How To End Your Daily Workout : STRETCHING

Posted by AJ Wednesday, April 23, 2008 0 comments

End your workout with 10 minutes of stretching.
This area is often overlooked by men. It is extremely important to stretch as it opens up the worked out muscles, preventing stiff joints and soreness.
Following are few stretching techniques to open up your muscles.

Toe Touch
Stand and slowly bend forwards from the hip reaching down for your toes. Hold on to your legs without bouncing.
The stretch should be held for 20 seconds.
You should feel it in your back, hips and back of the legs.


Chest, Biceps and Shoulder Stretch
Stand and link your fingers behind your hips. Raise the arms as high as possible pushing the chest out to the front.
Hold for 20 seconds.



Back Stretch
Link your fingers to the front. Now push the hands forward and round your back towards the back wall. Feel the stretch all over the back.



Quadriceps stretch
Bend your right knee and pull the heel into the hip with your hands. Repeat with other leg. You will feel a stretch in the front of your thighs.




Abs Stretch
Lie on your tummy. Prop yourself up on your elbows. Push the elbows into the floor and backwards while pulling your torso forwards and upwards. Feel a stretch in the tummy.
Relax with your face turned over to one side for 2-3 minutes relaxing your breathing.



Follow the above stretches after your daily workout and relax your muscles, so that next day you can again charge them up with out any strains.

Posted by AJ Saturday, April 19, 2008 0 comments

Friends this is the last phase of New Age Workout Techniques, in the last two phase I have explained about the techniques for Upper body parts and lower body parts along with ABs. In this post am explaining about how to work on your Back, Hips and ur Tummy and to have that balance body you have to trim these parts other wise u will end up in a unbalanced one.
New Age Workout: Phase - III

Its all about balance, strength and flexibility. These exercises give you an edge over the typical bulked up, stiff gym guys!
1. Hip and Leg Lift: A Pilates based exercise that works the Back, Hips and Thighs.
Sit reclined fingers turned towards your body with your legs extended straight out in front of you. Lift yourself up till your body is in a straight diagonal plane. This is the start position. Lift the right leg up as high as you can and as you lower it down, lower your hips towards the floor without letting them rest the floor. Keep alternating legs.
Do 16 reps, rest and repeat.

2. The Swan on the Ball: Lie with your Tummy on the Ball.
Straighten the legs out to the back. Link your fingers under your chin, nose pointing down to the floor. Squeeze your back muscles and lift your chest up as high as possible. Lower and place your hands on the floor. Now lift both your legs off the floor squeezing your lower back muscles. Lower the legs and then repeat from the upper body move.
16 reps, rest and repeat.

Posted by AJ Thursday, April 17, 2008 0 comments

Friends in my last blog I have talk about the New Age Workouts and which is still continuing. In the last post the three exercise that I explained that mostly for your upper body parts, but the three exercises that i am explaining here are mainly for your Abs and lower body parts like hips & thighs.

As it is essential to have both our upper & lower body banaced to have an excellent body this New Age Workout techiques takes care of each and every part of your body, thats why these are widely popular these days and mostly it will helps you develop your Abs easily.

New Age Workout: Phase - II

Its all about balance, strength and flexibility. So here we use the ball, only for todays exercises. These exercises give you an edge over the typical bulked up, stiff gym guys!

1. Lunges: Works your Quadriceps, Hips, Inner and Outer Thighs
Balance yourself on your left leg and place your right leg on the ball, keeping it close to your left leg. Now extend the left leg to the side rolling the ball out and simultaneously bending your left knee, pushing your hip backwards. Straighten the leg and bring the ball back in towards the left leg.
16 reps rest and repeat. Then change legs and do 2 sets.

2. Pass the Ball Abs: Works the Upper and Lower Abdominals
Lie on your back, holding the ball in your hands overhead. Raise your legs straight up to 90 degrees. Now raise the ball up to pass it onto your legs. Grip the ball between your feet and lower your legs till they are about 30 degrees off from the floor. Lift the legs up again and pass the ball to your hands. Take your hands back to the overhead position and repeat.
Every time you perform a lifting move, you will be using yoru abdominal muscles. Contract them hard.
Do 16 reps, rest and repeat.
3. Obliques: Works the Oblique Abdominal muscles that criss-cross in front of your Tummy.
Sit on the ball and very slowly roll out till your lower and middle back are supported on the ball. Link your fingers behind your head. Lift and twist your body towards the left leg, squeezing your tummy muscles. Lower to start position and repeat.
Work one side at a time. Do 16 reps then repeat the other side.



By doing this exercise on the ball you are challenging your balance and stability which makes the exercise tougher to do that on the floor.

New AGE WorkOut : Simple Exercises to have an Edge with Balance, Strength and Flexibility

Posted by AJ Wednesday, April 16, 2008 0 comments

Whenever we saw people having body with solid cuts, we wonder how many hours he must be spending in a gym, and when we saw a person having that kind of body but have the ultimate flexibility we start work in our brain is that really possible. A Body with both Strength and Flexibility what every one wants because that is the sign of a perfect balanced body. But very few people have that idea how to build it. And in getting that most of the people end up spending hours in the gym and as a result if at all they gain strength they have loosened their flexibility.

Any one who have seen the body of Bollywood Superstar Hritik Roshan, he/she doesn't need to explain whats a body with strength & flexibility is. The cuts on the chest, biceps, shoulders shows the ultimate strength while his dance moves may it be from latest Crazy4 or Lakhya or Koi Mil Gaya shows the ultimate flexibility one can have.

As in this section of my blog I am explaining about simple exerises that you can do at your home with few things and can become the owner of a very beautiful body and can become envy of any regular gym guy.

This ultimate balanced body can be built at your own mini Gym with New Age Workout Techniques. You doesn't required high power machines for that only a tube and a ball can give you that strength and flexibility.

There are in total Eight exercises in this New Age Workout Techniques. In this blog I will train you about the first three for which you need a tube only.

New Age Workout : Phase - I

These exercises give you an edge over the typical bulked up, stiff gym guys!
1. Bicep Curls: This works your biceps and balance
Stand on the center of the tube with one leg. Keep the other knee raised. Hold both handles of the tube in your hands, arms by your sides and palms facing forwards. Bend your elbows and bring your hands to your shoulders. Lower to start position.
Do one set of 16 reps, rest and repeat standing on other leg. To add to the challenge, raise the knee up and down.
2. Triceps Extension and Calf Raise: This exercise works your triceps, calves and seriously challenges balance and coordination.
Hold the tube in your hands as shown in the illustration. Stand with your feet hip distance apart and tummy muscles tight. Make sure your back does not arch. Perform the triceps extension and calf raise simultaneously.
Lift the top hand, till the arm is straight up towards the ceiling, pulling at the tube. Gently lower. At the same time, come up on your toes, lifting your heels as high as possible, squeezing your calves and gently lower.
Try not to touch your feet to the floor as you come down.
Do one set of 16 reps, rest and repeat with the other arm.
3. Lateral Raise: Works your shoulders
Stand on the tube with your feet wide apart. Cross the tube, holding the opposite handles in the hands, palms facing each other. Raise the arms out to the sides till they are in line with the shoulders and no higher. Slowly lower.
Do One set of 16 reps, rest and repeat.
The rest of the five exercise I will explain in my next Blog. You can have an advance edge over any gym going body builder the only thing required is you motivation to be the owner of a strong and beautiful body and you should be regular in your workout otherwise it will not help you.
