Put loose objects in their place

If you have anything on the treadmill, such as a water bottle or an iPod, make sure it’s in a stable spot, so it doesn’t bounce off and make your trip, Hoff says.

Remove Stuff

If you are someone, who likes to do more than just working out like Playing music, Reading books, Water bottle and more. You should remove the stuff, which you don’t need it. You should also make sure to check the Mp3 player is the stable place.

Don’t Panic

According to the experts, the majority of the people who lose their grip and they tend to hold then handle, which usually does not help them at all. It will only damage your body even more. Instead of panicking and holding the handles, you should simply let it go.

What Is The Volumetrics Diet?

written by Ketty Pen

Diets diets everywhere, and nothing can you eat.

With so many diets on the market today how are you supposed to choose the one that will work for you? Weight Watcher’s, Atkins, Jenny Craig, Blood Type, Volumetrics diet, Cabbage Soup, Hallelujah – I could list diets from here to the end of the page and you would be no more informed than you were when i began this article.

I picked out just one to talk about today, the Volumetrics diet. It caught my eye because it contains the word “volume”, which makes me think there will be a lot of something involved. Let’s find out, shall we?

The way the Volumetric diet works is this: you make choices to fight hunger based on the density levels of the foods you want to eat. For example, foods from the low density list will be lower in calories and higher in fiber, so they will keep you feeling full much longer than choices from the high density category. Foods in the high density category also, as a rule, do not offer much in the way of good nutritional value, but are very high in fat and calories.

So, you would get more food “value” from eating low density carrots rather than peanuts. In fact, you could eat an entire pound of carrots as opposed to one ounce (that’s right, I said ounce) of peanuts. Its all about making good choices, what could be simpler?

Volumetrics is all about getting more out of foods you eat. Foods are divided up into four main categories, and are as follows:

1) Very low density – this group includes broth-based soups, non-fat milk and all non-starchy fruits and vegetables

Read to What are the biggest trends in dieting? on Quora2) Low density – this groups includes grains, starchy fruits and vegetables, legumes, breakfast cereal, low-fat meats, low-fat mixed dishes like spaghetti or chili.

3) Medium density – foods such as bread, pizza, meat cheese, salad dressing, French fries, ice cream, cake and pretzels are included in this category.

4) High Density – chocolate, chips, crackers, butter, oils and nuts are the foods included in this “keep choices to a minimum” category.

Basically, you may eat anything you want from any of these categories, choosing to limit the portion sizes according to the density. So once you learn which foods have what density, it is easy to fill your plate with great choices! So you aren’t really on a diet, you are just completely changing the way you think about the foods you eat.

Because you are changing your mind-set towards food, any weight loss you achieve from using the Volumetrics diet will likely be longer lasting than pounds lost using a fast, fad, crashy sort of diet plan. I know if I work at losing weight, I want it to stay gone!…

Kettlebell Weights

written by Ketty Pen

Kettlebell weights have been around for many generations and have a strong history of increasing strength in athletes. Training with kettlebell weights originated in Russia long ago but is now getting more and more popular all around the world because people are becoming aware of the benefits they bring in a training routine.

Due to their popularity you may have already seen kettlebell weights at your gym. The kettlebell (or girya) looks like a blob of metal with a handle attached. This unusual shape serves as two functions: First, the off-center weight of the kettlebell forces the trainer to use stabilizer muscles in a movement giving a more intense, all around work out. Second the handle allows for the release of the kettlebell weights which allows for movements that aren’t possible with traditional dumbbells. Many different lifts are possible with kettlebells, in fact, the variations are endless.

As kettlebell weights become more popular, more varieties and variations are being created. In Russia, a traditional kettlebell weighed one pood or 16 kg (about 35 pounds) but now you can find kettlebell weights that come in various sizes ranging from as little as 2 pounds to over 150 pounds. Also, kettlebells were traditionally only made of steel but now there are models made from various materials and even weights that are rubber coated to avoid damage to your training surfaces. Another different type of kettlebell available now is the adjustable kettlebell.

Adjustable kettlebells have many benefits First, they allow a trainer to customize the weight used and allow a trainer to progress weight incrementally instead of taking big jumps up or down in weight. Also, with adjustable kettlebell weights you can avoid the expense of buying different sized kettlebells every time you need to progress up plus you save on space since a lot of kettlebells with different weights aren’t needed. The only drawback with adjustable kettlebells is that they aren’t as stable as traditional kettlebells so the weight can shift around if they’re not secured properly.

One of the great things about kettlebell weights is that you don’t need to buy accessories to train with them. There’s no need for a bench or a power-rack; you just grab on to a kettlebell and start your workout. Not only does this save you money, it also saves a lot of space since weight training accessories and machines can take up a lot of room.

Once starting with kettlebell training please remember to start light and get form down before moving up in weight. I can’t stress this enough. Even if you are an experienced weight trainer, it is important to get the movements down properly since they stimulate and fatigue the muscles in a unique way. Also, a kettlebell trainer needs to be aware of how to control kettlebell weights so that forearms and wrists don’t get injured during training. Working out with kettlebell weights should be done with care so you can enjoy training long term and condition the body beyond what you think is possible now.…

Six Health Benefits Of Jumping On A Trampoline

written by Ketty Pen

Remember when you were a small child in elementary school and you saw the gym teacher hauling the trampoline out of the storage room, and a shiver of pure joy went right through you all the way to your toes?

*Cardiovascular – once you get started jumping up and down, your heart rate goes up and before you can say “alley oop!” you are having a fantabulous cardio workout!

*Low impact – jumping on a trampoline is easy on your joints. Even walking on concrete can be painful to people with chronic pain from arthritic conditions and a trampoline takes stress off of all ready painful joints and muscles. No pain no gain is forevermore banished from jumping on a trampoline!
*Motor skills – your brain works in crazy ways to numerous to mention, but jumping on a trampoline makes both sides of the brain work together at the same time, while simultaneously making both sides of your body work together.

*Strength – jumping on a trampoline builds strength not only in your muscles, but in all your connective tissues, such as ligaments and tendons. Strong muscles and connective tissues are better able to hold your bones in place, making you stronger all the way around.

*Weight loss – add up all of the above and there is just no way for you to not lose a few pounds. That is, as long as you are not getting off the trampoline and heading for the local donut shop or ice cream parlor!
To sum it all up, jumping on a trampoline is a rollicking, frolicking, out-of-the-box and off the sofa splendiferous way to exercise your body!…

Kettlebell Exercises

written by Ketty Pen

Kettlebell exercises are becoming more and more popular as people realize the benefits of this unique way of training. Many athletes are starting to incorporate kettlebell exercises into their routines because of the many results they bring for strength and conditioning. People from all walks of life including: weightlifters, martial artists, wrestlers and general strength trainers are focusing on kettlebell training to achieve their goals. These goals aren’t modest either since many MMA fighters, Olympic athletes and professional athletes use kettlebells to improve their conditioning. Of course anyone from any level of fitness can safely train with kettlebells and see their benefits as well.

Kettlebell exercises are quite different compared to other forms of exercises such as barbell training, dumbbell training, calisthenics or any other common conditioning method. Of course, the differences in kettlebell exercises are what make them so effective for gaining strength, endurance and even flexibility. First, kettlebell exercises require the trainer to use their entire body as a whole during the lifts, which means more work and greater demands are placed on the body.

The greater demands trigger growth and condition the body to be stronger as a reaction to the great stimulus experienced when kettlebell training. The use of a total body lift during work outs also trains the muscles to work together efficiently which translates to more real world functional strength. Isolation exercises with traditional weights will increase strength in muscles but this may not translate well to strength required beyond that specific movement whereas kettlebell training will improve strength required for any activity.

Additionally, if you practice kettlebell exercises you will see major benefits in your strength and balance due to the fact that training with kettlebell requires you to use stabilizer muscles that are not commonly worked with traditional training. These stabilizer muscles are needed to balance a kettlebell during a movement and are worked hard during a kettlebell routine – even more than with traditional free weight exercises. The stimulation and strengthening of these stabilizer muscles will lead to a synergistic effect on the strength and balance and of a kettlebell trainer. Kettlebell exercises also strongly work the core and improve flexibility which reduces the chance of injury for athletes.

When beginning kettlebell exercises start with basic movements and focus on technique. It is said that failure with kettlebell training is not when you can’t lift anymore; it’s when your technique starts to diminish. This will prevent injuries and also ensure that you are targeting the correct muscle groups with correct form. Be patient with your training, it will have movements that you may not be used to but of course that is one of the major benefits. If you are patient and diligent with your training, you will see results that transform you into a stronger and more efficient athlete.

Depending on your goals, you can tailor your workouts and diet so that you either lose fat or gain muscle as you train with kettlebells. They are a powerful tool to fix your body composition whichever way you choose. These powerful ballistic exercises work your body as one unit and require a great deal of hard work so you’re sure to see an improvement in the integrity of your body as you progress with your kettlebell exercises.
