New To Resistance Training? Here’s A Tip For Successful Muscle Recovery

Whether you are a newbie at the gym or an elite athlete, you will have undoubtedly heard much debate regarding protein.  Some people swear that eating protein before they work out gives them more energy, while others prefer to eat it after in attempts to replenish the muscles they just used.  Some people prefer carbohydrates before for the quick boost of energy.  While eating carbs after has shown to replace used glycogen stores.  With all of the opposing views it may be difficult to figure out the right way to fuel and recover from a workout!  This article hopes to clear any confusion up with the help of some scientific research...

Wonders Of Our Body And Mind – Teleoanticiapation

Have you ever been on a long run where you started out great, felt exhausted ¾ of the way through, but were able to give it all you had once you knew the end was near? Maybe you, like many people, have not only experienced this feeling once, but it is normal for most of your timed workouts. This phenomenon is a growing theory called “teleoanticipation.” The main idea is that our bodies have the ability to reverse calculate the effort needed to perform a task. This may be why it feels nearly impossible to maintain a truly consistent effort; our brains make us slow down part of the way through to ensure that we have enough resources for later. Biologically, this makes perfect sense. Our bodies perform these types of calculations all of the time in regards to food, sleep, sex, etc. This theory could also explain why it is more difficult to complete a workout when you don’t know how long it will last...

Breast Cancer and Scientific Outlook On Prevention

Breast cancer accounts for 22.9% of all cancers (excluding skin cancer) worldwide in women. In 2008 alone, 458,503 deaths were caused by breast cancer. The rates of survival are much higher in developed countries; 8 out of 10 women diagnosed with breast cancer will recover.  But in developing countries, these rates are much lower due to poor health care coverage and facilities. 12% of women are at risk for developing breast cancer in their life, these rates are dictated by heredity and genetic factors. Advanced treatments and procedures are being developed and studied to aid in prevention and treatment, but these therapies are costly and may have many side effects. Exercise has been extensively studied as a cost effective and healthy breast cancer preventative, as well as a preventative for many other health issues...

Looking For The Most Efficient Way To Grow Muscle? Science Has The Answer

Strength training seemed to be a portion of the gym reserved for people who were already in great shape.  But this rumor is dying, as strength training is starting to become more popular than cardio for its numerous toning and weight loss benefits.  Cardio does burn more calories, but strength training raises your metabolism afteryour work out for longer than cardio does.  Also, the more muscle you build, the more calories you will be burning all the time.  It takes more energy to maintain muscle than fat.  So while your sitting on the couch after your next strength-training workout, just think about how you’re still burning calories.  It really is a great work out.

But there is still some debate amongst gym enthusiasts as to what is the best way to gain strength, stamina, and overall toned muscles.  Is it best to use the heaviest weight you can, but only a few repetitions?  Or is it better to go lighter and do more reps?

Child Obesity and Scientific Approach To Prevention

It is pretty difficult to dismiss the idea that exercise is good for us.  From the news, to the internet, to our doctors, everyone is telling us how important it is to exercise for our bodies and minds.  Many modern adults lead sedentary lives, working from home or sitting in an office all day. Which is why it is so important to take at least 30 minutes out of each day to move our bodies.  But what about kids who have to sit in classrooms for just as many hours as adults?  The rate of obesity is growing not only in adults, but children too.  In order to help the next generation avoid problems such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, it is our job to teach them healthy, life-long habits starting now...

I am at one of the most beautiful beaches of Cape Town washed with the Atlantic Ocean. For this episode of "SpringToFit" workout videos I prepared a creative but simple idea for a morning workout. Of course you do not have to go to the beach to perform those exercises, it can very well be a home workout. Let's energize ourselves with a combination of jumping jacks, lunges and squats. Turn on some good workout music and repeat after me.
