Your Total Fitness Program - BOSU Ballast Ball Mode D'emploi

YOUR TOTAL FITNESS PROGRAM

A total fitness program is more than just exercise. It is a "fitness for life" plan that
goes hand-in-hand with an overall, healthy lifestyle. This includes regular check-ups,
healthy eating habits and exercise for the rest of your life.
A total fitness program consists of four parts:
1. Aerobic or cardiovascular exercise to burn calories.
2. Strength conditioning exercises to tone and shape your muscles, increase
your metabolic rate and strengthen your bones.
3. Stretching exercises to keep you moving freely and help prevent injuries.
4. A diet that is safe, sensible and healthy.
Today, fitness research recommends both aerobic exercise and strength conditioning
to achieve the best results and balanced fitness. By improving your aerobic fitness
you will strengthen your heart and lungs, improve your stamina and endurance.
Strength conditioning adds lean muscle to your body. This increases your body's
calorie-burning ability by increasing your metabolism. As a result, your body burns
more calories, even while you rest. When you combine aerobic workouts with
strength conditioning, you can burn more fat and calories when compared with
aerobic
exercise alone.
