WHAT IS AN ATHLETE?

The word athlete describes a that participates in a sport. Using that definition, Tiger Woods, a collegiate golfer, as well as a weekend golfer are all athletes. Clearly there's differences among these golfers. One difference is skill and another is training. Elite athletes, like Tiger Woods, are exceptionally expert and dedicated to their training regimes. Their lives are planned around their training and competition schedules because athletic competition is their profession.

Collegiate athletes are also trained athletes, although the level of their training is probably less than that of their professional counterparts.

Dedication to training is important because proper training is necessary to improve and maintain performance. Plenty of people are recreational athletes. A number of them are former

competitive athletes who continue to train, albeit at a lower level, to stay competitive within their age group in masters events. However, plenty of recreational athletes train tiny, if at all.

They participate in sports to be physically active, to maintain a healthy lifestyle, and for enjoyment.

Improving your cardio fitness

Structure your cardio sessions to complement your weight training

1   Don’t do weights and cardio back to back 

If your main goal is to build muscle, keep weights and

cardio sessions separate. Doing cardio immediately

before weights will leave you feeling tired and will lead to poor lifting performance. Doing cardio straight after a weights session can undo the musclebuilding

effects of a workout. The answer is to do them

on separate days, which gives your muscles time to recover between sessions.

 2 ..Change your routine
When you start a run – or any other type of cardio activity – your body uses energy from its own fat supplies and the food you’ve eaten. After about 45 minutes of exercise it then switches to take energy
from your muscles, and will eventually break down
muscle tissue as you steadily plod away. The solution,
unsurprisingly, is to keep your cardio sessions to under 45 minutes in length. To avoid losing out on the cardio benefits of a long run, make your sessions intense. The best way to do this is by doing intervals. An interval session involves periods of intense activity followed by
periods of lower intensity recovery. Try the interval
session in the box below. As your fitness improves, you

can increase the duration or intensity of intervals without lengthening the session.



1   Keep eating
The right nutrition is vital to achieving the body you want. If you’re doing both weight training and cardio it becomes even more important because you need to fuel your exertions in the cardio sessions and still have enough calories to build the muscle you’ve trained so hard for.

Home gym advantages

Working out at home and working out in a gym both have advantages and disadvantages.Here’s how to get the most out of a home set-up

It’s cost effective
You can do a huge variety of moves with a gym ball, dumbbells and a pull-up bar, the combined cost of which can be under £50. The more kit you buy the more expensive it’ll be, but you can build a versatile home gym without breaking the bank. If you stick to your plans and achieve your fitness goals, you’ll be glad you made the investment.

You’ll save time
A major benefit of working out at home is that you don’t have to travel if you want to train.



It’s flexible
Your home gym will always be open so if you suddenly get the urge to do a workout, you can. And if you want to train at antisocial hours, you can do that too.


You don’t have to queue for kit
Unless you invite friends to join you, you’ll be the only one using your kit. That means no waiting around for someone else to finish their sets and you can make sure you stick to your rest periods.


No gym villains
In your own home you won’t have to contend with

posers on mobile phones, people with hygiene issues and ugly naked men who spend far too long towelling themselves off in the changing rooms.

Get motivated

You’ll need to stay motivated to achieve your goals. Here’s how to maintain your workout enthusiasm

Set realistic, measurable goals
Don’t set yourself up for a fall by aiming for something unrealistic such as losing two stone in two weeks. A measurable goal, such as wanting to lift 80kg on the

bench press, will give you focus and you can track your progress.




Change your routine
Every two weeks you should make a change to your routine. It could be something simple such as the order of your exercises or introducing variations of a move. Doing that keeps your workouts fresh and gives your body the stimulus it needs to keep progressing.



Give it five minutes
On days where you’re struggling for motivation, get changed into your workout gear and do five minutes of your routine. The chances are that you’ll want to carry on and do your full workout. If you don’t want to carry on, you need to look at your overall programme to work out why you’re so unmotivated.




Take a step back
If you’re really struggling, ask yourself what’s making things difficult. Are you doing the same thing over and over again, are you stressed or not inspired by your
environment? There will be a reason. As soon as you’ve identified that obstacle you can try to do something about it.



Keep a training diary
Recording and seeing your progression down on paper gives you great motivation. You don’t have to record every detail of your workout, you could just write down your performance for the two biggest lifts in your workout. That will also help you realise when you need to change your
routine because you’ll easily spot when you’ve stopped progressing.

If you’re new to weight training, follow this advice to avoid injury

Warm up properly

Always warm up properly before doing any serious exercise (Warm-up, Stretching, Foam rolling). This will help you to stay injury free.



Stop if it hurts  
If you feel pain at any time during your workout, stop immediately. The saying ‘no pain, no gain’ is popular in with old-school PE teachers who don’t know what they’re talking about. Working through pain could do serious damage to muscles, joints or tendons.



Watch your form
Maintain perfect form for every repetition of every exercise. Each exercise in this book comes with detailed notes on form. If you don’t have good form you won’t get the full benefit of the exercise and may injure yourself.



Start light
Pick a weight you can manage easily the first time you perform any lifting exercise. This way you can concentrate on performing the exercise perfectly, and then you can build up the weight over time



Brace your core
You can help to stabilise your body and reduce your injury risk by engaging your core during an exercise.To do this, start by ensuring that you are standing or sitting up straight with your hips in line with your torso. Now imagine that someone is about to punch you in the stomach and you have to tense your abdominal muscles to take the blow. You need to maintain that contraction throughout the move to protect your lower back from muscle strains.




Keep training
