Physical activity has a multitude of benefits for physical and mental health. For example, strong observational and experimental evidence indicates that regular physical activity or exercise can help prevent or manage several chronic physical conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and cancer, as well as chronic psychiatric conditions, such as depression and anxiety.
At the same time, practicing physical activity contributes considerably to improving the quality of life. The variety of options to do exercise or any other physical exercise is very large, which allows anyone to choose from a developed range, depending on personal skills and pleasures.
Indoor activities
Physical exercise is often chosen depending on the result it can offer, but also depending on its popularity. In our century, there are already many trends, but one of the most popular is going to the gym. The fitness room is an easily accessible space, close at hand even when the weather conditions are not favorable and especially in winter, when sports are much more difficult to do outside. Therefore, the activity in the fitness room is classified as an indoor activity. Besides this there is a wide variety of indoor activities such as swimming, tennis, badminton, running, squash, pilates, yoga, cycling, classes of any type
Outdoor activities
In the category of outdoor sports, basically, you can do everything listed previously, but a wide variety of benefits are added. Experimental evidence suggests that physical exercises performed outside, in nature or in green spaces, increase the health benefits, among them being the absorption of vitamin D, taken directly from the source, a better and more motivating general state, exposure to fresh air which contributes to mental health.
Endurance training
Sports activities aimed at obtaining endurance are jogging, cycling, swimming, summer or winter sports (skiing, skating). Endurance training is characterized by repeated isotonic contractions of large skeletal muscle groups. Both the respiratory system and the cardiovascular system supply energy to the worked muscles. The cardiovascular system contributes by increasing the blood supply and implicitly oxygen, but also the elimination of metabolic waste (lactate, carbon dioxide). These types of sports can also be performed in both environments, indoor and outdoor, but differences will appear between them, taking into account environmental factors, which are often unpredictable.
Strength training
When it comes to strength training, they are based on increased volume and moderate to high intensity, associated with short rest intervals that initially aim at muscle hypertrophy and later on at increasing strength. Strength training takes place over a shorter period of time, compared to endurance training, where cardiovascular resistance is tested over longer periods of time.
Each sport or physical exercise has its particularity, that is why it is indicated that the part of nutrition and supplements be adapted according to the needs of each type of training.
For example:
- For those who practice fitness, if the goal is to lose weight, but still maintain muscle tone, by eliminating as much adipose tissue as possible, it is recommended Slim Formula from Calivitaa complex preparation for stimulating weight loss, which helps to accelerate metabolism and control energy intake. Green tea with the antioxidants it contains and ginger can gently stimulate metabolism and reduce fatigue, which often accompanies weight loss diets. L-carnitine can contribute to an accelerated burning of fats during physical activities, while the fibers from the nopal cactus provide the feeling of satiety.
- For jogging lovers, where the joints are subject to much greater wear and tear, supplementation with RiseUp Multiactive Collagena complex preparation based on biologically active UC-II® collagen and large doses of hydrolyzed type II collagen, which provides support and mobility to the osteoarticular system. The synergistic combination of the 2 types of collagen together with rosehip extract, hyaluronic acid, vitamins, glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM in the product composition exerts a triple effect: it reduces inflammation, soothes pain and supports bone resistance.
- For people who practice pilates, a sport with a lower impact, but also very intense, which can be supported by an optimal intake of protein, such as Shake One Pure. This is a protein meal replacement, with low caloric intake, which perfectly complements weight loss diets, supporting the loss of extra pounds. Through an optimal supply of nutrients, it provides a long-term feeling of satiety, stimulates digestion and prevents the formation of fat deposits. Shake One Pure is a 100% vegan product with the flavor of white chocolate and raspberry, which does not contain sugar, ingredients of animal origin, artificial colors or preservatives.
- For yoga lovers, I recommend organic noni, a complex product created to support health through its content rich in vitamins, amino acids and minerals from 100% organic ingredients. Organic noni increases the energy level and improves the body’s general physical performance, improves the body’s resistance and stimulates the body’s immune defense mechanism, is an excellent anti-inflammatory and, last but not least, contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative stress.
- For those who practice swimming either at a recreational level or at a performance level, I recommend MegaCoQ10 Plus, which comes with a multitude of benefits such as: it supports the health of the heart and the cardiovascular system, improves the function of the heart muscle and stimulates the activity of blood vessels, helps to maintain normal and healthy levels of blood pressure, improves energy production at the cellular level, offers strong antioxidant support, slows down the aging process and extends the duration of the life of the cells, strengthens the immunity and the natural defense function of the body, contributes to the reduction of fatigue, the feeling of exhaustion and increases the power of concentration, increases the body’s resistance and improves the effort capacity in the case of athletes.
Therefore, regardless of the chosen sport, regardless of the chosen place, indoor or outdoor, every athlete needs a well-prepared diet, with meals rich in essential nutrients, a stable sleep routine, optimal hydration and last but not least, the introduction of specific supplements to support the proposed objectives.
