    GUIDELINES > Get off on the right foot and stay motivated. Realize that any new habit is difficult to establish at first, but it can be done. Follow these steps and you'll be on your way to establishing and using your home fitness center for improved health and fitness.
  • Page 14: Muscular Strength

    GUIDELINES STEPS TO GETTING STARTED > Muscular Strength The new guidelines have added resistance training since the ACSM recognizes the increasing importance of maintaining strength as a health benefit as we get older. The rationale for the addition of strength training to the guidelines is a result of a ten year follow-up study on master runners (along with other studies).
  • Page 15: Flexibility

    Keep in mind that the ACSM recommendations are guidelines for the average person, not a champion athlete training for the Olympic Games. An appropriate warm-up and cool-down, which would also include flexibility exercises, is also recommended. While many of you will need to train with more mileage and at a greater intensity to race competitively, the important factor to remember for most people is that if they follow the ACSM guidelines of physical activity they will attain increased physical and health benefits at the lowest risk.

    GUIDELINES TABLE 1 EXERCISE GUIDELINES Varied training in all three of these zones will add to increased levels of fitness and improved performance and add more energy to your life. "Most training programs use a combination of train- ing intensities to increase performance capacity," according to J. T. Kearney, Ph.D., Senior Exercise Physiologist at the U.
  • Page 19: Make Exercise A Habit

    So if the Surgeon General's findings are not convincing evidence enough to keep most us exercising on a consistent basis, what is? Scientists are finding that the process of beginning, increasing and ultimately sticking to an exercise program is a combination of two elements: finding the right incentives and building a habit.

    GUIDELINES 4. Develop a constructive attitude. Do not focus on what you are giving up to exercise on a regular basis, but on what new options you'll have after you become fit. 5. Engage your body and mind. Connect on a deeper level, you'll be more likely to stay with your routine.
