Gyms, Ideas and recommendations.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ...

• The concept of "gym" has changed a lot over the years and now it is more than a place to get in shape, it has become a way of life for many.
• The great offer they offer is one of the great incentives for those who join the gym.
• Those who have decided to start exercising and those who think that doing sports is boring are ideal candidates to try the benefits of the gym.

A concept that has changed a lot over the years, in such a way that it has ceased to be a space where one was only going to burn calories and has become a "social" center, a club. Get together with friends to have a good time, look better, pamper yourself ... any reason works if in the end what you get is to gain health and well-being.

Much to choose from

There are many variables within a gym: they can offer group activities, they usually have rooms for this, as well as others to tone and strengthen muscles, a swimming pool ... and some even squash, paddle tennis, tennis courts ... Given all this offer, It seems impossible not to find the option that best suits the needs of each one.

Ideal for beginners

For those who want to start in the world of exercise, gyms are a good opportunity to assess and decide what one may like more or less and what their appropriate physical activity can be. In addition, these centers generally have technicians who advise and guide users based on their characteristics, situation and objective pursued.

And so as not to get bored ...

Having different types of equipment in a single space also facilitates the fact that you can train without getting bored, which is usually one of the most used "excuses" by those who, after a few months, decide to eliminate the gym fee from their expenses monthly.

It should not be seen as an expense but as an investment in health. When you have the possibility of training the different parts of the body in a combined way, boredom should not exist, but if it does, all possibilities should be explored. Following a routine in the room to tone up does not like everyone, it is true, but why not follow a directed toning class (type Body Pump) where the muscles work and does not involve sitting on a machine raising and lowering a pulley ?

In gyms, we will always find detractors of some activities and fans of others. Who has always worked with weights is not going to think about attending a directed class but it is not necessary, what you have to do is try to find what you feel comfortable with and be able to achieve the objective for which we have signed up to the club.

Great offer of directed classes

Regarding the directed classes, they can be found from the most moved, where dancing is combined with boxing movements, for example, or the, to the most "calm" but not less useful, such as stretching. They all have a place in good planning as long as they are appropriate for the person. That is why it is recommended that before starting the state of health from which one starts and the activity to be carried out be clear. A consultation with the doctor, who is often in the same center, can determine what will be the best guideline to avoid problems and achieve positive results.

GO TO PRACTICE

If you go to the gym five days a week, here we offer you a complete routine that you can follow. As always, it is convenient to consult with a technician according to your situation and the objective you want to achieve, but this planning can serve as a basis:

• Day 1: 20 ′ warm-up on foot or by bike + Body Combat guided class.
• Day 2: Room with 45-60 ′ aerobic work routine (combining treadmill, elliptical or bicycle) + toning on machines.
• Day 3: Warm-up for 30 'walking + Pilates / stretching class.
• Day 4: Room with 45-60 ′ aerobic work routine (combining treadmill, elliptical or bicycle) + toning on machines / abdominals.
• Day 5: Swimming or aquagym class.
