Oh! I love this! I like the episodes where you talk about things like meditation and being healthy. I train at home and at the gym. Please keep us posted on your progress!
I'm so glad to hear that you're enjoying the content! It's wonderful to know that the episodes on meditation and health resonate with you. If there's anything specific you'd like to see or discuss in future episodes, feel free to let me know! 🌱💪📚
Ironically I’m a person trainer lol
However, I think the most important part of any fitness journey is to make it enjoyable. As long as you’re having fun (and being safe), it will be easy to stay consistent and make progress.
Keep up the good work!! Looking forward future episodes about fitness!
Thank you so much for your input, especially coming from a personal trainer! I think It's so true that enjoyment is key in any fitness journey!
I can’t imagine a better place to learn Japanese ❤ lots of support and thank you for sharing this video !
ありがとうございます❤
Hi Sayuri - san, great content, I'll have to add some of this new vocab to my repertoire. Can't wait to go to the gym again tomorrow after spending a few days away from home 😊
がんばりましょう！I'll give you a new word for the next training, '上腕二頭筋 (じょうわんにとうきん),' which means biceps😁
Great topic (secretly wishing for more in the future)!
Strength training has lots of benefits and I'd like it to get more popular over there also. I go to the gym but also at times do some exercise at home with dumbbells or bodyweight. Women have a lot less muscle mass in the upper body than men so it's natural to face a larger challenge. Generally I would advice to make sure the exercise techniques are correct (preferably have some experienced trainer to instruct or learn from videos or even take footage of your training and compare it to correct techniques) and won't strain the wrong parts of your body which can lead to injury in time if continued. Other one is having a bit patience and learning to listen to the signals your body is sending. The stress on your body should be countered with rest and more fat/carbs/protein so the body has fuel to grow and keep the energy levels positive.
I would still recommend joining the gym as usually the machines have settings for small resistance as well. But if you want to concentrate on home training for now, some dumbbells, a pull-up bar and resistance bands are a decent choice I think. You can also make body weight exercises easier or harder. If it gets too easy, add water bottle(s) in backpack and put it on for added weight. If the push-ups are too hard, start them against a higher elevation. Against a table first, advancing to an edge of a sofa (or comparable) and lastly on the floor after you're strong enough. Pull-ups can be made easier with adding and stretching resistance bands from the bar to your feet and in time remove a band or do a partial repetitions.
Lastly, I'd advice that there are many ways to Rome, so choose the type of exercise that feels motivational or fun or at least not painful :D And of course, the body is constantly adapting, so try to add a small increase in repetitions or more resistance each time. My own rule of thumb is to keep the repetitions in about 5-12 range and add small amount of weight if I can manage 13 for example (and reduce a couple of repetitions if I'm adding more resistance). Powerlifters or weightlifters like smaller repetition ranges and an endurance athlete may prefer higher ranges. It also helps if one likes to do exercise along a systematic training program and make notes so you can see your progress in time in clear numbers.
Sorry about the length, I got carried away 😇 Hopefully you got some ideas or stuff to think about.
Wow, thank you so much for sharing your comprehensive insights on strength training!
what's kind of funny is that the `low row` gym equipment becomes in katakana 'ロロ' so if I notice it, I proceed to exercise with 'row row row your boat...' in my head
You're right! マシンの名前はローローです😂ローローロー
Thanks for the video, Sayuri! As always, great content!
I've been doing jym for quite a long time and its indeed can be very exiting part of your life. Althou its very important to find a balance between doing it too leniently and having little results and overdoing it so that it becomes boring/unwanted of even harmful.
If you still in doubt whether its for you, you can just buy an adjustable dumble set (one pair of dumbles that can be adjusted lets say from 1 to 15 kilos or something like that) and use them at home for a variety of extersises. With adjustable weight dumbles alone you wont become the bodybuilder ,but you can definitely do much more exersises than just with you weight alone! So its kinda in between devoting yourself to gym and working out with you own weight i'd say. Good place to start if you're still not sure, imho.
Good luck with you trainings and stay healthy!
