FITNESS
Being fi t means living life to the full. Modern
society suffers greatly from stress. City life is
basically sedentary There are too many calories
and too much fat in our diet. All doctors agree
that regular exercise is a good way to control
our weight, make us fi tter and help us to relax.
ADVANTAGES OF EXERCISE
Regular exercise below a certain level for 15/20
minutes becomes aerobic. Aerobic exercise is
basically exercise that uses oxygen. Normally,
this is a continuous exercise without pauses. In
addition to sugars and fats, the body also
needs oxygen. Regular exercise improves the
body's ability to supply oxygen to all of the
uscles and at the same time improve lung
function, the heart's pumping capacity and better
blood circulation. In short, the energy produced
during exercise burns kilocalories (known as
calories).

EXERCISE & WEIGHT CONTROL
or
The food we eat is transformed into, among
other things, energy (calories) for our body. If we
take in more calories than we burn then the
result is an increase in weight and vice versa,
if we burn more calories than we eat, we lose
weight. When resting the body burns around 70
calories per hour to keep our vital functions
active. The table shows approximate energy use
for an average person doing various activities.
EXERCISE PROGRAM
Before starting any exercise program, bearing
in mind that exercise programs vary depending
on age and physical condition, it is advisable to
consult your doctor given that you will achieve
better results based on his/her advice or
suggestions. Regardless of whether your goal is
to become fi tter, control your weight or for
therapeutical use, always remember that your
exercise should be gradual, planned, varied and
not too deman- ding. We recommend that you
should exercise 3 to 5 times per week.
Before beginning a session it is important to do a
warm-up for 2-3 minutes at low speed. This will
help protect your muscles and prepare your
cardiorespiratory system.
