Looking to get in shape? The Four Pillars of Fitness are the key!
Fitness Trends are ALWAYS Changing…
But there are four elements, or pillars, that remains constant. Why? Because they hold the key to a complete and balanced exercise routine.
And these Four Pillars Include:
- Aerobic exercise
- Strength training
- Stability
- Balance
- And flexibility
But it can be challenging to incorporate these foundations into your fitness regimen.
In part, because best practices dictate you should focus separately on each pillar throughout the week. Unfortunately, you probably don’t have the time to work separately on each element.
Moreover, you need to maximize your scheduled fitness time. And a workout that incorporates all four pillars into one session ensures you achieve peak fitness efficiency.
A Four Pillar Workout
The CDC recommends a minimum of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity weekly aerobic activity. This can be accomplished in five 30-minute daily sessions.
Combine strength training with balance and flexibility training, for a complete single day workout:
Aerobic
30 minutes of aerobic/cardio exercise: running, walking, swimming, biking, etc…
Weight Training
20 minutes of weight training incorporating balance and stability moves.
Stretching + Cool Down
10 minutes of stretching: often included in warm-up and cool-down exercises.
Improve Your Workout With Motivation + Proper Guidance
The combination outlined above is essential to maintaining your optimal physical condition. But you may not have the expertise or internal drive to do this on your own.
Working with a trainer can maximize your workout efficiency. While also pushing you harder than you might push yourself. But doing so safely. To ensure you avoid injury.
