Gasp for breath

Fitness for flexibility

These stretching exercises help to release neuro-muscular tension and will allow the muscle fibres to gradually gain fluidity and stretching capacity as the exercises are repeated.
You should stretch the muscles and stop just before the pain threshold, which indicates that you have reached the muscular limit on the stretching put in place.
Lose weight

For a better workout, it is advisable to opt for « polyarticular » movements that complement each other and allow you to lose calories quickly. It is possible to add a cardio part at the beginning of the session in order to stimulate the body and raise its temperature. On the other hand, it is preferable to add another cardio session a little more intense at the end of the session.
Bulk up
Weight training can help tone the figure. In fact, by combining high cardio exercises with specific muscle-building exercises, you will achieve a slim body and well-designed muscles.

In fact, food represents 70% of work compared to 30% for sport. So it comes as no surprise that it is essential to eat a balanced diet in order to achieve the desired results.
