Looking to Start a Strength Training Routine?

There are some basic concepts that should be followed to build strength. Depending on the individual’s fitness goals, he or she may want to do specific things. Bodybuilders focus on muscle size and symmetry. Endurance athletes desire to develop muscular endurance and stamina. Explosiveness is the objective for power athletes. Powerlifters attempt to lift the maximal weight possible. Each has specific goals which will be developed in very different training routines. Those who desire to develop a sound general fitness base should focus on the health-related fitness components of muscular endurance and muscular strength.

BASIC CONCEPTS FOR STRENGTH TRAINING

CROSS-TRAINING SESSION

This training session is focused on improving flexibility, movement and muscular endurance. Athletic-in-nature, this workout strives to use the benefits of sports conditioning and address mobility from both a movement and flexibility standpoint.

MILITARY CROSS-TRAINING: Calisthenics Plus a Conditioning Hike

This workout was modeled after physical training sessions common in the armed forces special operations community. Cardiovascular and muscular endurance are perquisites for these service members being that everything they carry on a mission, they carry on their backs. Marine infantry units complete twenty-five mile marches in under eight hours wearing forty pound packs and carrying their weapons.

This Flab-to-Fit workout will be somewhat less intense but will still develop core and leg strength as well as stamina using a combination of calisthenics and a conditioning hike.

CROSS-TRAINING WORKOUT

This cross-training session includes a general warm-up, two core strengthening periods, a circuit-training period, a calisthenics period and stretching.

The intent of the circuit training period is to introduce a circuit involving running mixed with strength-building exercises, maximizing a stamina impact. The calisthenics are designed to build strength and endurance. This first core period focuses on core stability with a plank and bridge circuit. This period is conducted as a circuit with no rest between exercises. The second core period is aimed at developing abdominal strength with several sets of abdominal crunches.

CROSS-TRAINING WORKOUT FOR BEGINNERS

This cross-training session is divided into four parts; warm-up, calisthenics, running and cool down.

The calisthenics portion includes five separate supersets, each including push-ups plus one other exercise. Complete each superset three times before moving on to the next superset. There is no rest between exercises and thirty seconds rest between sets.

The running portion includes four sets of fifteen meter strides with sixty seconds rest between each. Strides are run which are slower than sprints but faster than jogging, somewhere about fifty percent of maximum speed.

CIRCUIT TRAINING FOR STRENGTH & ENDURANCE

The goal of circuit training is to develop strength and endurance through a systematic program involving various stations where exercises are performed. These exercises should be performed in a vigorous manner for a short period of time before moving on to the next station and different exercise.

Cardiovascular and muscular endurance circuits develop cardiovascular and muscular fitness through the use of calisthenics coupled with jogging. Individuals who train using the aforementioned workout and training principles enjoy three distinct benefits:

• Progressive training and overload to gradually improve conditioning;
• Ability to train individually or simultaneously with a group;
• Improvement of both endurance and muscle tone in a single training session.

10 MINUTE DAILY WARM-UP

Like well organized physical conditioning plans, daily warm-up routines proceed in a progressive manner:

1. Walk During a five-minute walk, include arm circles and arm swings, high knees, and butt kicks and well as short jogging intervals.

2. Mobility Exercises These relatively low-exertion exercises mobilize various body movements and actively ease the body into motion and preparation for the additional physical stress of calisthenics.

3. Calisthenics These bodyweight exercises further mobilize the body, strengthen targeted muscle groups and are the final step in preparing the body for conditioning activities presented in the daily workout.
