FITNESS

So speaking of fitness, we could have used the tag of “physical fitness” but we didn’t, because it is not the only aspect of fitness. Fitness is concerned with the body, mind, and soul. A perfect blend of all three can carve out miracles for you.

Stay tuned and read further to know about each aspect in detail:

 

PHYSICAL FITNESS

Speaking of physical fitness, it has a lot of different definitions depending upon person to person. People have different goals regarding their fitness. To a person with a job, fitness may be defined as being on a treadmill for 30 minutes every day or hitting the gym for an hour daily. For an athlete, fitness may mean being able to run 100 meters in 10 seconds or lifting a bench press of 100 kg. To a dancer, physical fitness may be concerned only with flexibility. However, there are different routines and techniques that help you quiet well to get started on your journey of transformation. There are numerous options you can opt for to get started, like 

HIIT

High-Intensity Interval Training [ HIIT] is a great routine for your cardiovascular fitness, fat loss, and strength building. These workouts are great for the people who don’t have time to hit the gym or are having problems losing weight. This workout takes hardly 20-30 minutes. The exercises are segmented in ways to target the whole body. Mostly the time range per set is 45 seconds on and then 15 seconds rest. Doing these workouts 3 times a week can burn so many calories. We advise HIIT workouts to the people who have either started their journey or to the people who are facing problems losing weight. A good diet with the necessary macronutrients is very important to see results.

CALISTHENICS

This is a great way to gain muscle mass and endurance at home with bodyweight exercises. Calisthenics is all about practicing the movements like the PUSH movements including PUSH-UPS, DIPS, SHOULDER PRESSES, the PULL movements like PULL-UPS, BICEP CURLS and SHRUGS, and the LEG movements like SQUATS, LUNGES, CALF RAISES. There are the most basic and primary movements in calisthenics. As someone slowly gets comfortable with these movements, they can switch to the more advanced movements like the PISTOL SQUATS, SINGLE HAND PUSH-UPS, CLAPPING PULL-UPS and many more. Calisthenics is great for people who because for some reason are not able to go to the gym. A normal ground and bars are enough for you to get started.

Before moving further, I would like you to notice that the above two workout routines and styles do not require any equipment or time as such. Still, have reasons not to work out?

WEIGHT TRAINING

This is something people start their fitness journey within INDIA, but it should not be that way. The reason being that weight training requires some basic strength in order to handle those weights properly. The right way would be to at least train calisthenics for 6 months and then switch to weight training. This in itself is a very huge field of study and if you start writing everything down it may take up to 800 pages to explain it in detail. Basically people train with weights to add on extra muscle mass or to become more explosive. Weight training is a lifestyle. It’s not about just hitting the gym and training hard. Your meals need to be on time and full of protein. You need to have a proper rest of 8 hours. When you train with weights, you tear your tissues in the muscle and when you take proper diet, the body uses the carbs and the protein to fix those broken tissues and this is how your body grows in size and strength.

CARDIO

It is the most known and practiced workout routine throughout the world. People love early morning walks and some sports or a little bit of treadmill. A person should do cardio training but there are better options like the HIIT and the CALISTHENICS training. Cardio takes up more time and yields fewer results compared to HIIT.

A good workout routine is one that includes all of these in proportion. A person should be able to run, lift, and handle their body weight too. There are a lot of different routines designed to target all these segments. Those workout routines consist of diet plans and exercise. The time frame for exercise is usually 1-1.5 hours. The routines are different for different individuals. To have your own personalized routine mail us on workondream80@gmail.com.

MENTAL FITNESS

A lot of people think about the physical fitness aspect but not much pay attention to the mental fitness aspect. So what exactly is mental fitness? 

Keeping the mind in a perfectly fine condition and having a good command over it is called mental fitness. You need to train your mind to be strong and flexible. Every idea is born two times, once in the mind of the inventor and later in real life. So how does someone keep their mind fit? 

We get thousands of thoughts every day. We somehow need to figure a way to keep our mind focused and have the ability and clarity to think, analyze, and interpret.

The few things people can do to keep their minds fit are:

READ

Now reading is something everyone must do. By reading you get to know the experiences of others. You develop a thought process by reading and interpreting data. You also get answers to all questions of life by reading. In today’s time it’s very difficult to find a good mentor. So the best mentor you can have is a book. Develop a habit of daily reading and you’ll notice changes coming in your lifestyle.

 

KARATE

A lot of you must be thinking why I say karate. Karate teaches you a lot. It teaches you to be extremely focused and to channelize all your energy into one a specific part of your body.

MATHEMATICS

Maths may not help you in real life to a great extent, like a lot of you must have questions like where is the use of trigonometry or integration in a normal person’s life. What mathematics actually teaches you is to face your problems and give 20 shots at the same problem and keep giving try till you solve it. It makes your mind SHARP.

AVOID UNNECESSARY SPEAKING

This is a little behavioral point, but when you don’t speak much, you tend to listen much. When you’re speaking, you’re only repeating what you know but when you listen, to mind gets new information.

Having a good blend of a fit mind and body can help you achieve anything you wish for. The next aspect is the most important factor to achieve greatness

 

CLEAN SOUL

Having a clean soul is the most important aspect of this journey to having a fit and healthy life. We are noting asking you to attain spirituality in order to clean your soul. What we mean here is that you should have control over your emotions. The soul of a person is highly affected by their emotions, their faith in something, and the work they do. A clean soul helps you stay real.

Read the last statement again.

When you desire something and ask the universe for it, the universe looks for how real your emotion is towards your demand and what is the price that you’re willing to pay to get it. How much faith you have in yourself that you’ll get it. Real feelings and emotions are the rarest things seen in today’s time.

Steps to clean your soul:

DO YOGA

I am not referring to stretching and exercise. I’m referring to deep MEDITATION and SADHNA. What I mean is that rather than looking outside, start looking inside. This will help you know what you actually want out of life.

MAINTAIN A DIARY

By maintaining a diary and writing your daily emotions and expressing your heart out, you’ll clearly know what’s going on in your life and the reason behind it. It would also help you track the changes that take place over time.

USE AFFIRMATION

Affirmation is feeding your mind with positive thoughts, by doing so you make your subconscious mind believe your dream to be true. The subconscious mind is very powerful and by using it in your favor you can attain anything.

DON’T LIE UNNECESSARILY

Lying is important if done to prevent a greater harm, but never lie without a good enough reason. This will make your soul feel pure and real.

I encourage all of you reading this to go ahead and try FITNESS for the next 6 months of life. If done properly with a positive mindset, it would yield great results for all of you. I and my team are always at your service providing you with a lot of this stuff in detail, user guides that to either free of cost or at a very minimal charge.

There must be this thought in some people’s heads that what is the need to do all this? Life is going great without all this trouble too right.

So, let me tell you,

A person who has never had the taste of driving a Ferrari is always happy driving his Honda. 

Remember,

LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE OUT OF IT.
