How to stay consistent and constant in training?
Being consistent and consistent in training requires planning, motivation and discipline. We are certainly not born with consistency in us, but as we practice a certain exercise in the gym, we can practice consistency and consistency. I will give you some useful tips: 1. Set clear goals It is very important to define a realistic goal. It is best if it is measurable eg: Reduce the circumference of the waist, thighs, upper arms... Increase strength in two months Reduce the percentage of fat in three months or Relieve back pain Never set an unrealistic goal, be aware of your [...]
Supermaximal Eccentric Training (SET)
Supermaximal eccentric training (SET) is a training method that uses loads greater than maximum concentric loads (over 100% 1RM) in order to achieve specific adaptations in the muscles and nervous system. Ovaj pristup dovodi do znacajnih promena na nivou misicnih vlakana, fascikula i hormona, sto zajedno poboljsava snagu, hipertrofiju i oporavak misica. 1. Titin Protein and the Physiological Basis of Contraction Titin is the largest known protein in the human body and is key to the structural integrity and elasticity of muscles. Connects myosin (thick filaments) to Z-discs in sarcomeres, the basic units of muscle contraction, providing passive elasticity [...]
HIIT
The Most Effective Training for Burning Fat, Increasing Strength and Fitness In today's fast-paced life, we often don't have enough time to devote to long training sessions. If you're looking for a way to burn fat, improve your fitness and tone your body with a minimal investment of time, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is just what you need! HIIT is a training based on the alternation of very intense exercises with short breaks for recovery. This method makes it possible to achieve exceptional results in a very short time - burning calories, improving physical endurance, strengthening muscles and [...]
Insulin resistance
Insulin resistance is a complex physiological condition that plays a significant role in the development of several metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular disease. It is characterized by a reduced response of cells, especially muscle, liver and fatty tissue, to the hormone insulin. Insulin is crucial for regulating blood sugar levels and facilitating the absorption of glucose into cells, where it is used to produce energy. When cells become resistant to the effects of insulin, glucose uptake is disrupted, leading to elevated blood sugar levels, which can have far-reaching health consequences. Causes of insulin resistance: Several [...]
Sports massage
Sports massage has proven to be an essential component of sports training and performance improvement. This specialized form of massage therapy focuses on addressing the unique needs of athletes, both professional and recreational, by targeting specific muscle groups and soft tissues. By combining different techniques, sports massage aims to optimize physical performance, facilitate recovery, prevent injuries and improve general well-being. Physical benefits of sports massage: Improved circulation: Sports massage improves blood flow, which helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the muscles themselves and remove waste products. This increased circulation helps in muscle recovery and reduces the feeling of muscle [...]
Metabolism
Metabolism is the basic process in our body that includes all the chemical reactions necessary for sustaining life. It involves converting food into energy, synthesizing molecules needed for cellular functions, and eliminating waste products. Understanding the principles of metabolism is key to understanding how our bodies work and how physical activity and training can affect this complex process. Metabolism can be broadly divided into two categories: catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism refers to the breakdown of complex molecules into simpler substances, releasing the energy of the process. Anabolism, on the other hand, involves the synthesis of complex molecules from simpler [...]
Tendinopathy
The term tendinopathy refers to a group of painful tendon disorders characterized by degenerative changes in the tendons, which result in pain, swelling and reduced function. Tendinopathy is a broad term that includes both tendonitis (inflammation of the tendon) and tendinosis (degenerative changes in the tendon without significant inflammation). Tendinopathy can occur in various tendons throughout the body, with the Achilles tendon, patellar tendon, rotator cuff tendons, and elbow being the most commonly affected. Tendinopathy often results from repetitive motion or excessive stress on the tendon, leading to microtrauma and degeneration over time. Tendons naturally undergo degeneration during aging, [...]
