Myths about the sun

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

sun bathingIt is time the sun and so many people take to the streets to be long sunbathing to get a perfect tan. Viton are constantly stressing the importance of sun exposure safe way to avoid problems. Despite all the advice we have given over and over again there are still many myths surrounding this act which almost all did in those months, and therefore we want to highlight.

One of the main myths is the one that says that when the day is cloudy or there is fog do not burn. This is totally false, because the clouds are not in any rations filter radiation from the sun, so protect ourselves these days like the rest with a high factor. Around the cream factor there are many fallacies, and yet some people think that if they use a lower factor tan more. This is false, as the factor which makes is to protect against radiation and prevent deterioration of the skin, under no circumstances will prevent us to get dark, and we’ll do likewise.

A widespread belief is that using suntan oil is best for ourselves brown. Generally this type of compound does not contain any sun protection, and all they do is act as a magnifying glass from the sun, further increasing its power and making are more likely to burn and be damaged. The same is true when applied sunscreen, which is that some people think that to do it once served. It is by no means certain, since we must go further quantities of cream applied every now split avoid losing its protective power.

An exercise to work the legs when we are resentful knee

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

the legsThe knee is a delicate part of the body, because it holds the most tension throughout the day, as are those that support our entire weight. It is important that your knees always bear in mind when exercising, as it can go badly affected. Despite this, many times we often feel trouble of overloading in this part. When this happens we do is to stop training legs. To prevent this from happening we will show an exercise that respects the knee.

The squat exercise is a classic if there ever was when working legs, but can be very damaging if we speak of the knee, if we do not care when doing so. It is important to know that not only the squat is what we must do to work the leg, as this rule of thumb many people with chronic knee injuries can not do leg exercises anymore. For them, we propose an alternative.

To perform this exercise we have to do is equip with two dumbbells to hold them as a dead weight on both sides of our body. The form will grab them with your palms inward so arms are only a subject, never the way to raise the burden of these dumbbells. This position will make a simple movement which is what will allow us to train the legs without forcing the knee.

Doing sit-ups in two days to improve performance

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

For the summer we all want to look enviable figure with a waist fat-free and fully toned. This often costs a lot to get us. Viton and we know the maximum memory that are three, diet, aerobic exercise and abdominal. So we’ll stop in the third, abdominal work, which most of us do not give it the importance and we do mean and ill because of lack of time. To avoid this we are going to propose to divide the work abdominal muscles abdominal areas.

The abdominal wall is one of the most powerful muscle groups and large body, which presents several areas, the bottom half, the upper and obliques. All these areas should be tackled with the same impact to allow an appropriate balance in the abdominals. Many people only do one type of exercise to be more operational and faster in training. A very common bug that will not help us develop the abdomen as it should.

Viton what we propose is designed exercises to work every area in itself and more focused on it, but to meet the needs of each user should better be divided into two days so as to leave no party without work and to do so profound and effective. To begin, we must be clear that we must be consistent when two days working on the muscles of the abdomen. If we do this so we fall into the same error as always and worked only part of the abs to the detriment of others.

The way to separate the exercises will be done the first day, those affecting the lower abdomen and midsection. On the second day that we will train the upper abdomen and obliques. This way of working will allow us to perform more than an exercise area, thereby improving the degree of intensity and mobility of this part of the body, which will translate into more muscle strength and definition in this part, besides being a great help us in planning our time in training routines. This way to train abs take us very little time and help us train them properly.

Similarities and differences between athletes and players

Sunday, June 20th, 2010

More and more fans to the game and although such people do not seem have anything in common with sport partners, a recent study allows us to discover the similarities and differences between athletes and players.

Assessing the psychological skills and physical fitness and the health of players and athletes, no one expected to find something in common between these two groups of people who seem so different, but to the surprise of many gamers have much in common with the athletes, although it’s not just their health or physical fitness, as we suppose.

The reaction rate, the ability to regulate anxiety and mental skills of gamers were very similar to those of the great athletes, therefore, here we find a great similarity to visual and mental agility that allows them to reflexes to certain circumstances.

However, in my view, the differences between players and athletes outweigh the similarities, because although we all know that gamers are not as physical fitness of athletes, their health was much worse than expected , as in the case of a player of 20 years, their aerobic capacity was similar to that of a 60-year-old, sedentary smoker.

To the surprise of all, gamers have a very low level of fitness, so, despite the advantages to the mental abilities that have the players, it’s best to limit the hours they spend sitting in front of a screen just moving your fingers to incorporate a little more to the world of motion.

You agree with me that this outweighs the low fitness and alarming that the best mental skills, therefore, for those who believed that playing games was not as bad for your health, this study will have to rethink the concept.

Train triceps extension arm dumbbell vertical

Thursday, June 17th, 2010

To look strong and wide arms, triceps training is essential and the exercises we can do to work this muscle is the vertical extension of the arms with dumbbells, alternatively primarily seeking long head of triceps.

For its realization we can place standing or sitting, but we must bear in mind that we should mobilize all the forearm by elbow flexion, but this should not be opened to the sides but must remain as close as possible and head stable during movement also must not exceed 90 degrees in flexion.

Since the extension of the arms with dumbbells can stretch the long head of triceps, then encourages them to contract during labor.

In addition to the position, it is important to know that the exercise starts behind the neck and extending the elbow should inspire, while the inspiration of air is made to initiate the movement behind the head.

Of course, we must be cautious in choosing the weight to work, because overloading force us to tilt the body to the opposite side of the arm that works and so can damage the spine.

Triceps training is of great importance for the full development of the arms and this year we can run it at home, as in the gym, getting very good results.
