Exercise and Massage – Goal 2 Tip to Follow

In the Anvanca weight loss system, we know how hard it is to lose weight.  That’s why our process comes in three stages: risk reduction stage, healthier weight stage, and the ideal weight stage.  The process and program changes as you hit each goal.

Once you are approaching your healthier weight, we can start to add in more structured exercise.  Components of a structured exercise program are strength training & cardiovascular exercise.

Strength training is an essential part of a fitness program. It raises your metabolism, strengthens muscles and connective tissue, increases flexibility, improves immune system function, improves reaction time and balance, and increases bone density.  You should consult your physician before beginning any structured exercise.

Strength training consists of flexing muscles against some type of resistance.  Sometimes that can be body weight (like pushups or situps), other times an external resistance will be required (like using weights or exercise tubing for resistance).

Cardio exercise is aerobic exercise that involves a repetitive motion repeated for long periods of time – jogging, cycling, swimming, jumping rope, etc. Aerobic exercise conditions the heart and lungs, and it is an effective way to burn extra calories and prevent vascular disease.  We also recommend adding in post-workout massages, which have been shown to cut down inflammation and pain.  The benefits of massage are useful to a broad swath of people.   Massage therapy can help remove toxins and help your body recover faster.
