Yoga reduces stress and allows you to focus by controlling your breathing, simple meditation and body poses. Opt for dynamic stretches instead of static stretches. Add elastic bands to your routine. CrossFit gyms (called “boxes”) are very popular in terms of community and friendly competition.
We all do the same training together (or variations of the same training), which brings out both the competitive spirit and the support of the group. Record your statistics after each workout and you strive to exceed your personal best. Yoga is an ancient Indian practice originally created to prepare the body for meditation. It uses poses, deep stretches, breathing techniques and body awareness to help you relax and develop strength and flexibility.
Yoga is a wonderful way to recover, both physically and mentally, but that doesn't mean it's easy. You can try hot yoga (yoga in a room with a temperature of 90 to 110 degrees), vinyasa yoga (fast-paced, flowing yoga), or slower, more traditional varieties. Spinning classes involve continuous biking on exercise bikes, usually with upbeat music and an instructor who guides the training. You usually go between periods of running at full speed and periods of rest at low intensity.
Switching between the two (called high-intensity interval training, or HIIT) is amazing for cardiovascular exercise and initiates fat loss more effectively than many other training styles. To increase hair density in slow-twitch fibers, or type 1 fibers, opt for resistance training. For the lower body, it could be running, cycling, or using one of the many cardiovascular machines. For large back muscles, a rowing machine works well.
