2ND AND 3RD TRAINING SESSIONS

Hi everybodddy!!! 

Today I am going to show you two of my best-liked training sessions.

Both of them are very simmilar because they are circuit trainings which I  developed at the gym using different machines.

My warm-up and cool down was the same as I explained in my last post.

-In one of this sessions, I focused on my hamstrings and shoulders, and I did four different exercises related with these parts of my body. I really enjoyed that day because the exercises were extremely difficult for me but I was  able to perform all of them (I have to admit that I feel very fulfiilled and happy)








These are some pictures that I took with my bestie,Balsita,  after the training session.









-In the other session,  I made some chest and triceps workout. I liked this session because after it I felt tired but I wasn't completely exhausted.
                                                      
                                                 

1ST TRAINING SESSION



Today I am going to share with you one of the sessions that I enjoyed the most during my PTP (Personal Training Project).

When I started to plan my PTP, I decided I wanted to develop my strength, so I have done all the exercises in order to improve this ability.

During this session that I want to show you, I made a circuit training in which the majority of  the exercises were for my lower body.

As a warm-up, I went running slowly from my home to the gym (where I usually  train) and when I got there I did lots of stretching exercises (I tried to focus in the lower part of my body).  After that, I performed the circuit that I had prepared with help of the monitors that are in my gym.

During this session I worked the following musces: quadriceps, calves, hamstrings, my lower back, glutes....















MY PERSONAL TRAINING PROJECT


 As I mentioned at the beggining of this blog,  I've been doing a PTP (personal training project) during six weeks.

Throughout this training project I have been performing different physical activities in order to improve my strength and I have trained four times every week..

As this is a blog related with fitness and physical education, I would like to explain some of these sessions so I am going to choose the ones that I enjoyed the most.

I hope that you like this idea, soon I will post  the first one!!!

APPS FOR YOUR PERSONAL TRAINING






I've spent some time searching for some functional apps that could help me to develop different training methods and finally I've found three apps that are worthy. In this post I am going to share them with you 

First of all, I have to say that I am a simple person.  Here’s what I want from my workout app:  NOT having to touch the screen during my workout, rest periods, mixed options for time, type of workout, good instructions and sequences that challenge me and change all the time.

Let's starttttt -------



  

  1)S HEALTH   
  S Health is a nice and easy way to pay more attention to your  activity levels without the    need for any wristbands or paying for any apps. Here's what it can do for you.
Excercise: Options to track your work outs for running, walking, cycling and hiking. This app uses your mobile's GPS to track the distance you cover. You're also given the option to see a whole bunch of more detailed stats like average and maximum speeds
Food - Part of a healthy lifestyle is the food you eat. S Health gives you a dedicated section to track your food intake and gives you the option to view as graphs by hour, day and month. 

2) SWORKIT 
This app has it all. It eliminates any and all excuses that you have for not working out. All you have to do is choose the body part  you want to work out (or choose “anything goes” for total body) and how long you want to exercise. The app then builds a circuit training workout for you with 30 second intervals. In addition to the circuit training, the Yoga and Basic Stretching function can be used as a warm up, or as a basic, low impact workout.

PUMP UP 
This app helps you create,  and share your cardio and weight-based workouts. What I love about this app is that it is an Instagram-style app so you can also post workout and healthy meal photos to motivate your fellow fitness enthusiasts.
