Exercise Prescription
According to my physical fitness profile my strengths are the cardiovascular component and the body composition component. However, in order to improve my physical fitness as a whole I need to improve my muscular endurance and strength components and I also need to improve even more my flexibility. In order to maintain my strengths I need to keep working on my cardiovascular component as I have been doing so far. I need to keep running long distances, keep working out on the cross-trainer and doing aerobics. To keep my body composition I need to keep eating healthy. I eat salads, and I avoid junk (pizza, hamburgers, fried chicken, etc) food and sweets. On the other hand, I really need to improve my flexibility, which is low. In order to accomplish my goal, which is to be on the "good" rating, I plan to stretch every part of my body, especially the upper part. I think working with a partner will help me improve my flexibility instead of just working by myself. Even though my muscular strength and endurance is rated as "good," I would like to have improve it to "excellent." In order to achieve this goal, I plan to lift weights more often than usual and have a program that helps me during this accomplishme
Knee Bender: Stand with feet shoulder width apart, hands on hips, thumbs in the small of the back, and elbows back. Bend at the knees, lean a little forward at the waist with the head up, and slide the hands along the outside of the legs until the extended fingers reach the middle of the lower leg. Running: run a couple of laps in order to warm up knees also. 5. Advanced Back Extension: Start in the prone position, and extend arms straight out above the head. Work the lower back muscles by lifting opposite arm/leg combinations. This exercise should be repeated two times with 30 repetitions each. I plan to work on my muscular endurance just three times a week in order to recover my muscles tissues. It wouldn't be good to lift weights every day.
