Fitness Advice – 1-en-1 Physical Corner

We already know that not exercising is not a good way of living, but a recent study carried out by Kyle Mandsager, MD along with his two MD colleagues proved that: leading a desk-bound life without any activity is more harmful than smoking, heart ailment, and even diabetes.

Doesn’t this sound scary?

It’s important that you include any kind of activity in your daily schedule, and take care of your health more seriously.

The Bad Effects of NOT Exercising Enough

Dr. Wael Jabar working in the Cleveland Clinic mentioned how the results were confusing and shocking in the first place. He adds, ‘being unfit on the treadmill or failing at a basic exercise stress test has worse effects on the health than being a diabetic or a smoker.’

Bad Effects of NOT Exercising

So are the risk factors of not exercising really high as experts claim?

Yes, they are. Still, they depend on a lot of factors like climate, a person’s overall health condition, lifestyle, and much more.

In the United States, it’s the Cardiovascular disease and diabetes which are the most expensive health issues reported. Therefore, it is always better if the patients and people are advised to take proper care of the health and exercise daily for maintaining the fitness – instead of paying a hefty amount of money for a diagnosis.

Another discovery made with the study is that people are fit to live a longer life.

The benefit of exercise remains the same across different ages in both males and females, where Jaber adds that the exercise benefits are more noticeable in women. People who don’t exercise are at higher risk double than a person who has a kidney failure. You can see the level of risk here, isn’t it?

Jaber later put another light on this study saying that they studied on the patients first, carried a treadmill test for figuring out what they actually do at home. It was the experts who made out the level of the patient’s activity instead of recording the self-reports made by the patients (which is usually carried out).

Our sedentary, modern lifestyle has definitely contributed to the rise in the heart diseases, and all of them are reversible indeed. We just have to push our bodies, and let them move all the time.

5 Rules on Wearing Jewellery during the Workout Session : Yes or No to Bling?

July 5, 2018July 23, 2018 Armina D'Aoust Comment(0)

Are you the newly married hitting the gym after a gap? If yes, then you probably won’t be able to give up on the wedding ring, isn’t it? You get into a confusion whether or not to wear the ring during the workout.

The answer is simple, Yes – you could wear ornaments but there are certain points to be taken care of.

That’s exactly what I am going to list out here. Watch out!

Jewellery during the Workout Session

Rules on Wearing Jewellery during the Workout Session

I have seen many ladies coming into the gym with jewellery, and other long chains. Though in many gyms, they have already added this point in the rules. Point is, the chains and other rings may turn out to be risk factor while you are performing the work-out on the machines.

Just for example, if you are wearing rings and lifting weights, then it can cause some pressure on the fingers. There are chances of injury!

There are others who are so obsessed with the bling that they cannot say no to it. So, you could simply put them aside or keep them inside the bags during the workout time.

#1 For the Weight Training

Rings are a big no while you are working around with the weights. It will better if you keep the rings at home, and then go to the gym.

#2 Look at the Chain Length

I know how much love the old chain you have got, and you never miss out in wearing that whenever you step out of your house. But things are a bit different here. If you are wearing a chain with a pendant on it, and then you head on to the treadmill. As you speed up the running, the pendant will bounce up and down and it may even hit your face.

Who wants that? You could either keep the chain aside or shorten the length of the chain while exercising.

#3 Unfriend with Nickel

This metal is used in many of the ornaments, and they usually leave a green mark on the skin. What is the thing that causes it? Sweat! So, you get it now. If you wear nickel jewellery during the work-out, you will end up with green patches on the skin, and it could create skin rash too.

#4 Go for the Studs

Keeping it minimal and small, should be your motto as you get ready for the gym. Studs are a good option though for the earrings. No need to get those heavy or large earrings for the workout, and wear a simple stud ornament. Still, leave an elegant mark of yourselves.

#5 Wearable Tech, if you have got!

This could be a costly thing, but you could actually replace your ordinary jewellery with the wearable technology. So if you have got any such wearable tech ornament, then you can show it off and wear them while working out. These days trackers are made available in a wearable form, which helps in maintaining both the fashion as well as help you with keeping a track of your progress.

3 Amazing Fitness Tips from the Olympic Athletes that you Must Try Out!

July 1, 2018August 29, 2018 Armina D'Aoust Comment(0)

Do you wish and dream of becoming fit like our Winter Olympic Athletes one day?

Well, sitting and doing nothing about the health, won’t do any benefit at all. You need to work really hard for that, but there are certain tips for someone who wants to get started with this. Let’s check them out in detail.

Fitness Tips from the Olympic Athletes – Revealed

When we say Fitness and the health benefits, it is not just about getting in the right shape and building up with the cardio. But one thing which most of the people miss out is the flexibility and the balance inside the body.

You all are aware that Winter Olympic is played on the ice or snow, and that requires the players to be more fit and strong than other ordinary athletes. But it goes pretty much the same for any other common person, you need to have a good stability and flexibility. Some young athletes have questions about how to be hydrated; for them you have to drink water.

Not just in the gaming perspective, but it is important that you maintain yourself for adventures, skiing, cycling, and whatever that you wish to do.

Following are the Top 3 Tips shared by the Olympic Players for good health:

1. Don’t underestimate the power of a healthy Breakfast.

We are never going to be morning-person, ever in our life! The athletes which we came in contact with and others too take their breakfast at the earliest. Eating junk will only create problems, and if taken in the morning then you are more likely setting the game all wrong for yourself.

So, make some changes. Be less on the phones, and prepare a proper meal for breakfast. Make coffee, and have a balanced diet with the proteins and carbs included in it.

2. Be on good terms with the Carbs.

People these days tend to avoid carbs in their diet, resulting in health issue. This is because carbohydrates are like the energy house, and without them, the body won’t be able to perform activities. Go for a personalized diet, which is suitable for your body and learn about the carbs which are essential for your body.

3. No stress, and sleep for long hours.

Which is the best way to de-stress your body? Do you say Sleep? Exactly!

Sleep is an important factor and something which should not be compromised in any way. Have a good sleep, set a fixed exercising time and keep the workout on, followed by the right diet.

These three are the key points which you can note down for having a balanced yet healthy diet. To have more insights about our writings and other posts, visit us at 1-en-1.
