Here's part of a newsletter I received from Reema Sarin:
We want to quickly bring you up to speed with ‘What’s in and working well’ in the world of Fitness, which is:
• Intense cardio exercise routines, ideally 20 – 30 minutes, at least 3 times a week, with a combination of strength training exercises for your arms and legs and floor workouts for toning your abdominal muscles for another 20 minutes. The combination of the above is has proven to be very effective and will give you excellent results in just a few weeks!
• Do change your cardio workouts at least twice a week to incorporate Running, Power Walking, Cycling, Swimming, Aerobics and other cardio workouts with Gym machines. Remember; never let your body get used to any one type of work out. For effective weight loss and fitness, you need to keep surprising your muscles with new types of fat burn exercises which have proven to give far greater results in a relatively shorter duration of time. For aerobic workouts, the latest trend is to keep the moves simple and repetitive as opposed to fancy choreography.
• And to get the maximum out of your workouts, choose your 3 or 4 of your favorite songs, with fast beats and good rhythm (at least 120 beats per minute). Fantastic upbeat music is a true energy booster and believe me it will simply do wonders to motivate you and make you workout to your optimum potential. Enjoy yourself and let your music work you out!
• Last but not the least, keep your diet wholesome and healthy – LOTS of water, fruits, vegetables, proteins; LOW in fat, fried foods, deserts and processed foods. And if you really want to drop weight – Cut out Alcohol and reduce your SALT intake considerably.
And watch the phenomenal Results! So folks, enjoy your work-outs with lots of good music; make your workouts interesting and keep the ‘Fitness is Fun’ spirit alive!
