WEIGHT LOSS TIPS

At least four, 30-minute workouts per week, along with a reduced-calorie diet, are recommended if you are trying to lose weight. However, be sure to stay within your target heart rate zone and exercise a maximum of 5 days per week for 60 minutes per workout.

Good posture is the key to safe, comfortable workouts. Keep your chin up and your head facing forward. Align your head and shoulders with your hips. Avoid leaning forward. Keep your back straight.

Warm up before you begin.

A warm-up routine prepares your body and mind for vigorous exercise. It also helps provide insur- ance against injury and soreness. Warm up with two to five minutes of slow exercise, at minimal in- tensity.

Stretch after your warm-up.

A pliable, well-stretched muscle is less suscepti- ble to injury. Perform the recommended stretches on a smooth, flat surface.

The correct form for several stretches is described below (see the drawings at the right). Be sure to move slowly as you stretch—neverbounce.

1.Toe Touch Stretch—Sit with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for

15to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times.

Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees, and back.

2.Calf/Achilles Stretch—With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward, and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons, and ankles.

3.Hamstring Stretch—Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for both legs. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.

4.Inner Thigh Stretch—Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5.Quadriceps Stretch—With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
