Exercise form an essential part of trying the get your body in to shape. An
increase in activity will help the muscles grow and increase your metabolism.
The Workout Plan When choosing a
workout plan by either selecting a predefined program or creating your own you
have to remember to constantly "shock" your body. This means that you should
change your workout plan every 4-6 weeks to continue getting optimum results.
You can choose one of the predefined programs for your 12 week transformation
that will help you to get in shape. Choose a workout plan according to your own
goals that you defined.
Resistance (Weight)
Training When performing resistance training the results can be
anything from muscle gain and fat loss, endurance and strength, enhanced sport
performance or recuperation from an injury. The way in which you will perform
the resistance training will depend on what you want to achieve.
Why the muscles grow? In simple terms when you lift
the weight it creates micro-tears in your muscle tissue. Your body adapts by
adding more muscle to be able to handle the load (this happens when you rest
that muscle). When you can lift the weight with ease your body will stop to add
muscle. To ensure that you keep your muscles growing you can do the following to
continue getting results:
Increase the weight.
Decrease your rest time between sets.
Cardio Training Cardio training is more for the
people who want to shed some excess body fat or to improve their endurance and
fitness levels. If you are a skinny guy/girl with low body fat then you will
keep your cardio to a minimum.
