Understanding the Purpose of Aerobic Training |
Dr. Bob stated the purpose of aerobic training is to increase the body's natural resting metabolism safely. Then the body will burn fat easier during exercise, during regular activities, and during rest. Dr. Bob said the idea in aerobics is to bring the resting heart rate down. For instance, if your resting heart rate is 72, then your aim would be an aerobics program to get it down 20% to about a heart rate of 58. Dr. Bob said, this is the difference in the metabolism of a twenty-year-old and a fifty-year-old.
Dr. Bob cautioned in the following ideas, do not let your heart rate exceed 140 beats per minute. To train above 140 beats per minute should be done in consultation with a doctor. The following are the ideas and opinions of Dr. Bob. These ideas about aerobic training are quite different from most experts and before doing any of them consult your physician to be sure you are healthy enough to do them.
Dr. Bob said the idea about aerobics is to train to gain a lowered heartbeat at rest. Therefore the idea is not to get an immediate calorie burn. To improve your metabolism is how the training should be defined.
The first week you start the following for just three minutes. You start by jogging for 30 seconds. You run hard for 30 seconds. You jog for 30 seconds. You run hard for 30 seconds. Keep checking your heart rate. If it gets above 140 then slow your hard running down. This is a total of 3 minutes. Each week add one minute of the jog and the hard run. By about week 4 you will discover your resting heart rate as improved.
There is an article on this web site called "Overtraining." It is in the section called weightlifting. It describes how to determine your basal heartbeat. If you want to see if this training method improves your metabolism, then determine your basal heartbeat using the method described in "Overtraining." This will allow you to check things out in the fourth week to see if there is an improvement.
Dr. Bob said increase this training whenever your level of fitness improved. Wait at least a week between all increases. He advised to train up to 5 days each week with at least two days off. He said to not train less than 4 days a week in order to get optimal results. Dr. Bob said when you get this training up to 15 minutes a session you are at "Chuck Norris levels."
Dr. Bob advised to aid in gaining stamina take the form of ginseng called Ginsana. Dr. Bob said almost no forms of ginseng have been shown under test conditions to give great gains in stamina. A few forms of ginseng known as the extract of ginseng G115 are the exception. Ginsana is one that Dr. Bob says can improve stamina tremendously. The dose he advised was 100 mg of Ginsana before the training to help stamina. He also recommended to take Ginsana as a supplement twice a day in the AM and PM. So take it once before the workout and one other 100-mg dose during the day.
In conclusion, one idea is to train aerobically to improve the resting heart rate metabolism. This will help lose weight, make metabolism more efficient, allow for a greater calorie burn 24-hours-a-day, and other benefits.
Note In order for these anti-aging ideas to be successful, you must use supplements of the highest quality. Dr. Bob often said, "almost all supplement companies produce poor quality." You can consider the
product page of this web site. Almost all the products met Dr. Bobs approval. Since he passed away we have attempted to keep the same high standards.
