3 night life are also on your list. how about here today i want to discover give them with surprise. do you want a little more? take you 60 minutes on d w. so you want to know what makes with love via and batting thing, stuff away from the fun. i'm not even know how to work my own car and everyone with later holes and everything today. just getting, are you ready to meet the german can join me, right. just do it on d. w. i did, you know, regular exercise is good for your mind and soul as well as your body. studies show that physical activity can help road off depression o e at symptoms exercise helps keep all brains fish and promotes cognitive function

at any age. whether you are in your sports gear or not, enjoy the action on in good shape. let's kick off with a fitness test. to day christiane chris and tatyana are measuring how fit they are under the guidance of sports scientist and trainer michelle schmidt. so this test can be done at home. all you need is a venture chair, a stopwatch pen and paper, a measuring stick, a 30 centimeter high step, and 15 to 20 minutes of time. there are 5 exercises to do 1st up aerobic endurance. when i move them to be able to measure your aerobic endurance, you 1st need to find and check resting. pulse also

important a little warm up. and now the exercise walked briskly up and down a 30 centimeter high step for 3 minutes. a simple but important movement in everyday life. last 10 seconds. then they measure their active heart rate and a minute later the recovery heart rate. we notice you've been moving. yeah, yeah, but it's good. aerobic endurance is calculated as the sum of resting active and recovery heart rates minus 200 divided by 10. the result there's room for improvement. next comes exercise to flexibility. den on stand with your legs together, knees straight. technically i'll try to touch your toes with your fingertips before come as close as you can would end is near to come. this done should tie his shoes

this way, more often, as i said, i leim centimeter does this so much. it's a simple way to significantly improve flexibility in both the hamstrings and the lower back all it is to for them. but now it's time to take their shoes off for exercise 3 balance. things could get a little wobbly. one foot is raised just above ankle, height, arms crossed over the chest. the clock stops when the raised foot touches the ground again, or 45 seconds or up. or for a specific why it's important, especially when you're running or jumping. it's a good predictor of how stable you're glad or how much you might hurt yourself during a movement in venice on the vehicle also exercise for strength. she gets swarmed here. the idea is to go from a sitting position to a standing one repeatedly just once or by a bit jaw. he might most of us manage once, that will do it for 60 seconds and then count the ramp me for that is how me

repetition. as you can do correctly in one minute, also feel here, lank strength is needed. that's why come those 2 extra grams on my belly. i noticed them by all 3 are out of breath, despite their different daily activity levels. bahamas by and i and the measurements show that all 3 have average endurance levels in the area of the lower limbs. but that's something that can be significantly improved through targeted training. divers, like focusing on powerfully standing up from a chair is often from a store and deliberately lowering yourself back down a bit more slowly and him that the advice to have a greater impact on your muscular system. this hall figure of mine was closest. him huddled and now the final stage exercise 5 muscle endurance. get into position and try to bend your legs. i was,

they should be relaxed. doing classic set ups for one minute was, indicates the strength, endurance of the trunk muscle to make sure to keep your lower back on the ground and not pull with your neck. 20 seconds. it will the results of average for the men good for tatyana. this test can be used for self evaluation and development and should be repeated under the same conditions after 4 weeks until then try walking upstairs a bit faster level standing out from the chair a little more vigorously or getting in and out of bed differently. but who tried entire shoes like i mentioned standing oven angus, where just move your body downwards. have been, these are little things you can do. and then with such a test, you can easily see what can change as a result of them. and uncle. so expectations versus results. how much room for improvement to these 3 c?

still, they all had fun moving their bodies to day. oh good. a balanced diet is also important for keeping fetch. because only when we consume a good mix of macro nutrients to our bodies, half the optimal fuel, along with carbohydrates and fats. proteins are especially important that the building blocks, the muscle and tissue. they make a cell phone and support your immune system. proteins are found in meat, for example, that derek is alternative. so this is t. you are the best sources of protein for athletes who don't want to eat meat. eggs, eggs are great for athletes because they contain all the amino acids, the body, and especially the muscles need. the recommendation for a healthy person is about 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day . summer, new ways 70 kilos would need 56 grams. but athletes who lift weights on

a regular basis need more. the daily recommendations range between 1.2 and 2 grams per kilo of body weight. so a person wing 70 kilos needs about 100 grams in one study participants who follow these guidelines and gained 1.3 kilos of muscle mass in 10 weeks. after that more protein didn't improve the results. and egg has an average of 6 grams of protein, and most of that is in the yoke, not the egg white. so you would have to eat 16 eggs to cover your daily requirement . that's way too much more than 3 exit day isn't healthy. that's why you need other sources of protein do like quark, a low fat cur, jeez. 100 grams of low fat quark contains about 14 grams of protein. our athlete would therefore need to eat 700 grams to cover the daily requirement. low

fat cork also contains a lot of calcium important for bones plus zing to protect the immune system, which is under heavy stress in athletes, and sodium, which sweats out during exercise. another advantage low fat quark has very few calories. and then there are legumes. legumes aren't excellent alternative to meet kidney beans have 27 grams of protein per 100 grams. dried peas about 30 grams. the front runners are soybeans which contain about 40 grams of protein. legumes are also rich and minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and iron, which are needed for energy metabolism. so our athlete would be 250 grams of soybeans per day, because so it contains estrogen like substances. it's been suspected of promoting breast cancer in women, but several studies found no statistically significant association,

while others reported a reduced breast cancer risk for women in the highest soil intake groups. another suspicion is that men's bodies feminized, when they enjoy an evaluation of several studies, showed no noted effects of so i so flavin on testosterone or estrogen levels in men . these estimates apply to normal consumption quantities and athletes don't just need proteins. so our top 3 are only beneficial as part of a balance diet. how can you get and stay fit on social media and elsewhere? everyone seems to be offering advice. how to tell fact, from fiction. when it comes to fulton fitness smith's abound to make sure you die full for half traits. we consulted some true expert. these folks really know that stuff.

a sports scientist, a personal trainer and a doctor, you've made fitness, their profession myth won many workouts on. that's effective either working out doesn't take as much time as you think. that's a real misconception. glover wouldn't, as is or, and routine. it's simply a myth to believe that anything under an hour and a half or under an hour is pointless. yoga kenyon, there's hit training or high intensity training, which can have a huge effect in just half an hour or more, or maybe even 20 minutes, newton and even if heck, recon vast and, and ceiling and what's your ultimate goal? when talking about short sessions and gets him ashby court if it's about improving coordination, courtside short sessions can be really good and tie because you're mentally precious and learn much better and, and your cognition much better fit from going on get when it comes to burning fat. when the goal is to create a calorie deficit at a site, that means i want to burn more calories than

a consume. and it can also burn calories with short sessions and heighten and colleen forbidden. so not having the time is no longer an excuse. myth t sore muscles. mean you had a good walk out as is some routine. it's a myth to believe that only people with aching muscles really trained or built up muscle effectively. you can totally train has are getting sore muscles. klingon order was but people who are just starting out i should have sore muscles at times void so they get a good feel for the areas of their bodies who has jackline m equal for let. so your muscles suffer micro trauma and cool little microscopic tears when you have muscle pain, as again, as they say, it'll destroy, to build my mask, he destroy something to better it. so new structures, conformational twin debated mankind who considers home sore muscles are a sure sign where you're building up myself. on the other hand, i'm just because your muscles don't age doesn't mean your training wasn't effective . absolutely not. i got some damage. and by the way,

motorists exercised like cycling or stretching ease is aching muscles it vsl circulation, which helps muscles regenerate mit. 3 joking is the best activity for white locks. the best ish bought and good address, bored to lose weight isn't jogging. it's the one that you have the most fun doing, and it would pretty good talking also hot and joins of finding. especially folks who want to lose weight are often too heavy for their joints. feel and find that hard to take lessons that would out thus job. they have jogging, or strong endurance training in general is best for losing weight. might by definition be going in the right direction. unity because if someone is just looking to lose weight and give them a sports, that's very intensive and burns lots of calories is just the chicken when not really. yes, ma visitation, i'm cuffed cleaning. is this uh, with strength training. it's about building up more muscle mass song and growth and a larger, more powerful muscle needs more calories on. and so, um, in that sense, strength training might bring more lasting benefits than cardio training guides.

collier planning other dick up a hot alit, in agi behind to let the bodies energy supply systems all operated the same time as actually might almost say that a hybrid form, like cross fit is really good. robertson, by spirit and scooters and his strength, endurance, speech, flexibility, and coordination are all trained but few and does she many different aspects which are produce a calorie deficit is and cuddle. india fits it, hashed it in summary. i just wish i never say a short work doesn't work because it always depends on your go up. in his fancy as assisted to log van mosca caught a hot, hot, effective senate about us and would a for those float. ah, the defends is knocked him. many folks jump on the scales right after cardio training and go, hey, i've lost 2 kilos. but honestly what you've lost is water. and that's what you see in the scale to see in gulf. of course, that's great and boost motivation, but the fact exercise makes us happy. so don't let fit the smiths spoil your fun.

when it's hot till where exerting ourselves, we sweat. it's all body's own climate controlled. it cools us down. sweat is almost entirely composed of water, but it also contains electrolytes, essential minerals like chloride, potassium and sodium. so when we perspire knowledge, we need to replenish with more than just water. that's exactly how much sold to we lose through scratch. zara and maxine are our test subjects to day ready to work up a sweat i'm sweating well to day nice and warm to day to ideal. i feel really sticky already. spots scientists popular null time is studying how much salt they sweat out while exercising. and in a sauna we're trying to ensure that as few drops of sweat as possible,

dripped down onto the floor, we want to collect all the participants sweat on our porch. she can do that well on her front, but she can't reach her back while she cycling of one of those, as you can see of the towel is getting much heavier. that indicates she's sweating quite well. and we're also managing to collect it on his sweating a lot. main. you're in bad shape that often with what some people claim that unathletic people sweat more, but it's not true at all and also of actually well trained athletes. wetmore, you can imagine the sweat glands, a small tubes and their value increases with us. in other words, the sweat glands also become somewhat larger, anatomically and can produce more sweat, persuade. glad to post a little boy, keep going. i'll meet you at the finish line. i did all of that up, give me some skin i minute time from all those up on the left to the door.

you should have done this from the start of that would have been exercise to one and to slow down. how much so did she sweat? out, 1st of all, i don't even know how much you normally and just by and guessing about 3 or 4 grams, i really have no idea on to the scales and, and was any change the, you know, 59 kilos and 900 grand one of them sarah released point 8 late is of sweat during one hour of exercise. the sweat is washed off her body with distilled water to measure just how much salt is in her school. it's closed and towel also go into the tub. now oldest way is in the bath water paddler naulty takes a sample for the lab. now it's max seems 10 to get sweating commission

. i better not do any worse than sarah for 321 and slow down law. while turned down the resistance of it. what do you think, how much water if you lost me under half a lita, 3 to 400 milliliters, maybe and how much salt i'd say in grams. maybe 20 milligrams or so many kilometers. will you $74.00 or the regular over kilo. wow. i wouldn't have thought that to morrow and analysis will show how much salt has ended up in maxine bathwater. but before then, one more test do we sweat differently in a saw mat compared to during exercise? so 20 minutes of santa o close gives

at match him pressure of 90 degrees celsius. sweating begins after just a few minutes. we'll go with similar to exercise. there is also a training effect in the sauna people who saw on a frequently sweat mong, do they also lose more salt? 20 minutes if the cut off point, but for a fair comparison, the results are extrapolated to an hour calculation. to an hour. we have a short loss of 1350 milliliters for sarah, and 1950 for maxine law. so almost 2 leaders as i said before, so i included 1.15 leaders earlier more. and now $1.00 leaders an hour alone. that's a way more in the sauna, but it honestly also felt like that. i even thought it might be even more, since we sweat so much in the sound on along it. i also find the off to sweating this really intense. now it wasn't like that during exercise. at least i didn't

think so before they went any neither. enough of this sweating, sarah maxime are about to find out how much salt bags crated invites test. on the sunday, you excited to vegas? very and you go yeah, totally. let's say that and i was out of these, i've brought you the amounts of salt that you lost maxime during exercise. it was 1.4 grams of salt, and in the sauna 1.8 grams, and sco markham, well, i wouldn't have thought that it. uh huh. once other by dis arrow for you, that it was one grammar, sana and 1 point one, grams during exercise by the bluff. so i'd sca mine's gum at the did you expect that for you? no, i would have thought it was much less definitely under a gram i had it is about if it's so much like with maxime now that has gone to the mo, it's normal, but we lose salt when we sweat and we can usually compensate for it with our diet, it's only a problem when we exert ourselves for a long time, like several hours or an extreme heat and exclaim, i had. so they said, my thing was right, that i lost more sweat in

a sauna than i did during exercise than others as well. exactly. you sweat more in the sauna, but the sweat is less salty than when you're exercising on the bike. a lot of say i was by their beloved though the o hm. 5 good motto. health. interesting. i thought you always with the same the same. i swear to sweat. did you know that? no, no, no, i didn't know there were differences if you also don't know to said that i didn't have the feeling that my sweat was more salty doing exercise than in the sauna. i'm of import martinez than ivona. but when you, each after exercising, don't assume you need to heap on the salt. a loss of salt and other minerals can be found in whole grains, leggings and nuts. they supply the body with a sufficient amount. only those who do not have insurance, thoughts need additional sokop back teaching a. there's a link between the salt we sweat out and muscle cramps and it's not just athletes who are affected or when the weather turns hot. many people start searching the

internet for the term muscle cramps more. often. there seems to be a connection, but not only there with that while a vice, when the dust, we now know that muscle spasm so strongly related to what is happening in our nervous system. it seems that nerves and the spinal cord are particularly over sensitive, and that probably can cause muscle spasms to develop a hot food entity from us. we come from. this explains why people with chronic back pain caused by a herniated disk or constriction in the spinal canal. are more likely to suffer from leg cramps it, disrupts in the interaction of nerves and muscles. stimulus transmissions take place at the ends of the motor nerves. nerve impulses lead to muscle contractions. if a nerve fires uncontrollably, the muscles become over stimulated, or the muscles develop a hyper sensitive reaction to normal stimuli. both

lead to spasms. then you might understand why someone frequently suffers from severe muscle cramps is voted in. it should be investigated . and i can cohen many diseases cause muscle cramps and which can then be caught in timer, said he, i can't read and couldn't. and then you can treat the cause commonalty to it was a 100. the standard recommendation for cramps is magnesium, but it doesn't help every one. what else can be done? it can hurt helpless stretching before going to bed. if he want to prevent crabs in especially the calf muscles, human got it through passive stretching and working the muscles that you can reduce the tendency to cramp at night. be comfortable with the knots from windham at university hospital getting in. don't, jess, nick is researching the causes of frequent muscle cramps. he measures how the nerves affect the muscles and actually finds nerve damage in this patient. this

compton was the only case that their nurse stimulation is exaggerated. so here, in this case, it's likely the result of an accident. frequently though the tests can't detect a specific cause, when enough and i would, i think we call it benign muscle spasm syndrome because we can detect any nerve damage with our diagnostic sick. gnostic is this that often and why we're only able to alleviate symptom this long rather than bring or to a completeness dog and tongue treatments for muscle cramps often don't help enough . it's a frequent issue for athletes, especially in high performance sports. and it can decide a tournament. sports scientist, michelle billing it is researching a new treatment. a type of desensitization researchers trigger cramps with electrical impulses in order to prevent them later. i think what we found with this particular form of muscle stimulation was that we could significantly

increase the spasm threshold in healthy individuals and not just in the short term, but over a long period on in follow up to studies. we were able to show that this has positive effects on patients, meaning we could reduce the frequency of spontaneously occurring cramps well this wounds 1st, the individual spasm threshold is measured. the person thought, so you the pace then the researchers trigger cramps in the muscles. battling spasms with more spasms the skin. jasmine paradox at 1st. that sounds paradoxical. but we need to keep in mind that patients who are plagued by seizures and wake up many times a night would rather have a controlled seizure during the day. if it means sleep on through the night, i feel bad enough to wish of electro therapy is still in the research phase. so for now stretching magnesium, and in some cases, medication can help provide relief for cramp sufferers. and there's

no cramping the style of our fitness coach al radia. she is back with a new exercise. hi and welcome to day we do a lovely exercise which you can do in your daily life. for example, when you're on your way to the grocery shopping. when you pick up your children from the school, or when you want to meet your friends just everywhere, it just need nothing else than yourself and your space around to. so i found this wonderful place where we do that did. you can take something like this or you can take a bench stairs or just something where you can put your heads on. bring your hands next to your hip, and then bring you but slightly in front. and then we moved down.
