definitely haven’t gained any strength.
Mobility and Flexibility exercise – 1 day/week
What are mobility and Flexibility exercises?
Mobility is the ability of a joint to move actively through a range of motion. Flexibility is the ability of a muscle (s) to lengthen.
What makes a good mobility and Flexibility exercise?
Both must affect the body’s ability to function properly.
Balance and coordination – 1 day/week
What is Balance and coordination exercise?
These exercises complement each other, just like mobility and flexibility complement each other. The more balanced you are, the better coordination you will have.
What makes a good balance and coordination exercise?
Exercises that are specifically designed to improve your stability and prevent falls as we age.
