When a person enters middle age can make you feel more vulnerable than I had ever felt from the stages of life, there is mounting scientific evidence that lifestyle in middle age can radically affect your health in your senior years. We offer some things you can do to get on track.
1- educate yourself about exercise and diet.
Cannot overstate the power of exercise and diet. It is your responsibility to find out what you need to know. When I approached the average newbie, the average age in the gym, I couldn't help but talk sense to hope to be able to explain everything that a person needs to know in a short time. This optimistic at best. It takes years to build a strong and healthy body, and can take a long time to explain how to do this. Start educating yourself as soon as possible, and using multiple sources. The fitness industry has come with disinformation designed to separate you from your money. Don't believe everything you read, but read it though.
2- building a working relationship with your doctor.
Sometimes most of us have a love or hate relationship with our doctors, we love to hate them. To make it through middle age and beyond, you will need assistance from people in the medical fields from time to time. One of the people you need to get to know a competent who trust your life. You need to have a working relationship with the doctor. This means that he or she is someone you can work with them to get to the bottom of your health issues.
3- exercise with weights.
If you want to prevent muscle atrophy and decreased bone density in your senior years, it's time to start pushing some weight. You need to get permission from a doctor before starting any exercise program, you need to educate yourself, most people underestimate how easy get hurt doing weight lifting without proper training. Unfortunately, many trained in commercial galleries barely have little information and understanding weight training routine. The fact that basic learning, vehicle movements with weights and do these movements three times a week is the equivalent of the fountain of youth. You must find a way to do it.
4- do some cardio.
Still very important. Add 15 to 20 minutes of low impact cardio at the end of exercise can do wonders for your heart and helps reduce body fat. Remember to use the heart to find target heart rate. 220-your age = heart rate Max. Target heart rate = maximum heart rate x 0.65. You can go higher than the target but stay under the limit. This is why it's called Max heart rate.
5- extension.
If you are training two to three times a week, you are going to be sore. Make sure you take the time after workouts along with navigation works on the days of increased blood flow and range of motion. Even some of my associates light workouts yoga in their days away from lifting weights to stay agile and pain-free. working and mobility can help you keep moving like a oiled machine.
6- eat right.
Control what you eat may be one of the hardest things you can do in middle age. Let's face it. You have probably been eating this way for decades, old habits are harder to break. Most recommended fitness gurus every 3-4 hours with a good mix of macro nutrients in each serving multiple meals as the gold standard for a healthy diet. This simply means a little bit of protein, carbohydrates and fats in every meal. The recent changes of organic foods are better for us because of reduced exposure to chemicals. If you don't eat right, you must change possible. If you keep good habits for at least six weeks, they will become permanent.
7- supplement your diet with protein and creatine.
These two supplements has been around long enough and studied enough to say safely to work. Can help you in the fight to maintain muscle strength and functional. I don't recommend spending much on supplements, but protein synthesis needs a hand as we age. Many texts state that diet at least 2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day is good for active and healthy people in middle age.
8- get enough sleep and rest.
Sleep is one of three very important things. We must train and eat and sleep to grow. If there are any of the three, we don't grow like we should. While it is natural to feel that we need less sleep as we age, assure you while participating in resistance training will need everything from sleep eight hours every night. This should be treated just like a diet. You've been doing the same sleep rituals for decades, but now you need to get the eight hours each night during training. Find a way to make it happen for six weeks, and it will become a habit.
9- quit smoking.
Many men were unable to do so, it can be said that this is the hardest habit to break. As amazing as it seems there are still kill you people around who don't believe cigarette in a fast and painful. While I understand addiction, there are plenty of ways to stop around today than there were a couple of years back. But nothing's gonna even really want to stop. In the end, it's all up to you.
