Fitness advice: before you start that workout program



A few months ago, I was excitedly telling my brother about my workout routine when he asked if I had seen the doctor. My facial expression must have said a lot to him because he quickly rephrased his question, asking me if I visited the doctor before starting out my routine. He then went on to relate how his friend had slumped and died while jogging. It was said that he had an undetected health problem which was aggravated by intense workout.

Motivation: I'm a workout freak!- A must read

                           
Working out is one thing I look forward to each day. It's like eating, bathing or any other regular activity. In my final year in school, many people recognized me as the girl who always goes to the gym; Some arguing that I had been moved to the department of Human Kinetics, while a few who knew me well thought I had just gotten a new hobby and would soon tire out. I'm still on this never ending fitness journey and I'm loving it!

My major motivation are the challenges I face(d, strange though, but true. When I was on holidays, I'd have to wake up by 5:30am to go jogging when everyone is trying to readjust their blankets to shield the themselves from the extremely cold weather of Jos.

Dance workout video: Day 4 of our Fit Africa challenge!


Say hello to a fun way to workout, lose weight and stay fit! If you're tired of doing the same routines everyday, this could be a Messaih to your situation.

I originally set out to dance to one of my favourite song "Bonfire heart" by James Blunt, then I decided to throw in few exercises and the result is what we have here. This wasn't properly choreographed because like I said earlier, I didn't set out to make a dance workout video, but I explained the exercises with short texts on screen.

Top fitness trends for 2015: You won't believe what the number 1 trend is!


Last year, high-intensity interval training was the most favored fitness trend across the world, but this year it has lost its place to bodyweight training, my favourite trend.
Bodyweight training is top on the list of fitness trends this year because the exercises involved require no workout equipment. They can be done anywhere and this makes it a great pick for everyone keen on fitness. Let's checkout all the top trends for 2015!

1. Bodyweight training: Bodyweight training is my favourite workout regime for the same reasons it made number 1 trend this year. It is an economical and time-saving option because the moves can be done anywhere. It is also highly effective. Think about it, you can squat while you comb your hair (I do static squats for 1-5 minutes while watching TV). Plank while you're waiting for a quick meal to cook? Sure! Bodyweight exercises can transform your entire body, whether you're looking to lose weight or stay fit, all you need is the right information and we're right here to give you all the information you'll ever need.
