What is fitness?
Fitness is a kind of exercise, such as all kinds of unarmed aerobics, rhythmic gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, and all kinds of self-resistance movements. Gymnastics can enhance the strength, flexibility, endurance, coordination and control of all parts of the body, thus making the body strong. If you want to relieve stress, exercise at least three times a week.

Exercise the heart. Swimming, brisk walking, jogging, cycling and all aerobic exercises can exercise the heart. Aerobic exercise has many benefits: it can exercise the heart and lungs, enhance the function of the circulatory system, burn fat, increase vital capacity, lower blood pressure, and even prevent diabetes and reduce the occurrence of heart disease. The American College of Sports Medicine suggests that if you want to know whether the intensity of aerobic exercise is appropriate, you can test your heart rate to reach 60%-90% of the highest heart rate after exercise. If you want to lose weight through aerobic exercise, you can choose low to moderate exercise intensity and extend exercise time. This method consumes more calories. Exercise frequency is 3-5 times a week, 20-60 minutes each time.

Bodybuilding muscles. If you want to exercise your muscles, you can do weight lifting, gymnastics and other exercises that repeatedly stretch and flex your muscles. Muscle exercise can burn calories, enhance bone density, reduce the chance of injury, especially joint injury, and prevent osteoporosis. Before you lift weights, measure them. If you can lift eight times in a row, practice from this weight. When you can lift this weight 12 times in a row, try to increase the weight by 5%. Pay attention to lifting 8- 12 times in a row every exercise, so as to reach 70%-80% of the maximum endurance of muscles, and the exercise effect is good. 2-3 times a week, but avoid exercising the same group of muscles for two consecutive days to give the muscles sufficient recovery time.

The scope of fitness is very wide, and exercise is only one part of fitness. Besides exercise, there are many things in fitness, such as writing, singing and doing housework.

There are many kinds of exercises in fitness, including a complete set of unarmed bodybuilding gymnastics; There are also light equipment gymnastics such as balls and sticks, which are mainly used for women's bodybuilding training to achieve the purpose of losing weight, improving body shape, improving flexibility and enhancing rhythm; There are many weightlifting exercises and other sports that can develop muscles in all parts of the body.

In order to keep fit, special training methods are needed. For example, when using barbells and other weightlifting equipment to do various movements, there are special requirements and arrangements in terms of equipment weight, action mode, number and frequency of arranged groups, action speed and so on.

Fitness equipment can be roughly divided into three types:

① General fitness equipment: such as domestic 10 comprehensive training equipment and 16 functional fitness equipment;

② Local fitness equipment: such as fitness bicycles, rowing machines, stair climbing machines, treadmills, leg bending machines, heavy hammer tensioners, lift heel exercisers, etc.

③ Small fitness equipment: dumbbells, kettle bells, crank barbells, spring tensioners, fitness discs, elastic bars, handles, etc.

(A) the whole body fitness equipment

Belonging to comprehensive training equipment; It can be used by many people to cycle or selectively practice on a musical instrument at the same time.

12, comprehensive training machine

Also called multifunctional trainer, it is specially designed for bodybuilders and professional athletes. Its advantage is that it can perform 10 to more than 50 kinds of full-body strength exercises. The load device (resistance device) adopts high-strength rubber blocks (iron-clad blocks), which overcomes the noise of the weight-adjusting blocks. The variable load has the advantages of constant-speed strength exercise, which is simple and easy to master, and has few chances of injury. Good quality instruments design resistance according to human body structure, so as to ensure uniform resistance of the whole movement, simple weight addition and subtraction and good training effect. Its disadvantage is that it can only act according to the designed route, which has great limitations. You can't practice explosiveness.
