Beginner's Fitness For The Average Guy Posted: 02-05-08 17:07pm
I just recently began writing a blog to
help out men who just aren't happy with
their physical fitness, but can't seem to
get going on it. (Most of the information
can be used for men and women, but later
on down the road I will be posting
workouts to build mass which might be more
targeted towards the males). I will be
posting every other day, and it is the
beginning of my research for a DVD package
I hope to be offering maybe in the next
few months. I am open to any suggestions
for posts and any questions. I am
currently helping out a few of my friends
at the gym, and I just love offering all
the help I can give to individuals who
want to better themselves.

LOL MMAFighter, nice one.
I think its a great idea, for me in
Australia, there is not enough research
available to people in form of workout
DVDs or DVDs just explaining just what
goes on inside the body and what not, It's
kinda sad really, I guess for me because i
am into fitness and training and stuff and
doing courses i am uptodate but alot of
people in the gym have really no idea as
to how the body works the energy systems
and and all that, i will be interested to
see where u go with this and i would love
to purchase it off you (indeed if it is
for sale) Just so i can see what ur trying
to achieve here

Ur from Australia? That's cool. Some1 in
my grade just moved to Washington state
from Australia. Um, I would say general
fitness goes something like this:
FIne motor skills:
1. Agility
2. Speed
3. Balance
4. etc
Pure fitness skills:
1. Muscle strength (weight lifting
exercises like bench pressing is uusally
the best)
2. Muscle endurance (bodyweight exercises
like pushups are usually the best)
3. Cardio endurance
4. Flexibility
5. Body composition
6. Muscle explosiveness (clapping
pushups/jump squats)
7. Lung capacity (I count it as general
fitness since the navy seals count lung
capacity and cardio endurance as energy
systems and nobody in their right mind
would not count cardio endurance as not
being fitness, however, its probably not
that applicable to the average person
seeking to get in shape)

personal trainer, lol
