WARM UP AT THE BEGINNING, COOL DOWN AT THE END
Before exercising, you need to prepare your body for this activity and warm-up your muscles and joints for this tempo. Similarly, you need to continue with movements to slowly increase your heart rate. Remember that your chances for injury are high for any exercise without warm-up. Don’t start your exercise before preparing your neck, head, legs, arms, back and shoulders. When you complete your exercise, cool down to bring your heart rate to a normal range. Apply the stretching moves to the areas you have exercised and complete your routine healthily.
BE AWARE OF YOUR LEVEL
Let’s drop “No pain no gain” attitude aside. Because your purpose should never be to achieve your targets with pain. When an individual communicates with his/her body and knows that s/he needs, s/he will have the right knowledge about his/her level. Heavy exercises might not be a health option for you and you might need to step things down a bit. You might have a high level or potential and your exercise might be too light… Your selection should be entirely determined by your body. You can make high intensity exercises as your body lets you or try different techniques. Just like a beginner runner cannot complete a marathon…
CREATE REGULAR ACTIVITY PLANS
We know that staying at home pushed us to lying on the sofa, spending time at bed or spending time in the kitchen… We understand you very well but we think that you need to develop a movement mechanism when you spend time at home. Create a program for yourself. Consider your workload and other plans and set a suitable exercise time and order. You can continue your active life by exercising at most 5 days per week and be health by making your immune system strong. Workout a different part in your body depending on your schedule. Don’t forget to get help from expert trainers who offer exercise options on Instagram when you create your schedule.
CONTINUE HEALTHY DIET
Spending at home doesn’t have to be spending time in the kitchen… We know that it is exciting to try a new recipe every day and create new dishes. If you have this excitement to create health food, there is no problem. Of course, you can have some snacks as well. When the 80-90% of your eating habit consist of health food, small getaways will not be visible. When you have your will, say no to yourself and set the amounts, you will not experience any negative aspects. You might set a “getaway day” for you to consume this food on this day and stay away from them on the other days. You should think about it…
MAKE PROPER CHOICES
One of the most important factors you need to know about exercise and sports is your “body” … The best thing is to choose an exercise that matches your physical properties and do not damage your existing injuries. It is important to consider your age, weight, health problems and have a blood test if you are a beginner in exercising. If you don’t have any barrier to do the exercise you want, you are one step ahead.
KEEP YOUR MOTIVATION HIGH
We all know this is a hard period… We try to live with all this anxiety, emotional problems, stress, loss and sadness. We don’t want to do anything and we stick with our routines most of the time. But we need to remember that we exist as long as we hope. We will try to be good by hoping, dreaming, working and putting efforts. We will invest to ourselves and take care of our body. We will exercise regularly and eat healthy to take care of ourselves. We will open the doors to feel better despite our low motivation. We will say “get up and feel better!” instead of “I don’t want to exercise now.”
BENEFIT FROM THE DIGITAL WORLD *
Since we are mainly at home, the distance between us and the digital world decreased. Everything we are looking for from shopping to ordering comes to our feet. We started to exercise at home as we did almost everything at home. Because trainers are at our home with live events. They also provide service with special package pricing for those who want to continue continuously and one-on-one (online). Sports digital formations and related websites continue to serve everyone who wants to do sports through digital channels.
GET SOME EQUIPMENT
You can buy suitable equipment for your exercise program. You can place your order on e-commerce websites of various brands and start exercising without losing time. If you create a space for your new equipment at home before purchasing them, you will have a general ideal about where to place them. This area must be a comfortable area that won’t prevent your moves and you can put your equipment. This way you will create a mini gym at home!
