Professional athletes, from basketball players to golfers, tennis players to swimmers, make cross training part of their regular fitness regimens. You don't have to be a pro athlete to enjoy the benefits of cross training.
How do you include cross training in your fitness program? Try to vary your exercise activities between aerobic conditioning, strength training, endurance, and balance. And vary the workouts that emphasize each one of those areas.
For the best results - plan two to three days of flexibility and strength training, and three to five days of aerobic workouts.
The more you work your body - the greater your benefits! Try working out twice a day for even quicker results! And if weight loss is one of your goals - well you're in luck! The quickest way to lose weight and keep it off is with daily exercise!
Don't have much time to devote to exercise?
Simply try to make sure fitness is a priority in your life. Invest some quality time in yourself! If you're currently exercising twice a week, then simply finding time for one more workout during that week will help you burn more fat and make more progress.
In fact, experts say, you don't even have to do a specific workout to get the effects of crossing training if you live a varied and physically active life. They say variety is the spice of life, so try something new as often as you can! Try tennis or swimming, rollerblading, cycling, hiking, jogging, or skiing with friends. Why not enjoy your workouts with friends and family? Sports are also excellent ways to stay socially active and keep your body fit and toned!
