Should You Do A High Intensity Workout?

There is no valid reason that a healthy person should maintain a low intensity exercise regimen unless they simply aren’t really interested in seeing real results. A low intensity workout, defined as exercises during which your heart rate is around 60% of its maximum rate, are fairly inefficient for anything other than very slow and gradual weight loss. They won’t help you boost your metabolism, they won’t aid significantly in building muscle mass, and they don’t do much for strength and endurance.

One thing I learned about exercising is the THRESHOLD. You have to reach it and hit it. Once you hit it, you will genuinely love exercising.

I could not hit the threshold when I was casually jogging in the park or hiking. But I hit it in the gym.. and I am sharing with you on what I learn in one year:

Why joining a gym is good if you are not a born exercise freak:

1. You pay high membership fee- paying will at least make up get up from the sofa and TV and push you to go.

The Power of Habit

One of the most influential forces to shape many of our actions in life is the power of habit . Habit is often overlooked (perhaps because of its simplicity) when we consider why we do or don’t do certain things. If a person were to ask: “Why do I come home from work and sit in front of the TV instead of going for a walk?” or “Why do I go to the refrigerator every time I’m bored?” it seems too easy to answer “Because I’m used to doing it” . But the reality is you do it because it has become a HABIT.
