But I only did this for twenty minutes. I started on my cardiovascular workout by doing exercise on the elliptical for thirty minutes again. I will consistently use elliptical in my daily workout because it exercises my whole body more than the treadmill does. Also, elliptical machines are not high impact exercise machines, which means that unlike the treadmill, I could workout with the same level of effort in the elliptical as in the treadmill, but with less impact and not feeling as tired as I could have been on the treadmill. To start my weight training, I decided to use some free weights first. Using fixed-weight dumbbells with 5 lbs-increments (5lb, 10lb, 15lb and 20lb), I did six repetitions of sixteen count exercises for each dumbbell and each arm. I progressed from the 5lb- to the 20lb-dumbbells.
On the third day of my workout, I did my routine cardiovascular workout using the elliptical for 30 minutes. But this time, I increased difficulty of the workout to Level 10. Since there is a hip-hop aerobics class scheduled that day, I joined the group and spent the rest of my workout day (i.e., the remaining 30 minutes of it) dancing to hip-hop music and awkwardly copying the instructor's hip-hop moves a la exercise-style. I have sweated more profusely in...
Schedule for tomorrow is Zumba. I have no idea how to do Zumba, but I might as well try it to experience it.
Day 4 is cardio-Zumba day. After warm-up, I went ahead to Zumba class as it's already starting after my warm-up. If I was awkward with hip-hop, I would say I was just dazed and sweating while doing Zumba. Since I'm not graceful enough for Zumba, I just went through the routine for 30 minutes, awkwardly dancing, while appearing dazed and sweating profusely at the same time. After the Zumba class, I went on the elliptical -- still dazed and sweating profusely -- for my 30-minute, Level 10 exercise.
Day 5 is back to the basics. Cardio workout in the morning because it's a Friday, and at night it would surely be a night-out with friends. So, steeling myself to the drinking and eating in the evening, I did a complete workout for the day. Starting with a full 30-minute warm-up, I did elliptical exercise (Level 10) for 30 minutes, ran on the treadmill with run-brisk walk intervals every five minutes for 30 minutes, and stationary bike cool down for fifteen. Stretching again for 15 minutes before taking a warm…
Ethnography In seven weeks, I conducted seven separate field observations in two different gym settings. Amid the clanks of weights, metal on metal, and the grunts and groans of young men, I conducted detailed observations and compiled a series of field notes. My research focus was on differences between age, gender, and socio-economic class with regards to attitudes towards working out, gym culture, and the use of supplements including steroids. One
Goal "gym" Define the Goal The goal that I am setting for myself for the next three-four months is to go the gym regularly. I feel that going to the gym and getting exercise is very important for one's health. I have seen the impact that going to the gym has made on some people in my life, and want to have the same positive experience. I know that inherently, exercise is
People at the Gym There are many different types of people that one can find at the gymnasium today. Although people are unique and have their own individual qualities, there are some similarities between the sorts of people one finds at the gym that one can find at pretty much any such workout facility. At most gymnasiums there are personal trainers and weight lifter professionals. There are also usually athletic
Personality Profile She came to gym regularly -- at least three times per week. This is a good thing, because she very clearly needed it. Nana, young Chinese girl just out of her teens, no longer felt self-conscious about exercising with "thin, beautiful" people. Since her first, nervous visit to the physical health center close to her classes at Northeastern University, Nana has seen many overweight and even obese people, just

Introduction Soccer is a true total sport. It requires of its players the ability to show intense bursts of speed and power while simultaneously commanding the ability to conserve energy and endure for the complete span of the game. It requires athleticism, strength, and agility. Players must be conditioned at a top level to be competitive. That is why training for 3-5 days a week is essential in every season for
