Exercise Weight Watchers
Resistance Training • Weights and strength training • Turns Fat tissue into muscle tissue • Studies have found it can prevent pre-diabetes from turning into type Two diabetes • Decreases glucose levels • Could gain weight in muscle tissue
Flexibility training • Yoga is a great form of flexibility training • Simple stretches to prevent injuries before and after resistance/aerobic exercise • Yoga has been proven to release endorphins that regulate HPA axis and SNS • Mobilizes “fight or flight” response combating stressors
Aerobic exercise • Dancing, running, bicycling , swimming • Helps with your heart and lungs as you get older • Tones muscles and boost your metabolism • Keeps your cholesterol at lower levels • Does not necessarily mean you lose weight you could just eat it back again
Definitions • Glucose: A monosaccharide stored in the body as fat until use • Endorphins: They release chemicals in the brain that make you feel good (epinephrine, serotonin) • SNS: Sympathetic nervous system • HPA: Hypothalamic pituitary-adrenal • Metabolism: The rate at which your body breaks down and utilizes food
Conclusion • Doing just one kind of exercise isn’t as good as doing all three • Also exercise must be done with a cut back on food or healthier food options • Exercise is an important part of a healthy lifestyle • Good de-stressor and stress can lead to an extra build up of fat
