How to get Super Fitness.

 

Achieving "super fitness" is a broad and subjective goal that can mean different things to different people. To reach a high level of fitness, you'll need a combination of regular exercise, a balanced diet, proper rest, and a healthy lifestyle. 

Do you want to achieve a fitness level that lasts a lifetime? 

Physical fitness is a state of health and well-being and, more specifically, the ability to perform aspects of sports, occupations and daily activities. Physical fitness is generally achieved through proper nutrition, moderate-vigorous physical exercise, and sufficient rest along with a formal recovery plan.

Before the Industrial Revolution, fitness was defined as the capacity to carry out the day's activities without undue fatigue or lethargy. However, with automation and changes in lifestyles, physical fitness is now considered a measure of the body's ability to function efficiently and effectively in work and leisure activities, to be healthy, to resist hypokinetic diseases, improve immune system and to meet emergency situations.

Ben Alldis, a renowned fitness coach and Peloton instructor, is here to help you. With practical and straightforward advice, Ben shares his set of tips to get you irreversibly fit.

Start small and stay consistent: 

Ben says that exercise doesn't have to mean hitting the gym hard from day one. Begin with easy and simple steps, like taking a nature walk or doing some light yoga. The key is to be consistent with your efforts.

Mix up your workouts: 

Don't get stuck in a fitness rut. Ben suggests trying different activities like cycling, tennis, or yoga. Keeping things varied prevents boredom and keeps you motivated.

Smart scheduling: 

Instead of mindlessly watching Netflix or wasting time scrolling up and down devices, consider squeezing in a quick workout. Ben talks about prioritising activities that give you energy, like exercise and healthy eating, over things that drain you.

Buddy system: 

Find a workout buddy or join a community like Peloton. Having support and accountability can make a world of difference in staying on track.

Don't let setbacks get you down: 

We all have days when we indulge or skip a workout. All of us have downtime when we feel dispirited. Ben reminds us not to be discouraged by setbacks or disappointments. Each day is a fresh opportunity to prioritise wellness.

Prioritise sleep: 

Quality sleep is a big MUST. Ben learned from sleep expert Matthew Walker that good sleep positively impacts productivity and overall functioning. Tracking your sleep habits can lead to improvements.

Understand your body clock: 

Everyone has their own rhythm. Ben advises scheduling workouts when you feel most energetic, whether that's in the morning or later in the day.

Age is just a number: 

It's never too late to start working on your fitness. Small but consistent efforts can lead to significant improvements, no matter what is your age.

Invest in future strength: 

Ben stresses the importance of viewing exercise as an investment in your future health. Being fit can help you better handle unexpected challenges.

Have fun: 

Last but not the least, it is about making the entire process fun. Ben reminds us that exercise should be enjoyable, not a chore. 

Be grateful for the ability to move your body, and find pleasure in staying active.

In a world where fitness is about long-term health, not just short-term goals, Ben's practical tips provide a roadmap to achieving irreversible fitness. 

So, start small, stay consistent, and remember, you're never too old to invest in a healthier
