The Brain Power Boost with Home Fitness Exercise Equipment : Brain Power

Article by Vanessa McGuigan

We have all heard about the connection between fitness and health, right? The benefits of exercising and getting fit seem endless. However, it seems to me that the people who are interested in it are usually the ones who are already doing it. A lot of those folks who could really benefit from being fit aren’t interested in it and therefore, aren’t the ones reading about fitness or looking up information. That said, I realize that I’m preaching to the choir here, but I appreciate the fact that you’re reading this in the first place.

Exercise, particularly aerobic exercise can greatly affect the brain by boosting memory and cognitive processing speed. What does that mean? In short, exercise can create a stronger, faster brain. Cool, huh? And guess what? It works for children too. Studies conducted by the University of Illinois scientists concluded that children who have a higher level of aerobic activity processed information more efficiently.As a mom with school-aged children, this is very interesting to me. All sorts of family fitness activities are running through my brain right now….

However, if you’re new to this whole process, it’s best to start slowly and build up your stamina to avoid injury that is common to to people who try to do too much, too soon or people who exercise incorrectly.Of course, many people think about joining a gym or exercising outside, which is great….but you may also want to consider home fitness exercise equipment as well.

While doing aerobic exercises, you are getting much needed oxygen to your body. Aerobic is “with air” or “oxygen” by definition. So you will see a benefit at a cardiovascular and pulmonary level, as well as a difference in your waist line. These types of exercises are the most effective in burning calories as long as they last more than 30-45 minutes. Again, you’ll want to build up to level slowly. Aerobic exercise in 3 ten minute sessions are equally effective. Using a piece of home fitness exercise equipment is a great way to accomplish a few shorter workouts because you can hop on for 10 minutes at a time, then go back to whatever you were doing.

The process of anaerobic exercise is responsible for increasing muscle mass and for bone density. Examples of anaerobic exercises include weight lifting, sit ups, chin ups, squats, push ups, etc.The effectiveness of fitness trainings is closely related to their weekly practice.

For a whole body training, you should combine aerobic and anaerobic exercises. A good routine to get into is aerobic activity 3 times a week for 30-60 minutes each time, and at least twice a week for muscle building.

If you continue this routine of exercise, you’ll definitely start seeing results in one month. It’s possible to lose 2 inches of your size….maybe more.

A really good way to incorporate exercise into your life is through the use of home fitness exercise equipment. While the weather is nice, you can get outside and make the most of your surroundings, but in order to keep up with your routine, you’ll need to bring your exercising indoors at some point and time. After all your hard work during the spring and summer, you don’t want to fall off the wagon in the winter, right?

Let’s get out there and boost our health, stamina, and our brain power!!
