Types of Body Conditioning

Exercises
and their Benefits
What Are body conditioning exercises?

Body conditioning exercises develop, shape,


and tone the entire body by utilizing a
variety of muscles. They might mix and
match several sorts of exercises, such as
flexibility, strength, and resistance training.
TYPES of body conditioning
exercises
1. Warmup Exercises
2. Strength Training
3. Aerobics Exercises
4. Flexibility Exercises
5. Stretching Exercises
6. Circuit Training
7. Cooldown Exercises
Warmup
Exercises
Warmup exercises help our body
to get ready for the activity a
person is about to perform. These
are short activities undertaken
prior to a more extensive exercise
or activity.
Benefits of warmups
1. Increased flexibility. Being more flexible can make it easier to move and exercise
correctly.
2. Lower risk of injury. Warming up your muscles can help them relax which, in
turn, can lead to less injury.
3. Increased blood flow and oxygen. Having more blood flow helps your muscles get
the nourishment they need before launching into more intense work.

4. Improved performance. Having a good warm up helps your body to have a


better range of motion which make you able to perform well.
5. Less muscle tension and pain. Muscles that are warm and relaxed may help
you move more easily and with less pain or stiffness.
EXAMPLES OF WARMUP EXERCISES

Jumping
squats Butt kicks
jacks

Arm circles lunges


strength
training
Strength training, often known as
resistance training, entails performing
physical activities to increase strength
and endurance. It is frequently related
with weightlifting. It can also include
calisthenics, isometrics, and
plyometrics, among other training
methods.
strength
training
Training commonly uses the technique of progressively increasing the force
output of the muscle through incremental weight increases and uses a variety
of exercises and types of equipment to target specific muscle groups.
Strength training is primarily an anaerobic activity, although some
proponents have adapted it to provide the benefits of aerobic exercise
through circuit training.
Types of strength training
1. Strength Training for Muscle Power. This technique aims to improve the muscles’
explosive power.
2. Strength Training for Muscle Strength. This type of training is designed to
achieve maximum strength and size i.e., the ability to lift or push heavy weights.
3. Strength Training for Muscle Hypertrophy. This technique is especially useful
for weight loss, helping to achieve a toned look and increasing the amount of lean
muscle in the body.

4. Strength Training for Muscular Endurance. This type engages your ‘slow-
twitch muscles fibers’, allowing you to keep performing a movement, such as
rowing, for a prolonged period.
Benefits of strength training
1. Increased lean muscle mass (or prevention of its loss).
2. Increased bone density and reduced risk of osteoporosis.
3. Increased metabolism to help with weight loss or weight maintenance.
4. Increased muscle strength to make everyday activities easier.
5. Lowered risk of injury (by allowing the muscles to better support the joints).
6. Increased physical attractiveness.

7. Increased general physical health.


8. Cardiovascular system and metabolism
9. Increased sports performance.
EXAMPLES OF strength training

Weight-lifting Sit-ups crunches

planks cycling
aerobic
Exercises
Cardiovascular conditioning is
achieved through aerobic exercise. The
term "aerobic" literally means "with
oxygen," which means that breathing
regulates the amount of oxygen that
reaches the muscles to aid in their
ability to burn fuel and move.
aerobic
Exercises
Before beginning an exercise regimen, it is suggested that you consult with
your doctor. Inquire about any limits you may have. People with diabetes,
hypertension, heart disease, arthritis, lung issues, or other health problems
may require special exercise safety precautions.
Benefits of aerobic exercises
1. Improve cardiovascular health. These exercises strengthen your heart and allow
blood to flow more efficiently throughout your body.
2. Reduce asthma symptoms. Aerobic exercise can assist asthmatics by reducing the
frequency and intensity of their asthma attacks.
3. Reduce chronic pain. Cardiovascular exercise, particularly low-impact activities,
may help regain muscle function and endurance for people with chronic back pain.
4. Aid sleep. A study of people with chronic sleep problems found that combining a
regular exercise regimen with good sleep can be effective treatment for insomnia.

5. Lower blood pressure levels. Exercise, in general, helps in reducing blood


pressure even without medicine.
6. Regulate blood sugar levels. Regular physical activity helps to maintain
body weight while also regulating insulin levels and lowering blood sugar.
EXAMPLES OF aerobic EXERCISES

Step Skipping
burpees
aerobics rope

Jogging/
swimming
running
FLEXIBILITY
Exercises
Flexibility exercises help your body
stay flexible by stretching your
muscles. These exercises may not
increase your endurance or strength,
but flexibility allows you to move more
freely during other workouts and in
everyday activities.
Static flexibility
Refers to a person’s full range of motion that can be
achieved without movement. This means how far they
can reach or bend in a stretch, and then hold it there
without any excess movement.

Dynamic flexibility
Refers to the body’s ability of the muscles and joints
to move through a full range of motion during
activities.
Benefits of flexibility exercises
1. Mobility.
2. Muscles Flexibility and Recovery.
3. Decreases Injury.
EXAMPLES OF flexibility EXERCISES

Straddle Shoulder
splits
position stand

yoga Tai chi


stretching
Exercises
Stretching is a form of physical
exercise in which a specific muscle or
tendon (or muscle group) is
deliberately flexed or stretched in order
to improve the muscle's felt elasticity
and achieve comfortable muscle tone.
Benefits of stretching exercises
1. Decreases muscle stiffness and increases range of motion.
2. May reduce your risk of injury.
3. Helps relieve post-exercise aches and pains.
4. Improves posture.
5. Helps reduce or manage stress.
6. Reduces muscular tension and enhances muscular relaxation.
7. Improves mechanical efficiency and overall functional performance.

8. Prepares the body for the stress of exercise.


9. Promotes circulation.
10.Decreases the risk of low-back pain.

circuit
Exercises
Circuit training is a type of training that
involves rotating between several
exercises that target different muscle
groups with minimal rest in between.
It’s ideal for those looking for a quick,
effective, full-body workout.
Circuit
training
Circuit training is one of the best methods of exercising as it provides
excellent all-round fitness, tone, strength, and a reduction of weight and
inches. In short, maximum results in minimum time. It is an excellent way
to simultaneously improve mobility, strength and stamina.
Types of circuit training
1. Timed Circuit. This type of circuit involves working to a set time period for both
rest and exercise intervals.
2. Competition Circuit. This is like a timed circuit, but a person pushed themselves to
see how many repetitions they can do in the set time period.
3. Repetition Circuit. This type of circuit is great if a person is working with large
groups of people who have different levels of fitness and ability.

4. Sport Specific or Running Circuit. This type of circuit is best done outside
or in a large, open area.
Benefits of circuit training
1. Improves muscular endurance.
2. Increases strength and muscle growth.
3. Improves heart health.
4. Offers a full-body workout.
5. Is time efficient.
6. Improves exercise adherence.
7. May promote weight loss.
8. May improve mood.
9. Perfect for all levels.

TRICEP Push
dips ups
cooldown
Exercises
Are easy activities that will allow
the body to gradually transition
from an exertional state to a
resting or near resting state. Their
main aim is to promote recovery
and return the body to a pre-
exercise, or pre-workout level.
Benefits of cooldown
1. Helping your heart rate and breathing return to normal.
2. Preventing fainting or dizziness.
3. Removing waste product such as lactic acid which can build up during an
activity.
4. Reduce muscle stiffness, soreness and cramping.
