www.AbbysHealthFood.com - Issue 38 | Page 29 Keys to Success Using High Intensity Weight Training High intensity weight training does not allow your muscle to rest between movements and engages more of the muscle being used. You can't use momentum as you go through the movement, and this forces your muscles to work harder. During SuperSlow weight training you are also working your muscle to the point of failure, or the point at which you cannot do another repetition. This builds more muscle in a shorter period of time and is safer than other forms of strength training. As Dr. Doug McGuff, author of "Body by Science," told WebMD: "With other exercises, to make them more challenging, you usually have to increase the force required — the weight level, whatever — which brings on aches and pains. This makes them more dangerous. With SuperSlow, you can make exercise much more challenging without increasing force." A reduction in momentum and the necessity of proper form also reduces the potential for injury. Increasing the challenge to your muscle without increasing the potential for damage to joints and muscle may improve your overall success with the program. High intensity weight training also improves your cardiovascular fitness. While you can improve your aerobic capacity with aerobic exercises like jogging or rowing, aerobic capacity also improves with strength training, as your muscles require more oxygen. This demand increases the workload on your heart and lungs to deliver the oxygen where it's needed. High intensity weight training has the added benefit of training your body to increase energy production at the cellular level by delivering substrate to your mitochondria more quickly, effectively and efficiently than traditional aerobic exercise. Specific High Intensity Weight Training Benefits Your body experiences several benefits from exercise. However, high intensity weight training offers specific benefits you may enjoy after just a few short months. • Increased Calorie Burn, Fat Loss and Less Time Exercising Research in the Journal of Translational Medicine determined that participation in High Intensity Resistance Training (HIRT) increased Resting Energy Expenditure (REE). www.kettlebellgym.tv Della Powell 813-785-6634 Safe • Simple • Fun Russian method Improve posture Lose weight Strong core Flexible 727-455-6830 angelarussodesign.com BRAND DEVELOPMENT • PUBLICATION DESIGN PRINT DESIGN • WEB DEVELOPMENT YOUR PROFESSIONAL IMAGE NEEDS TO BE VISUAL & COMPETITIVE in the FLORIDA PRINT AWARDS BEST OF CATEGORY Winners 2X Designer of Abby's Magazine
