Cyclists, Test Your Own Endurance And Exercise Intensity

I was reading today and ran across this little item from SyFy news. It seems a some researchers are interested in making their testing a little more convenient to the athlete and a little more cost effective too. They have figured out a way that cyclists can test their own exercise intensity while working on their trainer at home.

A scientist at University of New Hampshire (UNH) has transformed a three-minute all-out cycling test to a fitness tool that is as effective as more lab-intensive measurements for determining exercise intensity.

A Good Workout Without Weights Where Ever You Are

I ran across a pretty good article in The Scotsman when doing some research on Body Weight Exercises. Many of us instinctively understand that exercising outside in the fresh air (versus conditioned air), sunlight and other natural elements is better for us. This particular article suggest that research has found it that it's a no brainer also. While you can still lift weights in the open air, it may be difficult for some who do not own a decent weight set to do so. Body Weight Exercises offer a good alternative to the gym and can be a good workout without weights in what ever situation you may find yourself.

But ditching the gym in favour of the great outdoors is not just about the feel-good factor. The majority of us exercise because we want to get fit, in body as much as in soul. For MacGregor, the physical benefits to exercising outdoors are key too. "The fitness rewards for deciding to exercise in the great outdoors are plentiful," he says. "You will lose more weight because your workout will be more challenging. Your balance, agility and coordination will be tested by the challenge of adjusting swiftly to different terrains, inclines and obstacles, which means your muscles will be working harder than they would be if you were to do to a similar indoor workout. With the right ideas and a little motivation, you can find everything you need to help you get the most from your exercise."

Darin St. George: Road trip to fitness – Daily News Tribune

My friend Valerie often gives me fodder for my columns with issues she brings to our workouts.

Last week she told me, “I didn’t exercise very much this past week; I couldn’t make it down to the gym and I didn’t have much time.”

Here are some ideas to squeeze in exercise no matter where you are or how little time you’ve got.
