Tired of Being Tired all the Time?

27 Jul 2011

Posted by Joseph Coupal

Did you know that exercise will give you more energy? Are you tired of being tired at the end of the day? Let exercise energize you.

You just need to motivate yourself to take that first step out the door. You may think you’ll never make it, but chances are you’ll continue and you’ll notice a difference very quickly. Tired adults who exercise three times a week for 6 weeks, show a remarkable increase in energy levels. And those doing low-intensity exercises saw the most benefit!

Maybe your having troubles thinking about exercising because you think it isn’t fun. Researchers found that when people think about exercising they tend to think about the first few minutes, which is the hard part. After a workout, those participants rated exercising positively. So find a better way to start out, put your favorite songs at the beginning of the playlist, or grab a friend.

Many people don’t like to navigate a gym on their own. Sign up with a personal trainer. This way you’ll meet someone, get introduced to others and receive your own personal training program. Or, grab a buddy; everyone has more fun working out with a friend.

Father's Day is quickly approaching. Are you looking for the perfect father’s day gift to show your dad just how special he is? It’s hard to find a gift for the person who never asks or needs anything, but look no further. Give you father a series of personal training sessions. There is no better gift than the gift of health to show you dad how much you care.

Your father may be a healthy man who exercises regularly, or maybe he has not been as dedicated to working out recently for any number of reasons. Perhaps he has never exercised and you would like him to start to better his health. Personal Training can be custom tailored to each individual.

With a personal health assessment before training begins, personal trainers can assess your current fitness level and then design a customized personal fitness program based on your fitness level and your goals. This plan will incorporate cardio respiratory health, strength training and a weight loss/gain program if necessary.

With personal training, the burden is not on your father alone to stay motivated.  They will coach him throughout the training session, keep him focused on his goals and make exercising fun all while teaching him new training techniques.

The perfect father’s day gift for dad is the gift of health.

All personal training clients may bring a buddy in to Answer is Fitness to train with them, FREE. And, all members that refer a buddy to personal training will be entered into a raffle to win a free year membership and 5 free one hour personal training sessions.

Whether you are new to fitness, regularly exercise or are a competitive athlete, personal trainers assist you in achieving your goals. At Answer is Fitness, our personal trainers can assess your current fitness level and then design a customized personal fitness program based on your fitness level and your goals.

Motivation is the key to fitness and regular exercise. Personal Trainers coach you through your work outs, keep you motivated and focused on your goals, and teach you new training techniques.

To better reach your goals our personal trainers perform a personal fitness assessment. This is not a diagnostic tool, but rather a tool to gather purpose information related to your current level of physical fitness. This information is used to establish an exercise program specific to your needs, evaluate progress in your current exercise program, establish goals and provide motivation and identify possible health injury risks.

The results of each assessment can be used in two ways. The first, comparing the results to data collected on the general population who has taken the same test. The second is to establish your own personal baseline to use as a tool for measuring improvement in each area. This is a great method for measuring personal fitness goals.

To schedule your personal training sessions, contact Answer is Fitness in Springfield and North Attleboro.

For a New Fitness Routine Try Out Kettlebells

04 May 2011

Posted by Joseph Coupal

What are those weird-looking weights with handles? They are kettlebells and they are worth meeting on a weekly basis. It has recently been discovered that people who did an intense 20-minute workout with kettlebells burned, an average of 400 calories, or 20 calories a minute.  If you need help with the math, that is like running a six-minute mile. Most likely, this is because kettlebell workouts combine cardio and strength training and use several muscle groups at once.

Using a kettlebell burns 70 percent more calories than a typical strength routine. There certainly is a lot of strange looking exercise equipment, but kettlebells you've gotta try. A 20-minute kettlebell workout is worth about an hour on the treadmill! They sculpt every part of your body. Most exercises with them involve swinging the kettlebell up or across the body. All of the weight is below the handle, so your core has to work hard to counteract the momentum. So as a result you will lose inches and while getting stronger and leaner.

If you want to learn how to use kettlebells, work with a personal trainer who can help you design a workout to achieve the goals you want, in a realistic time frame. A trainer at Answer is Fitness can help you get a feel for using kettlebells and burn about 400 calories while you can sculpt your entire body with a fun and different routine.
