Health Tip Of The Day for 10-31-06

Exercise and Recovery. As a rule walking, taking a run, riding a bike or doing some type of aerobics can generally be done every day.

The impact these types of exercises have is generally low and can be recovered from in 24 hours. So doing them every day is usually not a problem.

Strength training , on the other hand, has a higher impact on the muscle group you used and that group should be allowed to fully recover before training again. As a rule, if strength training is your exercise of choice, work major muscle groups like the chest, back, legs and core every two days. This way, you ensure you get the most out of your efforts.

Until tomorrow take care of your health.
