Let’s work with simulators! (A handbook for beginners) # 5
Published April 17, 2011 | 
The question “Which simulator is the fastest to burn calories?” can be regarded as rhetorical – it depends primarily on the intensity of the training. Although Americans have argued that for those losing weight treadmills on average 30% are more efficient than other types of cardio equipment.
Training the power of will on a simulator
Something fantastic was invented by the American company “Icon Health and Fitness” –a treadmill with a “personal trainer” function. Especially for those who are distracted from training by everything while at home. The easiest option – with the voice of the instructor. It welcomes you: “Good afternoon! Now for my signal your track will go up!” Throughout the training the “voice instructor” tells when to increase or decrease the load. An even greater illusion of the personal training is created by the video option of the program – a coach accompanies you from the screen and you run along a paradise landscape and listen to the music and singing of birds. In the third – the Internet version – the trainee communicates with a real person in the on-line regime.
Last details
1. Even pregnant can train in the gym missing only the first two months of pregnancy.
2. The visible results can be seen no earlier than after two or three months, practicing an integrated approach: exercises in the cardio area, exercises with strength equipment and a special diet. You should exercises two or three times a week for an hour and a half.
3. If you want to lose weight, the amount of food from the very beginning of the trainings is to be reduced. And slightly increased at the expense of protein products, if you want to increase the volume.
4. The ideal option – exercises with a personal trainer who will control your loads, will make and adjust to you a personal program who will monitor the implementation of the exercises, for example, proper posture and breathing.
Vain fears
Some of us are still afraid of really “sit down” on simulators because of a not very pleasant prospect to become a mountain of muscles. However, for us (unless you pump at the gym seven days a week for several hours), in contrast to men, it is not a threat – by virtue of purely women’s physiological characteristics. Our body has much less hormone testosterone than men, and this is testosterone that according to the scientists is responsible for building the muscle mass.
