Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links Mistakes in Joining the Gym Everyone has their own individual reason for joining a health club, lose a few pounds, tone up, lower your blood pressure, strengthen a bad back or shoulder, perform better in sports, or just keep in shape by playing some basketball or racquetball. By joining the gym you have shown a time, and a financial commitment to achieving your goals, congratulations!
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links However, joining the gym is only the first step. Did you know that only about 2% of health club members actually use the gym? Some gym members leave because they injure themselves and cannot work out, many others leave because of lack of results. The reasons are endless. However, I have been a doctor for over eight years now, and I have seen new gym members come in with good intentions only to make the same common mistakes others made that set them up for failure, or an injury.
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links The Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports that as many as 250,000 lives are lost annually due to lack of physical activity or sedentary lifestyles. That is 200,000 more than the number of lives lost as a result of car accidents, which are 50,000. Most of the problems and other doctors are treating such as high blood, arthritis, chronic pain or stiffness, overweight, low energy, stress and tension are often the result of years of neglect. Most of these chronic problems could have been prevented with proper guidance.
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links The good think is that many of these chronic problems can still be helped, again with proper guidance. Here are the most common mistakes over the years which result in injury, or failing to reach their goals whether it is weight loss, muscle toning, rehabilitating an injury, getting off all those pain medications or whatever the reason was for initially joining a health club was. People usually make such mistakes. First, not seeing a qualified professional before beginning an exercise program. This sounds like common sense right?
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links Every piece of exercise equipment has a similar statement on it right? There is a reason for that, exercise can be harmful or even deadly. How many times have you known of someone suddenly passing away from a heart attack and you say to yourself, he looked so healthy? So schedule an appointment with your primary doctor and have your blood pressure checked, get your resting pulse rate, get your body fat tested, have your heart and lungs listened to, have your muscles, joints, and any injuries evaluated before you begin your exercise program.
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links Second, not on the right program. Don’t worry about the fats, this exercise will help you. Now that you know what your baseline numbers are (body fat is, blood pressure, etc.), the next step is to get on an individual program that is right for you and your specific goals. The best person to start with would be the doctor who first evaluated you before you started your program. If you have arthritis, a bad back, high blood pressure, or are overweight you should know exactly what you show and should not do. Working out at the gym can do wonders for your health.
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links If done correctly, exercise can lower blood pressure, reduce coronary artery disease, improve your mood, help you deal with stress, increase your muscle tone, reduce chronic aches and pains, strengthen an injury, lose weight, and if done correctly you can achieve the goals you have for joining the gym. So, make sure the person who is setting you up on your program is trained to customize an individualized program for your specific goals. Then, with this information you can begin your program without confusion.
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links If you are interested in working with a personal trainer, this information can also be pasted on to them so they are aware what you should and should not be doing. Third, not having someone, other than yourself, monitor your progress. How are you going to know how you are doing if you do not have regular progress evaluations? You should have someone rechecking your baseline numbers on a regular basis, blood pressure, percent body fat, etc.
Topic 1: The Health Club Knowledge Links This person can also give you support and help you with any problems that might come up. Maybe a specific exercise causes you some pain, or you get a clicking noise in you shoulder when you do some exercises, that is not normal. You should have someone to help you with that. Finally, having someone monitor your progress means you will be more likely to follow through with your program and meet you goal. If you avoid these mistakes above you will be able to achieve you goals or your reason for joining this health club.
