actually cause a problem with your body. If you start the exercise program full steam ahead you are likely to hurt yourself than take it slowly at first. In a good and safe fitness plan you keep steady pace when you are learning proper form and build tolerance. As you get in a better shape and gain more strength you can be able to speed up in your plan. Safety tip No. 1: Warm up and cool down You have to prepare yourself for the upcoming effort by going through a warm-up period. 5 to 10 minutes aerobic is a great start to begin with and it will get your blood flowing, the temperature of your muscles will get higher, and you start breathing faster, all of which help your body adjust to the demands you will be placing on it during exercise. All workout plans should end up with cool down which decreasing your pace, allowing your heart rate and your breathing to return to normal. Safety tip No.2: Stretch Stretching after you have warm up will help you staying flexible and you get more out of your fitness routine. After your cool down there is good to stretch because you get even more flexibility when your muscles is warm. Good tips for stretching: Go slowly into your stretch and hold in 30 seconds, relax while stretching, you do not have to feel pain. Safety tip No.3: Get the right gear You have to train in the best gear for your body both for your comfort and safety. You don’t always have to buy the most expensive stuff but the things you need in exercise are these: Athletic shoes and they have to be replaced every six months, weather-appropriate clothing and any necessary protective equipment. Safety tip No. 4: Add Variety You have to have variable in your exercise program or your body will adapt and you will get less benefit from it. The best exercise programs involve a mix of aerobic activity and strength training, along with stretching. That is recommended that each week you should aim for a total of 150 minutes of aerobic exercise and take off at least one day between strength training sessions to allow your muscles to recover. Safety tip No.5: Hydrate You have to be careful of drinking enough water or you could end up dehydrated or with heat exhaustion. A good rule is to drink 2 cups of water 15 minutes before your exercise program and another 2 cups after your cool down. There is also very good to take a quick sip while during your exercises. Safety tip No.6: Listen to your body Your muscles can feel sore up to 24 hours after a good workout. If you feel any pain during a workout stop immediately and talk to a doctor.

Eating right for exercise Summary from http://www.everydayhealth.com/fitness/eating-right-for-exercise.aspx Sue Travis, RD, PhD, of the division of nutritional sciences at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y say that you need energy to exercise and that energy comes from food. You have to eat before any fitness activity and after.

different between each person how much food they need. That varies with age, sex, weight and activity level. The rate how much calories you burn depends on the exercise you do and how well you do it. Sue Travis say‘s it’s important to divide your calories between carbohydrates, protein, and fat: Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates, sugars and starches are broken down by the body into glucose. Muscles then use it for energy. Glycogen helps you getting through high-intensity exercise and prolonged endurance. Good examples for Carbohydrates are cereals, fruit, pasta and more. Protein: Protein has to be in your major meals because it will help slow absorption of carbohydrates. Good examples for Protein are fish, chicken and meat. Fat: Travis says that you need a fat in your diet and a good example for fat is milk and meat. Travis says also that you have to try to have combination of the three items in all your major meals.For breakfast it‘s good to eat oatmeal, low-fat dairy product, and a glass of juice. For lunch it‘s good to have sandwich made with lean meat on a whole-grain bread, with raw veggies and fruit on the side. Protein bars can be useful but don‘t use them instead of eating a major meal Timing meals and snacks Always try to eat before you practice in the morning or you can use up all your stored energy. If you’re planning a hard workout, eat a meal high in carbohydrates at least three to four hours before. A fruit for a snack in the morning is a great way to start the day. Factor in Fluids It‘s very important to drink fluids before, during and after workout and try to drink even if you aren‘t thirsty. Water is a good choice for most activities but if you are in a longer exercise you will probably need a sport drink. Sports drinks are more designed for people who are doing endurance activities for prolonged period than designed for the average person. Caffeine is dehydrating and Travis says that you have to drink some water with the caffeinated drink if you drink it. If you drink as much water that your body needs and eat regular meals that include carbohydrates, protein, and fat, you should have all the energy you need for your exercise.
