Trekking mastered the treadmill

Fitness program

We used to think that the fitness club will need to choose between training on simulators and group programs. This misconception. Modern sporting venues increasingly offer their customers a group workout at the gym. So, until recently, were very popular Spinning classes on stationary bikes. Now replaced by Trekking.

Trekking (from the English “trek” – trip) – aerobic class that starts on

treadmills. Why do you need such a program, you ask. After all, to perform some simple movements in this simulator it is possible to independently. Indeed, it is possible. But it will not be so exciting, and most importantly, not so effective.

The fact that trekking workout is interval, that is, implies a permanent change in the intensity. The instructor alternates intervals of loading on strength and endurance. It can be like running uphill with a maximum speed and a leisurely walk.

Recent studies have proven that interval the load much better than a monotonous exercise at the same pace. The coach will calculate the optimal ratio of aerobic and anaerobic loads and the duration of each exercise. This approach, first, promotes the burning of fat, and second, makes training interesting and varied.

The duration of the treadmill is at least 40 minutes . That’s how much time it is necessary that the body has expended received from food carbohydrates and passed to the breakdown of fat reserves. The workout ends with a set of exercises and a mandatory stretching to all major muscle groups received a uniform load.

Trekking is high-intensity exercise. But no need to fear excessive load. This program is suitable for people with different degrees of training, since you will adjust the level of difficulty. During the workout, you can decrease or increase the angle of inclination of the treadmill. Thus, keeping the total for the entire group pace, you control the frequency of the pulse.

An important factor is the psychological effect of group classes. When people around diligently perform exercises under the cheers of the coach, to stay do not want to. You cease to concentrate on being tired and trying to move in the same rhythm with the group.

What is the result of practice?

First of all, training on a treadmill allows you to quickly lose excess weight and tone the muscles of the thighs, legs and buttocks. Produced such important quality as strength endurance. Trekking strengthens the cardiovascular and respiratory system. And, of course, allows you to throw out the accumulated day negative energy and be in a good temper.
