In our daily lives, we also exercise, but relatively few of us stick to it. First of all, our outdoor sports are boring, secondly, we can't see the effect in the short term and lose confidence. Therefore, quite a few people choose to go to the gym to exercise. Not only can they encourage themselves after seeing the fitness results of their peers, but they can also spend money on exercise, and if you don't move, you're wasting time. Therefore, you will also exercise hard. What does the gym equipment do? Let's talk briefly about common aerobic fitness equipment.
1. Treadmill
Treadmill should be the most popular and common aerobic exercise equipment, its intensity can be adjusted, fat reduction effect is also very good, many people rely on the treadmill to maintain a healthy posture. The Angle of the treadmill's track panel is different from the Angle of the ground when running outdoors. It is recommended to add a slight incline when running to mimic the intensity of the natural uphill running state. When running, the upper body should be kept straight, the head should be stable, the whole body should be straight forward, and rely on the strength of the body forward to push forward.
2. Spin bikes
According to general exercise data, the weight loss effect of rotating bicycles is very good. A course of about an hour can consume more than 500 kcal. The reason is also simple and crude: high intensity. However, rotary bikes are prone to knee injury when riding, so more attention is needed when using them.
Keep your shoulders down when riding. Keep your stomach in and pay attention to the rhythm of your feet. Don't lift your hands off the handlebars or do push-ups. Swaying from side to side and other movements. Try to learn from the exercise coach to reduce the risk of exercise. People with knee or lumbar injuries should not ride a spinning bike. If you're not sure, don't make a dangerous move.
3. Elliptical machine
The elliptical machine was invented as a rehabilitation device because it has less impact on joints, especially the knee joint. When using an elliptical machine, hold the handle with both hands, keep your upper body straight, and keep your heels on the pedal. The device is very safe and easy to operate, so you don't have to worry too much about the danger.
4. Exercise bikes
Stationary bikes look like spinning bikes, but they are actually different pieces of equipment. Exercise bikes in the field of sports science are known as exercise bikes "power bikes" and are divided into upright. There are two kinds of horizontal exercise bikes, which can adjust the intensity of exercise and play a role in fitness, so people call them exercise bikes.
Exercise bike is a typical aerobic fitness equipment that simulates outdoor sports and can improve the body's physique. Of course, it is also accompanied by the consumption of fat, and long-term consumption of fat will have the effect of losing weight.
5. Rowing machine
In addition to aerobic exercise, the training of the upper body, especially the back muscles, cannot be compared with running and cycling. It is easy for a novice to make mistakes when using a rowing machine. A proper rowing maneuver should consist of three stages:
Kicking: From a complete standstill, the body needs the most explosive power to start, so it is with the legs. Hip strength to go. At this time, the upper body should be tense, so that the force of the kick is transmitted through the upper body to the arms, pulling the rope.
Leaning back: Rowing machines don't have inertia, but our bodies do. After straightening the legs, the body still has a backward inertia. We keep our upper body straight and immediately lean back to lengthen the rope.
Stroke: Push straight on the leg. In a reclining posture, you also need to use the strength of your upper back and arms to give the last part of the rope force to pull the rope to the longest. The rope is pulled to the position of the ribs under the chest muscles, the shoulders are spread back, and the downward pressure is maintained. You can't shrug it off.
Rowing machines are common in large gyms, while ordinary gyms are rarely seen. If you want to buy one to practice at home, just buy one that is electromagnetically good, rugged, and perfect for the experience.
Regardless of the exercise goal, aerobic training or strength training alone is one-sided. Gradual training and a variety of training methods will not only increase the enjoyment of sports, but also improve physical fitness more comprehensively.
