Why Work Out In Your Bedroom?
Studies show that if you want to burn body fat, you should exercise first thing when you wake up before you eat anything.
Blood-sugar levels are at their lowest as you haven't eaten anything for hours
and your body is more likely to dip into fat reserves to get you through the
workout. Going outside is a great idea, but it might not be possible in bad
weather. Going to a gym is fine if you have the time but most people don't.
Working out in your bedroom, you don't even need to wear clothes - there are
literally no excuses and no barriers to stop you from exercising.
Do You Have Room To Skip?
Most people's bedroom ceilings are simply too low to allow you to skip Ereck Flowers Giants Jersey , if you can then you are lucky! Jumping rope is a cheap, no-maintenance way to burn serious calories. You just need a thick
foam mat to lessen the impact on your knee joins and you're away. 15 minutes of
skipping in the morning is equivalents to a lot longer on a stationary bike, a
stepper or a treadmill. Start by trying to do 140 jumps without a miss, then
rest. Build up from here until you can jump for longer periods and then work in
other moves like alternate steps. The shorter your workout is Darian Thompson Giants Jersey , the more likely you are to stick with it - no excuses!
Into Aerobics?
If you don't have room to skip, don't worry! Use the same mat and you can do a range of other great cardio exercises
such as jumping jacks (star jumps), squat thrusts and squats. It's even better
if you use a cardio workout video for motivation; you don't even need a TV, you
can use a laptop or tablet to watch the programs on.
Stationary Bikes
Few people have the space for a stationary bike in their bedroom. These take up a fair bit of room Sterling Shepard Giants Jersey , they don't look nice and they are nothing like actually cycling! You can buy fold-up bikes that save space but these have
the cheapest mechanisms (usually tension adjusted) and you'll be bored pretty
easily. If you want a semi-realistic movement you'll need a higher-end bike with
magnetic resistance. These never fold up due to the size of the mechanism but
would be a good idea if you have the space for them. Skipping will get you in
shape a lot faster.
Treadmills
If you have just 17" x 45" of space to workout in, a fold-down treadmill might be a solution. They collapse to
a height of just 25cm so you can easily store them under some beds or up against
the wall between some wardrobes. Unlike skipping, having to set up the treadmill
before each workout is one small barrier that you have to deal with. Non-powered
treadmills are quite disappointing but the great news is that these days you can
find fold-down treadmills with smooth, quiet motors that give you at least a
6mph speed. This is enough for light jogging. Treadmills will be easier on your
knee joints than skipping.
In many martial arts Eli Apple Giants Jersey , the true origins or starting point is usually murky or unknown. This is also true for the martial art kickboxing, however, can be
traced back to a creation point of sorts. During the early to mid 1950's, a man
by the name of Osamu Noguchi was a prominent boxer and boxing enthusiast in
Japan. He traveled the world to watch popular boxing matches and became fond of
the style of boxing used in Thailand Wayne Gallman Giants Jersey , Muay Thai.
At that time, a man by the name of Tatsuo Yamada (the creator of Nihon Kempo Karate-do) took an
interest in Muay Thai as well he sought to find a form of fighting in which
opponents could aim their strikes directly at each other and make contact with
the targeted area of the opponents body.
In Karate, the opponents are never permitted to make contact with each other directly. Around the year 1959,
Tatsuo Yamada created what he called Karate boxing its popularity had not quite
taken off at that point because it was still a fairly unknown sport.
Tatsuo Yamada and Osamu Noguchi met (they were one of the few people interested in the sport of Muay Thai) and worked together to create Muay Thai
vs. Karate matches in which opponents could participate. It was actually Osamu
Noguchi that coined the term kickboxing and after several matches Davis Webb Giants Jersey , popularity of this new martial art spread fairly quickly.
Before his death in 1967, Osamu Noguchi also created the Kickboxing Association and it was after this that kickboxing began to take its
true place not only among Japan, but in other countries as well. However, when
Tashadi Sawamura (one of the most popular kickboxers during this time)
kickboxing experienced a short lull in popularity but bounced around the year
1993 when neck and elbow wrestling were banned from the sport by Kazuyoshi Ishii
(creator of the martial art Seidokan Karate). It was shortly after this that
kickboxing's popularity spread to the countries of North America Dalvin Tomlinson Giants Jersey , Australia and Europe.
Japanese kickboxing has differed very little from its parent art of Muay Thai. The rules
are very similar in both sports, such as the continuation of neck and elbow
wrestling (the American version does not allow such moves) and one minute
intervals. American kickboxing took on a more modern form, allowing only strikes
with either the hands or feet and sometimes the shins, but very rarely is this
allowed. It is generally thought that American kickboxing (or freestyle
kickboxing) is more of a mixture of Karate and regular boxi.
