This year, you want to find yourself an activity! But what sport to do to be sure to stick to it? Make your choice according to your profile and your desires.
1. I want to slim down quickly
Combine activities of Muscle and cardio strengthening. Perform 3 to 4 lessons per week maximum to grant you rest. Twice a week, sessions of 1 hour when you strengthen your muscles via basic but complete movements. For the other two courses, opt for HIIT, brief but high intensity training (from 20 to 30 minutes). This principle makes it possible to burn many calories, even at rest after activity. Depending on your desires, you can do sessions at home or in the gym. All this obviously associated with a good diet without forgetting to drink a lot.
2. I want to relax after work
Yoga is your best ally! It allows you to recharge your batteries while doing your body good thanks to the different movements offered. Pilates is also to be adopted. This gentle activity is ideal for the back and the abdominal strap. Practiced regularly, it transforms the silhouette without any suffering. Sophrology, stretching and body balance also allow you to move while adopting the Zen attitude.
3. I want to outdo myself
The most effective activity to exceed your limits is cycling. Look at the side of the Body Combat lessons that combine fitness and combat sports, body attacks or boxing, guaranteed perspiration!
4. I want to play sports while having fun
The dance lessons are done for you! Think of zumba or body jam if you have the rhythm in your skin.
5. I only want to lose weight of thighs
It is very difficult to lose weight in a targeted way. The loss or weight gain is mainly genetic. Some people take belly while others are more easily growing thighs. It is therefore important to make efforts that will work metabolism in general. We have to do activities where we will spend calories. Weight loss and fat loss will be a balance between the calories ingested and the ones you will spend.
6. I don’t like group lessons
Do you prefer to sweat alone in your corner? Help applications on your mobile that allow you to challenge yourself and individual sports practices such as running. Do not forget the fitness videos available on YouTube. In the gym, you can favor activities on the bodybuilding set (racing carpet, elliptical velo …) but be sure to be a minimum framed so as not to hurt yourself. Contact the club coach who will advise you according to your profile.
7. I resume sport after a long break
For a smooth recovery of sport, a 45 -minute session, counting the warm -up, is sufficient. Opt for moderate activities. The easiest way to start is to favor group lessons that offer supervision with a coach. Having a planned and planned course in advance also allows you not to demotivate yourself at the last moment.
First session: Muscle reinforcement type Be fit without impact which will allow an overview of basic movements, find bodily sensations and have slight aches.
Second session: Cardio-training type bicycle (rhythm stroller), in the gym or outside. The idea is to sweat slightly so as not to be discouraged and activate the heart rate.
Third session: Hatha Yoga type mobility and stretching to refocus on oneself and feel the detecting effects.
Start with a frequency of 3 times a week, always keeping 1 or 2 days of rest between each session.
In any case, be patient! You will see the results on your figure from 3 months of regular physical activity.
