Getting Started with Fitness
Introduction
So you’re ready to get fit, but never seen the inside of a gym?
No worries, A.C.E. Certified Personal Trainer, Shelley Celano, will walk you through your first fitness program…
Shelley: “Fitness is achieved with a combination of a cardio and weight resistance training program. Set your personal goal at reaching the best level of fitness you can be for your own body, shape, and size.”
“If you’ve never worked out before, you need to understand that the body responds to challenges from a safe and effective workout.”
“It’s a great investment to hire a personal trainer, even if it’s only for 4-8 sessions, to help you learn proper form and technique, and to design a personalized fitness program for you.”
“Some of the benefits you’ll see from getting fit are confidence, strength and stress relief.”
Important tips:
- Be sure your basic health is good before starting your fitness program and get a medical clearance from your doctor.
- Understand that nutrition plays a key role in your success. Fitness is a whole package.
- Good form prevents injury… so be strict!
- Don’t overwhelm yourself! Start out in a conservative manner and give yourself 3 months to become accustom to working out.
- Drink plenty of water and expect to feel sore… feeling sore means muscle is changing and the soreness is actually a good thing!
Shelley is married with two children ages 14 and 10. She's been training at World Gym in Burbank, California for the last 8 years and became a personal trainer two years ago.
