Exercise guidelines
Building Muscle and Gaining
Weight
Unlike aerobic exercise, which emphasizes
endurance training, anaerobic exercise focuses on
strength training. A gradual weight gain can occur
while building the size and strength of muscles.
While developing muscle mass, your body adapts
to the stress placed upon it. You can modify
your diet to include foods such as meat, fish and
vegetables.
These foods help muscles recover and replenish
important nutrients after a strenuous workout.
Muscle Strength and Endurance
To achieve the greatest benefit from exercise, it
is important to develop an exercise program that
allows you to work all of the major muscle groups
equally.
To increase muscles strength; follow this principle:
Increasing resistance and maintaining the number
of repetitions of an exercise results in increased
muscle strength.
To tone your body, follow the principle:
Decreasing resistance plus increasing the number
of repetitions of an exercise results in increased
body tone.
Once you feel comfortable with an exercise,
you can change the resistance, the number of
repetitions, or the speed at which you do the
exercise. It is not necessary to change all three
variables. For example, let's say that you are
training at 10 kg. and performing the exercise
10 times in 3 minutes. When this becomes too
easy, you may decide to move up lifting 12 kg.
for the same number of repetitions in the same
amount of time. Lifting more weights fewer
times most often develops muscle strength. To
