cardio training

​A cardio workout means exercising to work your whole cardiovascular system. This means that you exercise hard enough to get your heart beating faster to pump oxygenated blood from the lungs around your body to deliver oxygen to the muscle. You need to be able to work hard enough to break into a sweat, increase your heart rate but still be able to hold a conversation.

weight training

​Weight training, resistance training or strength training is not just about body builders lifting big weights. It combines repetitive exercises and resistance such as free weights, weight machines and resistance bands to improve muscular strength and endurance. By exercising regularly and following a combined programme that includes both resistance and cardio training you can enjoy long term health benefits.

running for weight loss or fitness

​Running is the most popular sport on the planet and it’s quite easy to see why. You can do it with minimum cost outlay; just a pair of running shoes and you’re good to go. Not only do you gain countless health benefits like lowering high blood pressure, improved resting heart rate, sleeping better and lower cholesterol, but as a bonus you also get to eat more carbs like pasta and potatoes.

swimming for weight loss or fitness

​Swimming is a fantastic low cost aerobic exercise that is suitable for almost everyone, no matter what age, size, ability or gender, and easily accessible. It can be done individually as a workout or you can take a more leisurely approach and involve the whole family. By practising a variety of different strokes such as front crawl, breaststroke, butterfly and back stroke you will be recruiting almost all of the muscles in your body, giving you a full body workout.

cycling for weight loss or fitness

Cycling is a low impact way of improving cardiovascular fitness that avoids some of the repetitive strain injuries associated with other sports. Cycling using a well chosen type of bike that is appropriate to your size and build can avoid putting excessive stress on joints, and help stimulate metabolism. Cycling can dramatically aid weight loss whilst at the same time providing a low stress way of travelling. Reduced blood pressure, improved muscle tone, and numerous cardiovascular benefits are all associated with this healthy travel alternative.

keeping a training diary

​Starting a fitness programme can be daunting and the best place to start is by creating a training plan. Without this, you have no idea where you are going and how you are going to get there. A plan helps you to look at where you are currently so you can prioritise your fitness goals. The plan can be used as a tool to monitor how you are getting on. It will help you plan changes and recognise what works and doesn’t work for you.
