Exercise To Improve Cholesterol And Enhance Quality Of Health

Many people do not realize the significant health benefits that are obtained by including physical activity and exercise into their daily routine. In fact, physical activity and plotted exercise should be part of every person’s lifestyle. Just a small physical activity and exercise will result in some health-related benefits, while more physical activity and exercise can result in even greater health benefits. So if you are physically inactive, becoming active will cause some blood lipid and lipoprotein change, but if you are already physically active or follow a plotted exercise program and have elevated HDL-C levels, you will need to incorporate more physical activity and plotted exercise in order to give additional lipid and lipoprotein changes, you need to include plotted exercise in your daily routine. You must know that the more you exercise, the greater the lipid and lipoprotein changes you are likely to achieve and when you incorporate more physical activity or plotted exercise in your lifestyle and then maintain this activity level throughout your life, the health-related benefits continue to develop and thus achieving a lifelong fitness regime.

Through proper exercise and nutritional counseling and adherence to a healthy lifestyle, most people can control their blood cholesterol, but due to genetic conditions some individuals require medications to lower their blood cholesterol. Even responses to dietary changes are influenced by genetic factors. For example, some people have low cholesterol despite consuming a diet high in saturated stout, being obese, and getting small exercise. At the same time, some people have an unacceptable blood cholesterol and lipoprotein profile despite careful attention to health-related factors. Likewise, the effect of exercise on blood cholesterol and lipoproteins can be influenced by genetics (J. Larry Durstine. Phd, 2006).

Many people are not sure whether walking or jogging is the best type, or mode of exercise to get the greatest lipid and lipoprotein change. The answer is simple: you can get the same lipid and lipoprotein change regardless of the mode of exercise you choose, and there are many exercises, such as Tai Chi, Wushu, cycling, rowing and hiking to choose from. Your ultimate goal is to expend energy equal to 1,200 to 1,500 kcal per week. This can also be achieved with different mode of exercise which can deliver this required amount of energy expenditure.

As mentioned above, the intensity of the exercise session, or simply place how hard you work, is vital. But, although exercise intensity has some role in optimizing lipid and lipoprotein changes, the most vital consideration is the volume of exercise completed. You may argue that the quicker and harder you work, the greater the volume of exercise you complete in a set time period. Unfortunately, this argument is not always right. If the exercise intensity is too high, you may not be able to exercise long enough to reach the required volume of exercise necessary to optimize your blood lipid and lipoprotein profile. The appropriate exercise intensity changes from 40% to 60% of your maximal exercise level; it is the work rate achieved by brisk walking or slow jogging for at least 30 minutes. This can also be achieved by continuous practice of Tai Chi routine with wrist weights for at least 45min.

Finally, some people’s bodies will respond to increased physical activity and plotted exercise programming by improving the blood lipid and lipoprotein profile, but some will not. Many other factors contribute to your lipid and lipoprotein profile, and one of these factors is genetics. There is evidence that most people respond to exercise, or are known as responders, while there are also few individuals who do not respond to exercise or respond with less than optimal lipid and lipoprotein changes are referred to as nonresponders. The lipoprotein Lp(a) is a excellent example. Exercise does not affect a change in this lipoprotein because it is genetically determined.

Progressive Muscle Relaxation

Progressive muscle relaxation [PMR] is a relaxation technique of stress management developed by American physician Edmund Jacobson in 1934. This progressive muscle relaxation technique is focused on tensing and releasing tensions in the 16 different muscle groups. Jacobson reasoned that since muscular tension is usually followed as a by product of anxiety, one can lower and reduce anxiety by understanding and learning how to self relax those muscular tension.

Exercise and Weight Loss

]]>

While is is well-known that exercise is a necessity for effective weight loss, there is quite a bit of conflicting information as to what kind of exercise and how much of it will produce optimal stout burning. Experts often disagree as to what the “right” exercise is for maximum weight loss. This disagreement is often due to a misinterpretation of research that only gives a part of the whole tale. In addition, different individuals will really benefit from different exercise programs, so universal exercise recommendations really cannot be made.

Let’s start with what the current research on exercise physiology tells us. It is well-established that it takes approximately 30 minutes of any kind of exercise for the body to burn off its glycogen (stored sugar) reserves and start burning stout. So, most experts recommend at least 30 minutes of exercise, and generally 60 minutes or more may be recommended to get a excellent amount of stout burning. Now, if you are going to be exercising for 30 to 60 minutes, or maybe more, what type of exercise would you be able to do for that length of time? It probably would have to be low to medium intensity. In other words, you’re probably not going to be able to run full speed or do any other type of high-intensity exercise for 30 to 60 minutes without a rest, unless you happen to be an elite athlete, and even then you’d be struggling. So, by default, the common recommendation for exercise to lose weight has been 30 to 60 minutes of low to medium intensity aerobic exercise. Aerobic translates to “in the presence of oxygen”, which in common language means that aerobic exercise is any type of activity that you can do without gasping for breath.

In recent years, some experts have changed their recommendations to using a more intense anaerobic (“without oxygen”) exercise program for weight loss. This would include things like intense weight lifting, and something called “interval training”. Interval training involves brief bursts of high intensity activity with periods of rest or low intensity activity in between. For instance, your could sprint at full speed for 30 to 60 seconds and once you were winded, you could walk at an simple pace for a couple of minutes until you could catch your breath, then repeat the cycle several more times.. Since this type of exercise is much more physically demanding, it is done over a much shorter overall workout period – perhaps 20 to 40 minutes (with half or more of that time being rest or low intensity activity), as compared to the 30 to 60 minutes of continuous activity as recommended for aerobic exercise. The question is, how do the two types of exercise compare in terms of their ability to promote stout burning?

The aerobic exercise promoters point to the research that was mentioned earlier that has shown that any exercise, no matter how intense requires at least 30 minutes to use up the body’s stored glycogen (the body will normally burn glycogen before it will burn stout) before stout burning can start. So, they say, small periods of even highly intense exercise won’t burn much stout and is therefore not a excellent choice for promoting weight loss. But they are only seeing part of the tale.

It is right that you must exercise for at least 30 minutes to start to achieve stout burning – but that’s at the time you are exercising. Brief bursts of intense anaerobic exercise does something that even quite a lot of low to medium intensity aerobic exercise does not. Intense anaerobic exercise stimulates the production of growth hormone, which is a strong stimulator of stout burning. The thing is, the release of growth hormone triggered by intense anaerobic exercise comes 24 to 48 hours AFTER the exercise, and then it produces considerably more stout burning than is possible with all but extremely long periods of low to medium intensity aerobic exercise.

Because of this effect, most people will lose weight much more easily by doing shorter periods of more intense exercise. 20 to 40 minutes of heavy weightlifting, interval training (which could be done on foot, on a bicycle, swimming, kickboxing, etc.Any kind of activity in which there are periodic bursts of intense exertion interspersed with rest periods, or periods of low intensity activity is typically preferable in the long run for weight control than even long hours of lower intensity aerobic exercise.

Now, you’ll notice that I said “most people”. There is an exception to the rule. People under considerable stress, either emotional or physical, or both, in their daily lives are prone to overworked adrenal glands. The adrenal glands do a lot of things in the body, but with regards to weight loss, they produce two hormones. One hormone is cortisol, which promotes stout deposition in the lower abdomen. This is typically a saggy, pendulous stout held below the waistline. The other hormone the adrenals produce is adrenaline (also called epinephrine), which really promotes stout burning. Since the adrenals produce cortisol which causes stout deposition and adrenaline which promotes stout burning, you might assume that these two hormones cancel each other out. Unfortunately, cortisol production can be carried out by a much longer time by the adrenal glands than can the production of adrenaline, so long-term, the effects of high cortisol production (deposition of stout in the lower belly), will overcome whatever stout burning might occur from the small-term adrenaline production.

The adrenals are influenced by physical stress as well as mental stress, so for someone who is under a lot of stress in general in his or her life, high-intensity exercise will only add to the total stress and will tend to make the adrenals produce a lot of cortisol, and therefore will tend to promote lower abdomen weight gain. Yes, you read that right – excessive exercise for someone under a lot of stress can really cause that person to deposit MORE stout around the lower belly! This can result in the frustrating situation in which one exercises more and more and harder and harder to try to get rid of that lower abdomen stomach “pooch”, but never can seem to get rid of it. Because the intense exercise is stimulating more cortisol production, that person is fighting a losing battle. Because of this effect, it is recommended that people under a lot of stress and/or who have most of their weight held in the lower abdomen stick to relatively low intensity aerobic exercise. This kind of activity is usually helpful for controlling stress and reducing the level of cortisol, thereby making it simpler to get rid of the deposition of stout around the lower abdomen.

I hope that this article has given you a better concept of how to maximize your exercise routine for the best possible weight loss results.

The Best Stomach Exercise Circuit For Your Best Abs Ever

Edit Article |

]]>

**A flat tummy can be yours if you regularly implement my stomach exercise circuit in your daily life**. In order to develop a nice set of abs, you have to implement two things regularly – the right diet and the right exercise plot. Both of those things are equally vital if you want to build lean abs. You have to focus on your diet as well as your exercise regime. You can’t just eat what you want, exercise your bum off and expect to get fantastic abs. The same goes for the reverse.

I will help you to get the exercise right to help you build spectacular abs. These are all the exercises you need to do to ensure that you get hot abs. Let’s have a look at the best stomach exercise you can do for a flat tummy now:

**The best stomach exercise circuit**

Do about 5-10 minutes of light cardio, like walking, as a warm-up, then do one weight training/stomach exercise with one minute of cardio (like below) in between. Repeat this circuit 1-3 times. You can start with only one repeat and work your way up as you get fitter.

#Cardio

As mentioned above, do one cardio exercise for 1 minute before switching over to one weight training or abs exercise. You can do the same cardio exercise, like stepping on a step or you can vary it and do stepping and jumping, for example.

**Some of the best cardio exercises you can do for your circuit are:**

* Skipping/jumping rope
* Jumping jacks
* Running up and down stairs
* Step-ups on a step
* Mountain climbers

#Abs exercises

Do one abs exercise for every one cardio and weight training exercise you have done. Exercising your abs this way is the best way to get flat chiseled abs in no time.

**Brilliant stomach exercise you can do to burn away tummy stout includes:**

* The plank
* Crunches
* The bicycle exercise

#Weight training exercises

Full body weight training exercises will boost your metabolism and help you burn more stout and calories. Do one weight training exercise for every cardio and abs exercise you have done. You may need some weights and a bench for these exercise. You can do them also with bags of sugar and an exercise ball.

Some of the best weight training stomach exercise to do include:

* **For your upper body – Upright row for your back, bicep curls, triceps extensions and shoulder presses.
* **For your lower body** – Squats, lunges and calf raises.

Just do this circuit 4-5 times a week and you will soon get the abs of your dreams. Just be persistent and never give up!

Option Expiration and Exercise

Edit Article |

Posted: Aug 13, 2010 |Comments: 0
|

]]>

Beginning options traders often make costly mistakes due to either a lack of knowledge or misinformation about the basic parameters of options and their exercise. Examples of common errors include being surprised that one is unable to close an index option position on the Friday before expiration, or being surprised by an unhedged option exercise during expiration. This article covers some of the basic concepts surrounding option expiration and how options are exercised. Be sure you know the settlement, exercise, and expiration characteristics of the options you trade.

Option Expiration

Equity options expire on the Saturday following the third Friday of each month. It is common to hear or read that equity options expire on that third Friday. While that isn’t technically right, it is right that Friday is the last opportunity to trade those options. Saturday expiration was established to give the brokerages time to settle the accounts before the options technically (legally) lose their value.

But, some (but not all) index options stop trading at the close on the Thursday prior to expiration and those positions are reconciled on Saturday based upon the settlement price established on Friday. For example, the SPX index options cannot be traded after the close on the Thursday before expiration; but the settlement price, usually reported as SET or $SET, is established Friday morning based on the opening price of each of the 500 S&P stocks. Since many stocks do not open immediately at the opening bell, the settlement price will differ from the SPX opening price on Friday.

Option Exercise

The owner of an equity option has the right to buy or sell 100 shares of the underlying stock anytime before expiration. If you are long the option (i.e., you originally bought it), you may or may not choose to exercise the option you own; it is entirely your choice. If you are small the option (i.e., you originally sold the option), it may be exercised against you at any time. Typically, you will receive an email from your broker after the market close, notifying you of the exercise. You may be exercised for only a part of your option position, e.g., only 2 of your 10 contracts. If you were small call options, you will now see a small stock position in your account, i.e., you were obligated to sell the stock at the strike price. If you were small place options, the exercise forces you to buy stock at the strike price, resulting in a long stock position in your account.

When options contracts are first made, exercise is specified in one of two different ways: American style or European style. American style options can be exercised on any business day prior to expiration, whereas European style options can only be exercised at expiration. All equity options are subject to exercise American style, while most index options are European style, e.g., the SPX. But there are some exceptions with a small number of index options settling American style, e.g., the OEX.

Upon expiration, your broker will automatically exercise any expiring options in your account that are .01 or more ITM (in the money) in accordance with Options Clearing Corporation regulations. If expiration is approaching and the stock price is near your strike price, and you do not want to hold either the long or small stock position that will result from the exercise of your long option, sell the option before the market closes on the Friday of expiration week. If you are holding a European style index option position and wish to close it before expiration, be sure to complete those orders before the market closes on Thursday before expiration. If you wish to exercise any of your long equity options, you must issue an order to your broker before the market closes on the Friday of expiration week. It is generally excellent practice to close option positions before expiration to avoid unpleasant surprises.

Option spread positions always have a small option position by definition, so they are subject to exercise at any time. But, the long option protects you in this situation, e.g., if I am holding a 10 contract spread and I receive a notice of exercise from my broker for 3 of the small options, I simply question my broker to exercise 3 of my long options to cover the exercise.

In practice, it is rare that your small option positions will be exercised against you before expiration. But, as noted above, your long option position protects you against this exercise. In general, place options are rarely exercised unless there is less than .10 of time value left in the option. The same is right of call options with one major exception: calls are often exercised just before a stock goes ex-dividend, e.g., if the call has .10 of time value remaining, but the dividend is .50 per share, it may be advantageous to the option owner to exercise the option and hold the stock through the ex-dividend date to collect the dividend payment. Sometimes an option will be exercised against you in a situation where it makes no sense whatsoever and is probably a mistake or due to inexperience of the person on the other side of the trade.

If you are holding a vertical spread position going into expiration, there are several different situations possible. If both of the options are fully in the money, your broker will automatically exercise both of the long and small options and credit your account with the spread amount less commissions. But, if the stock price closes expiration Friday within the spread, the situation is a small tough and the results may surprise you. For example, if we were holding a bull call spread, the small OTM call will expire worthless and the broker will exercise the long call on your behalf, resulting in shares of stock in your account the following Monday (and perhaps a call from your broker if your account does not have sufficient cash to buy the stock). If you do not want to buy the stock, you should close the spread before the market close on the Friday of expiration week.

Credit spreads can also result in surprises at expiration. For example, if I hold a bull place spread and the underlying stock closes Friday of expiration week at a price within the spread, my small place options will be exercised against me, resulting in a long stock position in my account. The long place option does not protect me because it expired worthless.

In general, if the stock price closes on expiration Friday within the strike prices of my vertical spread, it will result in either a long stock position or a small stock position in my account the following Monday. Unless you are willing to hold that stock position, it is usually best to close the spread on Friday. Many traders adopt a general rule of closing all option positions the week before expiration to avoid the surprises that are all too common the week of expiration.

Exercise Bikes Vs. Treadmills

]]>

You’ve chose you want to exercise at home.  There are hundreds of pieces of home cardio equipment available.  The most well loved are treadmills and exercise bikes.  In deciding between the two, you should compare long-term sustainability, the effectiveness of the workouts, and safety.

Overcoming Boredom

The largest obstacle to a home exercise routine is sticking with it.  You don’t have to drive to a gym, so your home fitness equipment is more convenient.  The problem is that other distractions are just as convenient at home.  The key is to make your routine fun.  You want to look forward to your daily workout.  You have to be realistic.  Playing with the heart rate monitor or watching the calorie counter go up will only be fun the first couple of times you exercise.

Treadmill vs. Boredom

On a treadmill, you walk.  Walking isn’t that fun.  You can walk at different speeds, but that isn’t really much more fun.  If you get a treadmill that offers an incline, that keeps it a bit more fascinating.  Walking uphill isn’t exactly fun, but it’s different.  It presents a challenge.

You can’t really read on a treadmill because you are bouncing up and down.  You can’t keep your eyes on the same sentence, and you usually end up with a headache.  Basically, the only thing fun to do on a treadmill is watch television or movies.  If you are really into TV or movies and are able to place your treadmill in front of a television, you can probably keep your treadmill workout from becoming too dull.  Problems consist of commercials, the noise coming from the machine, and again, the bouncing.

Exercise Bikes vs. Boredom

Exercise bikes are unique in that many of them come programmed with various biking routines.  You simulate different courses that require you to sprint, pedal uphill, and perform at different levels within one workout without having to keep pressing buttons and changing everything.  You can even select random programs so you don’t know what’s coming, which really keeps you on your toes.  Some exercise bikes can even be plugged into televisions and video games to let you interactively pedal through visual courses.

On upright exercise bikes, you run into some of the same problems as treadmills as far as reading is concerned.  Recumbent bikes, but, allow your hands to be free to hold a book or magazine, video game controller, or phone.  Multi-tasking during an exercise bike workout keeps it from becoming dull and allows your workout to more easily fit into a busy schedule.

Defeating boredom to successfully keep up a long-term exercise routine is much simpler with an exercise bike than a treadmill.

The Calorie Factor

In a study conducted by Nordic Track, young, healthy people used various exercise machines and did cardio workouts.  Although they felt they used the same intensity on all machines, they burned the most calories on treadmills and ski machines.

On average, most people burn about 750 calories per hour on a treadmill.  The same people are likely to burn about 550 calories per hour on an exercise bike.  So it’s a no-brainer, right?  You should get a treadmill because they burn more calories.

Well, not exactly.  You can’t get so caught up in which machine burns the most calories.  You have to take a lot of other factors into consideration.  How likely are you to sustain a treadmill routine as opposed to an exercise bike routine?

Because exercise bikes are usually more fun than treadmills, you are much more likely to stick with it long-term.  This means that even though you can burn more calories on a treadmill, you are also more likely to stop using it altogether.

You might also find it hard to use it long enough per workout session to get the full benefits.  Most people find it simpler to workout for 20 minutes on an exercise bike than 20 minutes on a treadmill.  You have to reckon about that.  If you are likely to only do 10 minutes on a treadmill but can easily do 20 minutes on an exercise bike, you will burn more calories per session on an exercise bike.

So just going strictly by the numbers, treadmills burn more calories.  If you easily get bored or have tried and failed to stick with exercise routines in the past, you might want to consider burning less calories per hour in favor of a sustainable long-term exercise bike regimen.

Your Safety

The largest difference between exercise bikes and treadmills is overall safety to your body.

The first case of safety is the most basic.  You can fall off of a treadmill.  It’s very hard, but, to fall off of an exercise bike.  In fact, you would probably have to try to fall when riding an exercise bike.  While you might be thinking you’d have to be pretty clumsy to fall while walking, it happens more than you’d reckon.  People get involved with watching television or the beat of music.  One incorrect step and you can seriously injure yourself.  It’s also possible to spill water or sweat on the treadmill track, causing a safety hazard you might not notice until after you’ve slipped.

Another safety hazard is injury from the activity itself.  A treadmill puts quite a bit of stress on your joints, especially your knees and ankles.  Even if you invest in a treadmill with some degree of shock absorption, when you eventually get to a jogging or running point, you can place severe orthopedic stress on your body, even up to three times your body weight.  People with existing conditions such as arthritis will find a treadmill painful at times due to this stress.  Otherwise healthy individuals can sustain injury and possible long-term hurt over time.

Exercise bikes place much less stress on your joints.  A properly positioned exercise bike supports your weight and still allows you to receive the benefits of a higher impact cardio workout.  Upright bikes can sometimes stress your back in the way you have to bend to reach the handlebars.  Recumbent exercise bikes, but, can really improve existing back pain by forcing proper posture and giving support as you exercise.  On any exercise bike properly used, your knees and ankles are not stressed as they are on a treadmill.

The less you stress joints, the less likely you are to sustain an injury during your workout.  You are also less likely to be sore afterwards.  Most importantly, a non-workout injury doesn’t always have to halt your exercise routine on an exercise bike.  If you hurt your back or neck, you will find the support of a recumbent exercise bike will keep you from having to stop your exercise regimen altogether.  Let’s face it – if you have to stop, you are less likely to start again.

An Exercise Bike is Better for Your Health than a Treadmill

As you can see, both pieces of home fitness equipment have advantages.  While the treadmill continues to be the most well loved piece of home gym equipment, most people are more likely to faithfully use an exercise bike.  This means you’re more likely to have to dust a treadmill until it gets the garage sale sticker.
