If you don't have time for exercise, you will sooner or later need to find time for ill health.
Recent increases in obesity, cancer & diabetes levels over the past 30 years would testify this.
More fat in the body = Less mitochondria/aerobic enzymes (which are found in muscles)
The idea is to increase exercise in order to decrease fat and in turn increase muscles mass within the body.
Do not decrease nutrition/calorie in-take. If anything - increase nutrition. You wouldn't fill a car with half a tank of petrol and expect to drive to Manchester and back. Eat more - Burn more
Aim to increase muscle & reduce fat. Weight WILL NOT change. What will change?
More muscle = More mitochondria/Aerobic enzymes
Mitochondria/Aerobic enzymes speed up metabolism in muscles. They break down fats/carbohydrates faster. The diet is therefore extremely important at this stage. We do not want to remove fats for example as these are a great source of energy and the body needs fats to survive
More muscles = greater ability to work aerobically. If we work aerobically this reduces the stress on our heart
We want to work aerobically for as long as we can in order to burn the fuels in our body. It also allows for less fatigue at lower intensities and better recovery which in turn gives us more energy
With improved fitness comes reduced stress on our heart = more efficient transport of nutrients to the body = healthier/happier (less stressed) individual
The key is to increase muscle mass at first in order for the other systems to kick in
Healthy amount of muscle = greater efficiency of the body.
Other systems then begin to kick in = Heart & Circulatory, Musculoskeletal, Nervous and Endocrine systems. All elements of the body that in some ways are beyond our control
A lot of p
eople are simply 'unconditioned' ie not exactly where they want to be
With 74Core fitness programmes the aim is to get you to where you need to be a lot quicker and a lot more efficiently by working at the correct intensities levels in order to get the best out of you :)
