The right type of exercise

Today dear readers we will focus on the best type of exercise for your health.

If you watch the news or read main stream exercise reports, you would that aerobic, slow placed exercising is the best for you. Hear at goal setting, health and parenting we take a different view – as we seem to on many things.

Aerobic exercise makes your body fit for long distance running and slow activities. This is not bad in itself, however it does compromise your heart. Your heart becomes smaller, and while more efficient at running longer distances, it is less capably of beating faster when you need it to – eg in times of stress.

To build reserve into your heart, you need to undertake short term repetition work. The perfect exercise is hill sprints. Start with a set of 8-10 hill sprints 2 – 3 times a week. Start out at 50% and work your way up to 90% by the last repetition. This will not only build muscle and make you burn fat, but it will also improve your hearts health.

As always, please consult a Doctor!!!

In other news…

Your editor has not written for a few days as he has been off sick.

Being sick really makes you appreciate how important health is. If it is not one of your top goals, you should seriously think about making it one.
