The scientific way to prepare your exercise program is very simple:

One must always prioritize the components of fitness according to the above pyramid to achieve a stable, balanced and toned body.

Let’s understand this pyramid
Flexibility and Stability must always be given priority over Strength and Power for ALL.
  • If flexibility of muscles and joints is poor, your muscle strength and tone will become poor too, due to reduced range of motion in the joints.
  • When flexibility is improved, muscle balance is restored as tight muscles become relaxed and hence mobility of the joints improves.
  • The core and deep abdominal muscles are the power house of the body, poor strength in these muscles will lead to weakening of the other muscles of the body.
  • Core stability provides a strong base and support for movement and thus reduces the chance of injury.
Strength building is next in line after flexibility and stability training.
  • Once an individual achieves significant flexibility, core strength and function, he/she has built a strong foundation in his musculoskeletal system as seen at the base of the pyramid.
  • This strong foundation will help him to build strength and tone in the rest of his body muscles of the chest, shoulders, arms and legs.
  • Those who will build tone only in the chest, shoulders, arms and legs (even if they use functional training), will lead to injuries since the foundation (core + flexibility) was not built first.
When is Power training implemented?

Muscle Power is only essential for those who are into competitive sport or have jobs requiring high levels of muscle power.

FACTS ABOUT BODY TONING
$

Machine-based strength training will weaken the core muscles and lead to injury and pain.

$

Machines should be used for isolating muscles during physiotherapy, not for general fitness.

$

Muscle balance a key to a fit body, is improved by stretching tight muscles and strengthening weak muscles.

$

Stretching and mobilizing is a MUST before and after any sport or exercise – to improve performance significantly and enable to be injury or pain free.Otherwise muscle balance can be disturbed.

$

Exercise selection, duration and intensity differs from person to person.
