Inspiration from Athletes in Health and Physical Fitness combines:
a) Relax/Rest
b) Recovery /Recoup
c) Unique training skills to explode your health like never before. Raise your game and your calibre including focus and discipline.
Comfort, respect and zest to have trained with a small Elite group of World Class Athletes and boy did I take my health and physical fitness to the next level.
Someone wrote "You are who you hang around with?" it make sense,let me tell you why?I knew taking the dare and committing myself to the discipline and exceptionally great concentration of training with an Elite group of jumpers and sprinters was going to be the hardest thing I had gone till date. My fitness and health was in good condition before I initiated, but I was still sore for every day for 4 weeks when I was put through the paces of the UK's Top Performance Coaches/mentors winter training session.
I would feel happy if i tell you the secret of improving health and physical fitness which have had outstanding effects;
1. Plyometrics
2. Training with people better than you
3. Rest and recovery
4. Discipline
Plyometrics - The biggest wake up signal to me was plyometrics, basically all that hopping/jumping and bounding you see athletes do on grass and over hurdles etc. I had never given them their due credit and it showed; my example of a single leg hoping was very tiring. But as I had about 7 Plyometric exercises to do every Thursday I soon improved my strength and became very ripped within weeks! The intensity is so great I found that after just two weeks of hard hopping and bounding my fat just melted off! My legs became super strong and my running speed was improving throught he year.
Training with people better than you - Improves your health and physical fitness dramaticly
My health and fitness was at a level that I was thinking that i was good. But when you are taken out of you comfort zone and someone has higher expectations of you than you do - it adds to your drive and ability. Combine that with having nice people to aspire to, you find that you begin step up to the plate, towards the level of the people surrounding you. For example, my weights and speed improved exceptionally because I was having one of the best coaches/mentor around shouting and screaming at me that I could do it, and I did, in as little as 3 months I was putting out some training sessions as good as if not better than the group I was training with. My suggestion to you is find a great coach/mentor, train with competitive people than you and have higher expectations of yourself. It can work for your health and physical fitness goals and any other goals equally.
Rest and recovery - the missing link to your health and physical fitness
Do you get silly injuries, niggles that soon become chronic? I know I have. The next part of my health and physical fitness education was the importance of rest/relax and recovery/recoup. World Class Athletes have massages at least 3 times a week on their legs and back, routine check ups and listen to what their bodies are telling them. Straight after a hard technical session we would have ice baths; which were absolutely freezing as we had to stand in a big wheelie bin for over 10 minutes until we couldn't feel our toes. The result however was outstanding, almost no soreness the next day! Combine this with a good deep tissue massage to get the muscles relaxed and flushed out of toxins and you are in great shape week in week out.
The last thing I want to discuss is my Health and physical fitness enlightenment is discipline.
It means two things; the discipline to train when called upon but also the discipline not to train if you are slightly tight, too tired or not mentally with it. These are the keys to staying healthy, avoiding injury and not getting into a rut. You have be very commitment to turn up when it’s raining, or when you don't feel like it. It’s this discipline that World Class Athletes all share.
