If youre an average beginner looking for some basic guidelines to follow in the gym, the following 8 points will start you off on the right track.<br />1) Train With Weights and Focus On Compound, Free Weight Movements.<br />If you want to make solid, noteworthy gains in muscle size and strength, you absolutely must train with free weights and focus on basic, compound exercises. A compound exercise is any lift that stimulates more than one muscle group at a time. Examples of these lifts are the squat, deadlift, bench press, chin up, barbell row, overhead press, dip and lunge. Compound movements allow you to handle the most weight and will stimulate the greatest amount of total muscle fibers.<br />2) Be Prepared To Train Hard.<br />One of the biggest factors that separates those who make modest gains from those who make serious gains is their level of training intensity. In order to stimulate your muscle fibers to their utmost potential, you must be willing to take every set you perform in the gym to the point of muscular failure.<br />Muscular Failure: The point at which no further repetitions can be completed using proper form.<br />Sub-maximal training intensity will leave you with sub-maximal results, plain and simple.<br />3) Track Your Progress In The Gym From Week To Week.<br />Our bodies build muscle because of an adaptive response to the environment. When you go to the gym, you break down your muscle fibers by training with weights. Your body senses this as a potential threat to its survival and will react accordingly by rebuilding the damaged fibers larger and stronger in order to protect against any possible future threat. Therefore, in order to make continual gains in muscle size and strength, you must always focus on progressing in the gym from week to week. This could mean performing 1 or 2 more reps for each exercise or adding more weight to the bar. Keep a detailed training log to track your progress as your strength increases over time.<br />4) Avoid Overtraining.<br />Overtraining is your number one enemy when it comes to building muscle size and strength. When most people begin a workout program, they are stuck with the misguided notion that more is better. They naturally assume that the more time they spend in the gym, the better results they will achieve. When it comes to building muscle, nothing could be farther from the truth! If you spend too much time in the gym, you will actually take yourself farther away from your goals rather than closer to them. Remember, your muscles do not grow in the gym; they grow out of the gym, while you are resting and eating. Recovery is absolutely vital to the muscle growth process. If you don’t provide your body with the proper recovery time in between workouts, your muscles will never have a chance to grow.<br />5) Eat More Frequently.<br />The main area where most people fail miserably on their muscle-building mission is on the all-too important task of proper nutrition. Training with weights is only half of the equation! You break down your muscle fibers in the gym, but if you don’t provide your body with the proper nutrients at the proper times, the muscle growth process will be next to impossible. You should be eating anywhere from 5–7 meals per day, spaced every 2–3 hours in order to keep your body in an anabolic, muscle-building state at all times. Each meal should consist of high quality protein and complex carbohydrates.<br />6) Increase Your Protein Intake.<br />Of the 3 major nutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fats) protein is without a doubt the most important for those who are looking to gain muscle size and strength. Protein is found in literally every single one of the 30 trillion cells that your body is made up of and its main role is to build and repair body tissues. Without sufficient protein intake, it will be physically impossible for your body to synthesize a significant amount of lean muscle mass. If your body were a house, think of protein as the bricks. A general guideline is to consume 1–1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight each day from high quality sources such as fish, poultry, eggs, beef, milk, peanut butter and cottage cheese.<br />7) Increase Your Water Intake.<br />If you want a simple, easy and highly effective way to maximize your muscle gains, drinking more water is it. Water plays so many vital roles in the body and its importance cannot be overstated. In fact, your muscles alone are made up of 70% water! Not only will drinking more water cause your muscles to appear fuller and more vascular, but it will also increase your strength as well. Research has shown that merely a 3–4% drop in your body’s water levels can impact muscle contractions by 10–20%! Aim to consume 0.6 ounces for every pound of bodyweight each day for optimal gains.<br />8) Be Consistent!<br />Consistency is everything. Those who make the greatest gains in muscular size and strength are the ones who are able to implement the proper techniques on a highly consistent basis. Simply knowing is not enough, you must apply!<br />Building muscle is a result of the cumulative effect of small steps. Sure, performing 1 extra rep on your bench press will not make a huge difference to your overall results, and neither will consuming a single meal. However, over the long haul, all of those extra reps you perform and all of those small meals you consume will decide your overall success. If you work hard and complete all of your muscle-building tasks in a consistent fashion, all of those individual steps will equate to massive gains in overall size and strength.", "to": [ "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public" ], "cc": [ "https://www.minds.com/api/activitypub/users/1225564839871520777/followers" ], "tag": [], "url": "https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/1247237840495677440", "published": "2021-06-03T17:17:52+00:00", "source": { "content": "There is so much conflicting information out there when it comes to the topic of building muscle, and sometimes it can be very difficult to know where to start.

If you spend too much time in the gym, you will actually take yourself farther away from your goals rather than closer to them. Remember, your muscles do not grow in the gym; they grow out of the gym, while you are resting and eating. Recovery is absolutely vital to the muscle growth process. If you don’t provide your body with the proper recovery time in between workouts, your muscles will never have a chance to grow.\n5) Eat More Frequently.\nThe main area where most people fail miserably on their muscle-building mission is on the all-too important task of proper nutrition. Training with weights is only half of the equation! You break down your muscle fibers in the gym, but if you don’t provide your body with the proper nutrients at the proper times, the muscle growth process will be next to impossible. You should be eating anywhere from 5–7 meals per day, spaced every 2–3 hours in order to keep your body in an anabolic, muscle-building state at all times. Each meal should consist of high quality protein and complex carbohydrates.\n6) Increase Your Protein Intake.\nOf the 3 major nutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fats) protein is without a doubt the most important for those who are looking to gain muscle size and strength. Protein is found in literally every single one of the 30 trillion cells that your body is made up of and its main role is to build and repair body tissues. Without sufficient protein intake, it will be physically impossible for your body to synthesize a significant amount of lean muscle mass. If your body were a house, think of protein as the bricks. A general guideline is to consume 1–1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight each day from high quality sources such as fish, poultry, eggs, beef, milk, peanut butter and cottage cheese.\n7) Increase Your Water Intake.\nIf you want a simple, easy and highly effective way to maximize your muscle gains, drinking more water is it. Water plays so many vital roles in the body and its importance cannot be overstated. In fact, your muscles alone are made up of 70% water! Not only will drinking more water cause your muscles to appear fuller and more vascular, but it will also increase your strength as well. Research has shown that merely a 3–4% drop in your body’s water levels can impact muscle contractions by 10–20%! Aim to consume 0.6 ounces for every pound of bodyweight each day for optimal gains.\n8) Be Consistent!\nConsistency is everything. Those who make the greatest gains in muscular size and strength are the ones who are able to implement the proper techniques on a highly consistent basis. Simply knowing is not enough, you must apply!\nBuilding muscle is a result of the cumulative effect of small steps. Sure, performing 1 extra rep on your bench press will not make a huge difference to your overall results, and neither will consuming a single meal. However, over the long haul, all of those extra reps you perform and all of those small meals you consume will decide your overall success. If you work hard and complete all of your muscle-building tasks in a consistent fashion, all of those individual steps will equate to massive gains in overall size and strength.", "mediaType": "text/plain" } }, "id": "https://www.minds.com/api/activitypub/users/1225564839871520777/entities/urn:activity:1247237840495677440/activity" }, { "type": "Create", "actor": "https://www.minds.com/api/activitypub/users/1225564839871520777", "object": { "type": "Note", "id": "https://www.minds.com/api/activitypub/users/1225564839871520777/entities/urn:activity:1247111748067119104", "attributedTo": "https://www.minds.com/api/activitypub/users/1225564839871520777", "content": "Even though exercise is one of the best ways to improve your ability to deal with stress, exercise itself is stressful.

However, eating them isn't always practical or desirable. That's where juices come in. Drinking a glass of juice is sometimes easier and more enjoyable than eating.<br /><br />But not all juices are created equal when it comes to getting the health benefits necessary for menopausal women. Some may contain too much sugar or not enough of the necessary vitamins. Here are 6 of the best:<br /><br />Apple Juice<br /><br />The saying, \"An apple a day, keeps the doctor away\", is not too far from the truth. Apple juice contains nutrients that helps women build strong immune responses. If given the choice, choose apple juice with some pulp in it. This kind is not only higher in antioxidants but it contains fiber which is important for proper gastrointestinal funtioning.<br /><br />Cranberry Juice<br /><br />Cranberry juice has long been touted as helpful in preventing urinary tract infections. Cranberry juice is also packed with antioxidants and vitamins C and E.<br /><br />Beet Juice<br /><br />Beets are particularly good for post-menopausal women because they contain powerful antioxidants that can lower their risk for heart disease and inflammation. Beets also contain inorganic nitrates which have been shown to lower blood pressure.<br /><br />Prune Juice<br /><br />Prune Juice has long had a reputation for being a cure for constipation due to its fiber content. However, the benefits of prune juice do not stop there. Prunes are rich in B vitamins which can improve metabolism, increase production of red blood cells, and improve skin and eye health.<br /><br />Pomegranate Juice<br /><br />Pomegrantes are a good source of Vitamin K, a vitamin that is essential to blood clotting, bone building and heart health.<br /><br />Orange Juice<br /><br />Orange juice is a major source for Vitamin C. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is an important nutrient that is vital to the development of all bodily tissues. Additionally, Vitamin C has been proven to be a boost to the immune system and is important for the absorption of iron and the formation of collagen in the body. This is especially important as we age since these functions are usually affected by the aging process. Lastly, Vitamin C may help lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.<br /><br />While all the juices listed have health benefits, they can also have high sugar content. So for the best results, opt for fresh juice when you can and avoid added sugar.<br /><br />So the next time your plate is lacking the recommended fruits and vegetables, pick up a tall glass of juice to help get your health back on track.<br /><a href=\"https://www.minds.com/search?f=top&amp;t=all&amp;q=healthylifestyle\" title=\"#healthylifestyle\" class=\"u-url hashtag\" target=\"_blank\">#healthylifestyle</a> <a href=\"https://www.minds.com/search?f=top&amp;t=all&amp;q=healthylife\" title=\"#healthylife\" class=\"u-url hashtag\" target=\"_blank\">#healthylife</a> <a href=\"https://www.minds.com/search?f=top&amp;t=all&amp;q=healthylifestyles\" title=\"#healthylifestyles\" class=\"u-url hashtag\" target=\"_blank\">#healthylifestyles</a> <a href=\"https://www.minds.com/search?f=top&amp;t=all&amp;q=healthylifestile\" title=\"#healthylifestile\" class=\"u-url hashtag\" target=\"_blank\">#healthylifestile</a> <a href=\"https://www.minds.com/search?f=top&amp;t=all&amp;q=healthylifehappylife\" title=\"#healthylifehappylife\" class=\"u-url hashtag\" target=\"_blank\">#healthylifehappylife</a><br /><br /><br />", "to": [ "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public" ], "cc": [ "https://www.minds.com/api/activitypub/users/1225564839871520777/followers" ], "tag": [], "url": "https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/1246516755534774272", "published": "2021-06-01T17:32:32+00:00", "source": { "content": "\n\nAs mature women with busy lives we often find it difficult to eat right.

Is life-giving air the full story on breathing? This article takes common breathing advice and gives reasons for its efficacy. It goes further and provides essential elements in breathing technique for better health.<br /><br />Breathing is perhaps one of the most centrally integrated autonomous behaviours that reach well beyond a simple filling of the lungs. Garcia AJ writes in 2011:<br /><br />\"Breathing emerges through complex network interactions involving neurons distributed throughout the nervous system. The respiratory rhythm generating network is composed of micro networks functioning within larger networks to generate distinct rhythms and patterns that characterize breathing.\"<br /><br />The outworking of Garcia's study can best be observed when a person is affected by strong emotions like fear & anger.<br /><br />Mainstream advice for breathing is to override the autonomous control and consciously inhale deeply through the nose and exhale through the mouth slowly with pursed lips.<br /><br />Dr Carla Naumburg PhD of 'Ready, Set, Breathe' fame suggests breathing exercises bring mindfulness into daily life. By remembering to breathe, a space is created to restore calm and reduce blood pressure and stress hormones so creating opportunity of situation control.<br /><br />Professor Konstantin Buteyko (Russia 1923-2003) is credited for a technique characterised by slow and reduced breathing combined with spaced pauses of no breathing allowing Carbon Dioxide to build up to bursting point.<br /><br />Breathing is a relevant component of the practice of Yoga. Yoga breathing techniques typically accompany either different poses or some form of meditation. Thus it is difficult to separate and ascribe the result to the breathing, poses or the meditation.<br /><br />Pandit JJ, in 2003 tested 3 breathing techniques for optimum Oxygen uptake, as follows:<br /><br />1. Three (3) minutes of tidal breathing<br /><br />2. Four (4) deep breaths taken within 30 seconds<br /><br />3. Eight (8) deep breaths taken within 60 seconds<br /><br />The Oxygen uptake was the same for Items 1. & 3 and a higher efficacy than for Item 2. His work illustrates that breathing technique is important.<br /><br />Enter Nitric Oxide (NO), a colourless gas with a half-life of merely seconds. Nitric Oxide (NO) was named \"molecule of the year\" in 1994 by Science Magazine.<br /><br />In 1998 the Karolinska Institute awarded the Nobel prize to US pharmacologists Robert F. Furchgott, PhD, Ferid Murad, MD, PhD, and Louis J. Ignarro, PhD for their discoveries of the role of Nitric Oxide (NO) as being a signalling molecule in the cardiovascular system.<br /><br />NO relaxes the smooth muscle in arteries providing a larger flow area for blood, thus reducing blood pressure and bring more nutrients to where they are needed. The importance of NO in the human bodily functions cannot be overstated. Even though 1000's of research papers have been written, World research goes on. NO is implicated in heart health, lower blood pressure, better quality of sleep and even erectile dysfunction.<br /><br />NO is produced in the sinuses, the biggest being the maxillary sinuses either side of the nose. They are closed chambers except for a small soft-tissue opening called the ossium which is open the olfactory airways.<br /><br />There is no right or wrong way to breathe - the autonomous brain function sees to it that you get adequate oxygen into your system. However, there are ways to breathe to get maximum NO into your system. Here are 7 pointers to help get this amazing gas into your bloodstream.<br /><br />1. BREATHE IN FAST THROUGH YOUR NOSE.<br /><br />Nose hair and constricted nose ducting ensure there is a negative pressure in the airways. This partial vacuum causes the sinuses to deliver a small amount of NO-laden air into your inhaled breath. The harder you breathe in the more NO the sinuses will deliver.<br /><br />2. BLOCK ONE NOSTRIL AND BREATHE IN.<br /><br />Blocking one nostril and in turn the other nostril will increase the partial vacuum to cause NO-laden air to be injected into your inhaled breath.<br /><br />3. BLOCK BOTH NOSTRILS AND TRY TO BREATHE IN.<br /><br />Close both nostrils and try to inhale. This creates the greatest amount of vacuum in your respiratory system allowing NO-laden air to be sucked from the sinuses. Of course you can only do this for a short time before resuming normal breathing.<br /><br />4. BREATHE OUT SLOWLY THROUGH YOUR MOUTH.<br /><br />NO needs time to be absorbed into your bloodstream. Accordingly it is good to hold your breath for as long as it is convenient. Alternatively exhale slowly to allow the lungs time to absorb the NO.<br /><br />5. HUM OR SING<br /><br />Lundberg et al showed in 2003 that humming increases exhaled NO by 700%. Other researcher found an even greater increase in exhaled NO during humming. Problem is that it is difficult to inhale while humming. Thus the sequence suggested is to hum for 3 seconds then immediately inhale..<br /><br />6. PRETEND TO SNORE<br /><br />To overcome the problem of simultaneously humming and inhaling, it is suggested to pretend to snore, making the sound as if you were snoring. The snoring sound frequencies are in the range of the maxillary sinuses natural frequencies approximately 110 to 350 Hz. Allowing the maxillary sinuses to resonate will pulse NO-laden air into the inhaled breath volume. Because snoring is an inhaling manoeuvre the NO will reach the lungs in greater volume.<br /><br />7. VALSALVA MANOEUVRE<br /><br />During a descent procedure in an aeroplane headaches are often avoided by use of the Valsalva manoeuvre. This manoeuvre involves closing both nostrils while attempting to exhale until the ear drums 'pop'. This has the effect of pressurizing the sinuses which upon subsequent inhalation release the pressure and inject NO-laden air into the olfactory airways.<br /><br />FAQ's<br /><br />A. NO in the sinuses is a finite resource and can be depleted. How can it be replenished? Eat plenty of food rich in Nitrates eg Beetroot, Fenugreek, etc and give your body time to convert the Nitrates into NO.<br /><br />B. Why not breathe in NO gas like they do for babies with pulmonary hypertension? The dosage of NO in a medical setting is carefully controlled. Exposure of animals to NO has caused drowsiness, unconsciousness and death.<br /><br />C. Why not sit in a high traffic area and breathe in the NO produced by cars?

Is life-giving air the full story on breathing? This article takes common breathing advice and gives reasons for its efficacy. It goes further and provides essential elements in breathing technique for better health.\n\nBreathing is perhaps one of the most centrally integrated autonomous behaviours that reach well beyond a simple filling of the lungs. Garcia AJ writes in 2011:\n\n\"Breathing emerges through complex network interactions involving neurons distributed throughout the nervous system. The respiratory rhythm generating network is composed of micro networks functioning within larger networks to generate distinct rhythms and patterns that characterize breathing.\"\n\nThe outworking of Garcia's study can best be observed when a person is affected by strong emotions like fear & anger.\n\nMainstream advice for breathing is to override the autonomous control and consciously inhale deeply through the nose and exhale through the mouth slowly with pursed lips.\n\nDr Carla Naumburg PhD of 'Ready, Set, Breathe' fame suggests breathing exercises bring mindfulness into daily life. By remembering to breathe, a space is created to restore calm and reduce blood pressure and stress hormones so creating opportunity of situation control.\n\nProfessor Konstantin Buteyko (Russia 1923-2003) is credited for a technique characterised by slow and reduced breathing combined with spaced pauses of no breathing allowing Carbon Dioxide to build up to bursting point.\n\nBreathing is a relevant component of the practice of Yoga. Yoga breathing techniques typically accompany either different poses or some form of meditation. Thus it is difficult to separate and ascribe the result to the breathing, poses or the meditation.\n\nPandit JJ, in 2003 tested 3 breathing techniques for optimum Oxygen uptake, as follows:\n\n1. Three (3) minutes of tidal breathing\n\n2. Four (4) deep breaths taken within 30 seconds\n\n3. Eight (8) deep breaths taken within 60 seconds\n\nThe Oxygen uptake was the same for Items 1. & 3 and a higher efficacy than for Item 2. His work illustrates that breathing technique is important.\n\nEnter Nitric Oxide (NO), a colourless gas with a half-life of merely seconds. Nitric Oxide (NO) was named \"molecule of the year\" in 1994 by Science Magazine.\n\nIn 1998 the Karolinska Institute awarded the Nobel prize to US pharmacologists Robert F. Furchgott, PhD, Ferid Murad, MD, PhD, and Louis J. Ignarro, PhD for their discoveries of the role of Nitric Oxide (NO) as being a signalling molecule in the cardiovascular system.\n\nNO relaxes the smooth muscle in arteries providing a larger flow area for blood, thus reducing blood pressure and bring more nutrients to where they are needed. The importance of NO in the human bodily functions cannot be overstated. Even though 1000's of research papers have been written, World research goes on. NO is implicated in heart health, lower blood pressure, better quality of sleep and even erectile dysfunction.\n\nNO is produced in the sinuses, the biggest being the maxillary sinuses either side of the nose. They are closed chambers except for a small soft-tissue opening called the ossium which is open the olfactory airways.\n\nThere is no right or wrong way to breathe - the autonomous brain function sees to it that you get adequate oxygen into your system. However, there are ways to breathe to get maximum NO into your system. Here are 7 pointers to help get this amazing gas into your bloodstream.\n\n1. BREATHE IN FAST THROUGH YOUR NOSE.\n\nNose hair and constricted nose ducting ensure there is a negative pressure in the airways. This partial vacuum causes the sinuses to deliver a small amount of NO-laden air into your inhaled breath. The harder you breathe in the more NO the sinuses will deliver.\n\n2. BLOCK ONE NOSTRIL AND BREATHE IN.\n\nBlocking one nostril and in turn the other nostril will increase the partial vacuum to cause NO-laden air to be injected into your inhaled breath.\n\n3. BLOCK BOTH NOSTRILS AND TRY TO BREATHE IN.\n\nClose both nostrils and try to inhale. This creates the greatest amount of vacuum in your respiratory system allowing NO-laden air to be sucked from the sinuses. Of course you can only do this for a short time before resuming normal breathing.\n\n4. BREATHE OUT SLOWLY THROUGH YOUR MOUTH.\n\nNO needs time to be absorbed into your bloodstream. Accordingly it is good to hold your breath for as long as it is convenient. Alternatively exhale slowly to allow the lungs time to absorb the NO.\n\n5. HUM OR SING\n\nLundberg et al showed in 2003 that humming increases exhaled NO by 700%. Other researcher found an even greater increase in exhaled NO during humming. Problem is that it is difficult to inhale while humming. Thus the sequence suggested is to hum for 3 seconds then immediately inhale..\n\n6. PRETEND TO SNORE\n\nTo overcome the problem of simultaneously humming and inhaling, it is suggested to pretend to snore, making the sound as if you were snoring. The snoring sound frequencies are in the range of the maxillary sinuses natural frequencies approximately 110 to 350 Hz. Allowing the maxillary sinuses to resonate will pulse NO-laden air into the inhaled breath volume. Because snoring is an inhaling manoeuvre the NO will reach the lungs in greater volume.\n\n7. VALSALVA MANOEUVRE\n\nDuring a descent procedure in an aeroplane headaches are often avoided by use of the Valsalva manoeuvre. This manoeuvre involves closing both nostrils while attempting to exhale until the ear drums 'pop'. This has the effect of pressurizing the sinuses which upon subsequent inhalation release the pressure and inject NO-laden air into the olfactory airways.\n\nFAQ's\n\nA. NO in the sinuses is a finite resource and can be depleted. How can it be replenished? Eat plenty of food rich in Nitrates eg Beetroot, Fenugreek, etc and give your body time to convert the Nitrates into NO.\n\nB. Why not breathe in NO gas like they do for babies with pulmonary hypertension? The dosage of NO in a medical setting is carefully controlled. Exposure of animals to NO has caused drowsiness, unconsciousness and death.\n\nC. Why not sit in a high traffic area and breathe in the NO produced by cars? Motor vehicle exhaust gases do contain NO. However, exhaust gases are a toxic cocktail of other gases such as Carbon Monoxide. The risk of poisoning far outweighs any benefits to be gained.\n\nAfter about 5 years of buying women's wear from China, India, Thailand, Bangladesh and Indonesia we found a need to ensure supply is according to the following:\n• No child labour\n• No Azo dyes that cause cancer\n• No harsh processing chemicals that hurt the environment.\n• Fabric from renewable sources\n• Natural fire retardant fabric\n\nWe went a little further, and asked ourselves the question:\nWhat can we add to our range of clothing that enhances wellness in the wearer?\nWe came up with some surprising answers.

Before going any further, I want to clearly state that it is my position that everyone should engage in a cardiovascular exercise of their choice for 5 to 10 minutes prior to any workout, be it a cardiovascular, resistance or flexibility workout. This is vitally important for several reasons as a proper, light-intensity cardiovascular exercise will warm up the muscles, ligaments, joints and tendons that will be used more intensely in the following workout routine. Warming up with cardio also increases the core temperature slightly, increases circulation, slightly elevates the heart rate and helps to prepare the heart for an increased workload, it helps increase lung functioning and helps you to mentally focus in on the upcoming workout routine. The most important advantage to warming up with light intensity cardio is the substantial decrease in risk of injury. If the body is not properly warmed up, you are much more likely to experience an injury to a muscle, joint, ligament or tendon.<br /><br />Now back to the question of whether you should do cardiovascular exercise prior to or after a resistance workout? There is no single best answer here and instead, you should evaluate your individual fitness goals. If you goal is to increase endurance, stamina or overall cardiovascular health, then I suggest doing your cardio workout prior to weight and resistance training. By doing the cardio workout first (after your 5 to 10 minute warm up of course), you are able to engage in a more intense cardio session, which possibly might include some intervals in which you really push up to your lactic acid threshold or VO2 max level. It is much less likely that you would be able to achieve high intensity cardiovascular work after you have engaged in a weight training session. So, in short if your goal is to increase cardiovascular fitness levels, you should perform cardio workouts prior to resistance training.<br /><br />On the other hand, if your goal is fat and weight loss, a current mode of thinking in the fitness community is by doing a cardiovascular workout after a resistance workout, you increases the rate of fat metabolism (fat burn as it is often referred to as). The theory is that by engaging in an intense resistance workout, you will deplete the glycogen stores in the muscles during this workout. Once the glycogen stores are depleted, the body begins to utilize fats in the body for fuel. Endurance athletes have long know this, yet typically in order for this to occur in endurance training, an athlete has to continuously run for approximately 90 minutes to fully deplete the muscles of glycogen. Therefore, I remain somewhat skeptical that many average people working out are pushing themselves to the point of glycogen depletion during their resistance workout, particularly workouts of less than an hour in duration. For more advanced trainers, I do believe that it is possible and therefore can be an effective means of decreasing body fat perhaps for these individuals.<br /><br />I tend to look at it like this, if you are engaging in a cardiovascular and resistance workout on the same day back-to-back, one or the other will be of a lesser intensity level naturally. Again, evaluate your personal fitness goals before deciding whether to do your cardio workouts before or after resistance training. If you are trying to build muscle, you want to have as much muscle strength as you can available for your resistance workouts, therefore doing cardio before weight training would be counterproductive to your muscle building goals. If you are looking to gain endurance or heart health, place your focus on the cardio workouts and do them first. Remember, regardless of which you end up doing first, it is more important to properly warm up with a minimum of 5 to 10 minutes of cardio (even if it is only a brisk walk on the treadmill) in order to prepare the body for the workouts ahead, to get your head in the right space in order to bang out a productive workout, and most importantly to decrease the risk of injury.
