The Healthy Gamer: Exercise - Living With a Nerd
Gaming is a hobby that can require a large time investment. So how is a gamer supposed to stay in shape? With this first entry in our Healthy Gamer series, we explore ways to stay fit while continuing to game as much as you always have. Stationary Bike I am no longer able to lift weights due to multiple injuries sustained over the years (navicular fractures in my wrists, L2-L3 vertebrae fusion, knee problems, and more!) As for recommendations on recumbent bikes, I myself have a Scwinn Active Series 20. Pushups Pushups are a load bearing pillar of any exercise regimen. If you want some great tips on how to change up your routine and raise your pushup number quickly (and safely), I highly recommend hundredpushups.com. “Active Gaming” While things like Wii Fit and EA Sports Active are exercise-oriented, I find that they are bit too dull to be effective for regular use. 1share 0share
Näin aloitat juoksuharrastuksen | Kunto
Urheilulajeista juoksu ei ole aina se houkuttelevin: monille juoksu on raskas laji, jota ei ole helppo aloittaa. Salaisuutena kasvaneeseen juoksuinnostukseen on lisääntynyt kiinnostus omaan kuntoon ja kokonaisvaltaiseen hyvinvointiin. - Juoksu sopii kaikenikäisille oikein annosteltuna ja oikein aloitettuna. Juoksukouluista moni saa turvallisen aloituksen harrastukselle. Osa jatkaa juoksua pääharrastuksenaan ja osa satunnaisemmin muun liikuntaharrastuksen kuten ryhmäliikunnan lisäksi, kertoo liikuntapalveluvastaava ja personal trainer Tiina Kovalainen Lady Line Porvoosta.

Juoksutreeniin saa helposti vaihtelua vaihtamalla reittiä ja maisemaa. Mikä on juoksukoulu?
