Exercising in The Heat

As we rapidly approach summer, the days are getting warmer and the sun even hotter. Train sensibly!
Ensure that when you go to your training sessions, whether they are with your trainer or on your own you are adequately prepared. A cool drink, hat, appropriate clothing and the good old 30+ sun cream are used at all times when outdoors.
If at any stage you do start to feel unwell while exercising stop and inform your trainer immediately!
Remember when training you need to be aware you are trying to create a positive change on your body. This means knowing when sometimes you shouldn't trainer... Like at 2:00pm in the afternoon in 40 something degrees heat! You will be in better shape next time you train if you move this session rather than push through like a person possessed!

Myth Busters #28

Rapid Weight Loss, Is Not Harmful
Weight loss is something that cannot be rushed; it is a process of changing your body shape and therefore requires time for your body to adapt. Therefore, prolonged rapid weight loss of more than 1.5kg per week should be carefully monitored as this can lead to increased risk of gallstones. The very low kilojoule eating plans that usually accompany rapid weight loss can also lead to heart rhythm abnormalities.
So just remember that although at times you may not be losing weight as quickly as you would like, in order to get the best health results that are maintainable, slow and steady weight loss is far more beneficial than rapid weight loss.

Mythbusters #27 - Running is bad for your knees

There are many people out there who are avoiding running because they believe that the constant impact is bad for their knees, and may lead to problems later in life. However, a 14-year Stanford University study of 800 runners and non-runners who were approaching old age showed that former runners had 25 per cent less knee and other musculoskeletal pain than people who had led sedentary lives. These findings add to the evidence that ailments associated with ageing can be reduced by participating in regular aerobic exercise.
