Stationary bikes
I have
a family that
plays "spinning" to reduce weight as a single exercise to achieve this commendable task.
You are right in some respects, in others not. The stationary
bike has become in the last
decade in an exercise program
that attracted thousands of fans waiting to find the panacea of fitness. But like most rabid
mind that these
practices are put fashion were also losing popularity to find his true place
in the set of practices aimed at finding a Comprehensive
health.
The passion of "spinning"
languished, left the market several specialized gyms in this area and many were the used bikes that ended in
the hands of individual fans.
However, their continued presence in some gyms. We visited
some "gurus" Californians, Japanese, Venezuelan businessmen, in short, all demonstrating the effectiveness of the method
to improve the physical fitness of the
individual rather then disappeared
and these studies began to close.
Are Helpful, But ...
As with other aerobic exercises, these stationary bicycle burns calories, increases blood circulation,
improve heart rate and increase the
resistance of the individual. But
the muscles do not develop to the fullest and are deficient
in reducing the proportions
of the abdomen. To have comprehensive health benefits for the heart
are ideal, provided it is Carefully follow your
heart rate, since in every effort, you can overdo it with unpredictable consequences. But for reduced
weight, they are not
relevant if they
are not combined with a good diet
and exercise superior.
It may be that you, having a metabolism "accelerated",
burn fat and give sufficient to exercise 40 minutes on
these bikes, but it will be one of the few exceptions. For all it is essential to add some changes in
your daily diet as this exercise, you sweat more copiously,
will not cover completely reduce weight gain for
their meals.
Bicycles and Musculature
These stationary bike
can help tone the muscles,
especially the legs. Especially when
it rises to, resistance:
higher ranks, however the abdomen
not receive these benefits. To engage these muscles, so
important in the appearance of the individual, it is vital to add weight exercises for arms and chest,
which are directly related to the abs.
Is that exercise on bicycles is more aerobic than muscular.
Very little activity developed pectorals on the bike, only
serve to sustain the weight of the upper body as the rest of the perineum on the bike
seat handles. The benefits of exercising the upper body are not obtained or
with jogging or
running or on the bike.
His face when I
want to see in perfect condition must also reflect the exercises performed on the upper body, arms, and
chest and if you exercise this pectoral and abdominal .Also upper
body accelerates much more
to basal metabolism
at rest and burn
more calories throughout the day.
It does not mean you should give this a sport that fascinates
you as the "spinning", which would suggest that it
is combined with other important routines, which sometimes makes it difficult for the
little time we
have, weights, barbell exercises,
universal machine, you choose. But an interesting idea machines are "cross
trainers" that involve arms,
chest and abs. Simultaneously with
eccentric exercises pedaling exercises involving arms, chest and abs without
spending additional time is added.
This additional amount of exercises for the whole body, results, will see which will be faster and your body will adapt to
this additional amount of exercise above.
To lose weight, you need to do "spinning" a! Least five times a
week, two or three times if
you just want to maintain physical
health. Half an hour daily,
constant and decreasing intensity up every few
minutes minimum. Few days longer distances, others shorter. Another
suggestion to reduce weight
quickly, divide the day into two sessions, one in
the morning and one in the
afternoon. But "Spinning"
is necessary to add other routines.
Do not forget.
Shrimp and cholesterol
A frequent question asked by readers is related to the
cholesterol content of shrimp and
some seafood from the same
family. Admittedly, until the salmon, despite its health benefits, contains certain amounts of cholesterol. Moreover, all fish have some
amount of this complex alcohol.
The suggestion of the experts is that even if you have high levels of blood cholesterol, appropriate and eat shrimp
but always
In moderation. Our bodies handle substances cholesterol
type having shrimp differently than use cholesterol from other sources. In addition, there are good reasons to doubt that is harmful as many people with borderline cholesterol levels regularly eat shrimp
but in moderation without serious side effects.
The Eat In
moderation means eating no more than 10 medium-sized
shrimp, 60 grams
each time. This fair
amount of shrimp containing more than 100 mg.
shrimp cholesterol, which is well below the minimum
dose of 300 mg. daily. You can eat them in
salads, grilled or fried in
some oil, preferably olive oil.
But remember that these substances
besides cholesterol, shrimp, like salmon, also contain fatty Omeqa-3 acids that help reduce high levels of cholesterol
(HDL) levels, raise good cholesterol
(LDL) and reduce level of bad cholesterol.
These Omega-3
fatty acids also have the particularity
to reduce triglycerides, such
as cholesterol, are harmful to the
heart.
The net balance of
eating shrimp in moderation is
more positive than negative. Incidentally,
shrimps contains almost no saturated fat, which makes them particularly suitable for dieters.
Do you know your blood pressure?
I am moved to ask
this question because the most
recent statistics show that more
than a third of adults who have reached age 18 have high blood pressure.
This condition is a major risk factor for heart disease,
so write down your numbers next time it is taken,
or purchase one of these very simple
devices for it and have it
checked on a regular basis.
To stay in a safe range, find that is below 120/80.
To try to stay in
the safe range, do 30 minutes of
physical activity most days of Week kicks and
eat a diet that is low in sodium.
