Get Fit While Gaming Using Integrated Training
Designing your dream fitness level is not that different from designing your dream home. A home that is comfortable, durable and beautiful requires a strong, balanced and durable foundation. Let's cover why integrated training is one of the foundational elements of GamerXise and how it creates maximum results in the safest, most efficient and effective way possible. I'll cover integrated training, what it is, its components and why this type of training method is so important.
Integrated training involves attacking your fitness goals from every direction simultaneously. By using multiple planes of motion, movement patterns and exercise types in a single exercise program individuals are able to surround and shred their fitness goals faster than typical isolated training programs. Lets step away from the bench press and the squat bar for a moment to see what adding true variety to your routine looks like.
Instead of the typical up, down, forward back motions we may be used too, integrated training combines stretching, resistance, varied planes and types of motion into a single exercise program. Training in this way has shown to improve mood, sleep, cardiovascular health, flexibility and muscle mass. Integrated training has also shown the ability to reduce stress and provide effective fat loss.
One of the reasons its so important to have a wholistic and well balanced exercise routine is the number of negative consequences it helps avoid. Namely, risk of injury, frustration with your program, delayed results, making tracking and planning your progression difficult. By attacking your fitness goals from many angles, in many ways simultaneously you are able to reduce improve adherence, thus being more likely to achieve goals and make progression easier on yourself.
One of the keys to maximizing your bodies potential is improving and exercising with great posture. This will maximize energy, strength, endurance and much more. Also operating in full range of motion to create extra barriers against muscle, joint and bone injury. By implementing an integrated training approach you really are providing the best possible plan to achieve your goals, reduce injury risk and maintain swift and consistent progress.
A couple of side notes as the cherry on top. A good trainer will tell you what to do, a great trainer will show, tell and guide you to mastery. No matter the training program, goal setting, constant monitoring, and assessing progress are each essential for reaching health and fitness goals.
So remember, in order to give every muscle and every effort its maximum potential use an integrated training approach. From attacking goals from multiple angles, protection from injury and reaching goals faster integrated training methods are the best. That’s why GamerXise has modeled its program on these very principles. If you want to learn how to introduce integrated training into your next gaming session, try out GamerXise.
