“It is necessary to keep the strength of the body in order to keep the strength of your spirit,” Hugo once said. And now, MILLION knows that sports changes people for sure! Alina Savenkova, double vice-champion of Ukraine (UBPF) in the Physique Model category, a personal trainer at the GYMMAXX fitness center is truly positive on that point. She has named eight major rules, the fulfillment of which will guarantee positive results and make you healthier, more energetic and happier!
1.Our lungs consume about 8 liters of oxygen at rest. During workouts, the volume of inhaled air can increase to 100 liters. This improves both metabolic processes and our immunity. Breathe deeper and more intense!
2. Regular exercises improve the functioning of the heart muscle, thus improving blood circulation. Thereby, blood vessels’ walls become stronger. But watch out and do not overdo it with the load - ask the coach for advice.
3. Sports boost nervous processes. The brain learns to respond faster to stimuli to make right decisions. Do sports and you will improve your mental mobility!
4. Sport helps to be more confident. Moreover, we produce hormones of happiness and joy during sports!
5. Sport is a great alternative to chocolate. The more you do sports, the less you want to eat sweets. As soon as you begin to exercise, you will not be able to eat as before - more healthy food will appear in the diet.
6. After regular exercises for 3-4 months, a smoker can completely stop using cigarettes! And there are proven cases of that practice.
7. During exercises, all of our hormones adapt the body to stress. Sports strengthen the spirit. If earlier you had thoughts that you could not do something, there will be less and less of them with each workout.
8. It has been scientifically proven that doing sports, especially stretching, helps women to become pregnant, since stretching improves blood circulation in the pelvic organs and, consequently, improves reproductive function.
