AMAZING FITNESS TIPS YOU DIDN'T KNOW

This particular post is not just for dancers or dance lovers but for everyone. Some of us work out daily without getting results we expect while some of us don't even see exercise as something we need.
I decided to come up with these facts from my research to help improve you daily workout routine or to help you see the importance of working out

 1.  STRETCHING DOESN'T PREVENT INJURY

I know this will sound strange to some people but stretching before your workout routine doesn't prevent injury in any way. The fact that stretching makes u static(means u stay in one place) makes it even harmful. Before your exercise routine, instead of stretching, warming up by doing a cardiovascular activity(e.g walking, marching on a spot, dancing etc) will give u a better performance.  Don't forget to cool down when you are done exercising.

2. EXERCISE MAKES YOUR HEART STRONGER

Regular exercise not only gives you more energy, it also makes your heart stronger. Your heart is actually a muscle The more you exercise it, the more efficient it becomes at pumping blood throughout your body. The stronger your heart is, the more blood it pumps per beat. The more blood it pumps per beat, the faster oxygen is delivered to your cells — so you feel stronger. Strengthening your heart muscle also lowers your resting heart rate. Make heart-pumping aerobic exercise a regular part of your workout routine. How amazing!!!

3. WHEN YOU SHOULD EAT SHOULD DEPEND ON YOUR GOALS


Which is better, to eat before your workout routine or after? It depends on your exercise goals. If your goal is an intense workout, you'll want to fuel your muscles before you work out. If your goal is weight loss, you'll want to eat after because you'll tap into your fat stores faster if you work out on an empty stomach. if you complete your workout routine on an empty stomach, you could get lightheaded or nauseous. Your best bet might be to first eat something light, do your workout routine, and then have your meal. Whether you eat or not, you must stay hydrated. If you're exercise routine lasts longer than 15 or 20 minutes, be sure to drink during your workout.

4. EXERCISE KEEPS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM SHARP

Another reason to fit exercise into your day: Having a regular workout could mean catching fewer colds. Research shows that after exercise, your body produces more antibodies that attack foreign invaders like bacteria or viruses. A few hours after you complete your exercise routine, your body returns to normal. it appears that the more often you exercise, the longer those antibodies circulate in your system.

Now you have heard, for those always saying they are too busy, 5 to 10 minutes every morning is not a bad idea. It comes with lots of benefits!
