Calisthenics



Readers ,


Today I will tell about Calisthenics

Calisthenics is a form of resistance training using purely body weight exercises, such as push ups, pull ups and squats. These exercises can be modified to make them more or less challenging, and therefore are suitable for all fitness levels.
If you are new to this form of training it would be ideal to have someone there to assist you and ensure you are doing the exercises with correct form. Form is of vital importance in all types of training, and calisthenics is no exception. By using incorrect form you will not be getting the full extent of the benefits you should be getting from performing the exercises. You may also be risking injury if you use incorrect form repeatedly.
As a general rule, if you are maintaining a ‘neutral’ position you should be on the right track! ‘Neutral’ is ensuring you keep your feet roughly hip distance apart, knees soft, glutes tight, hips neutral, abdominals braced (stomach tight), shoulders back and down, spine long and head facing forwards. The ‘neutral’ position applies whether you are standing up, lying down or seated (as in the lower phase of the squat position, for example) – basically no matter what exercise you are performing.
These exercises can be done at home or in the gym. It’s easy to create a challenging workout in any location using body weight exercises.This type of training, if done correctly and consistently, will increase core strength, and is therefore a welcome addition to any running training schedule – a strong core will increase your efficiency as a runner.Calisthenics can be done alone or with a partner or in a group, depending how you prefer to train.This type of workout can be done at little or no cost at all, as you require little or no equipment.Ideally you would have someone there who can check you are using correct form and performing all exercises safely. This may not always be possible, however, using a mirror to keep an eye on your own technique would also be a solution.Runners do not always have the motivation to vary their training away from purely running, so initial motivation to begin and consistently carry out a body weight programme may be a challenge. However, if you can overcome this hurdle you will likely see results quite soon and be driven on by this.

Consistency over Persistent

It’s amazing what you can achieve when you apply persistency and consistency, they can take a small modicum of talent and turn it into great results, allowing us to achieve things that we never thought were possible. Persistency is the art of continuing especially in spite of opposition, obstacles, discouragement, and sometimes, even failure. That ability to get up one more time than you have fallen down. Consistency is about sticking to the schedule, being disciplined and making an effort each and every day. Talent alone is not enough. There are hundreds and thousands of talented people who have never achieved their goals because they lacked these two characteristics. They either gave up when they experienced failure, or they weren’t consistent about putting in the required effort. Talent without effort will always remain unfulfilled potential. Many times in my life I have taken what little talent I have and far exceeded what people thought was possible by applying persistency and co...

E-mail Etiquette

Dear Readers, This is about Email Etiquettes We should Convey our message professionally by using adequate sentence and proper justified meaning,  We Should never use abbreviations or emoticons in business emails as it is a sign of unprofessionalism.  Never include any confidential information in an E-Mail,  If you are attaching any supporting documents then mention the file name in the email body as enclosed. Always Start with Good Greetings Such as HI, GOOD MORNING, ETC Always end the body with a Question or Thanking you or Thank You  Do not forward chain letters or “junk” mail, and never make any sexist, racist or otherwise discriminating remarks in an e-mail.
