The COVID-19 pandemic has thrown us a curveball. Many of us possibly thought about every aspect of our life as we are invariably living in fear of falling victim to the virus. We are ready to try everything and anything to boost our immunity. It is for a fact that working out helps boost immunity. When we say exercise, it need not necessarily mean going out of the way and doing something which UR body isn’t used to. All I advise is to move UR body! To reiterate the importance of workout lets start by understanding how exercise has helped us during influenza and how it’s helping us now during COVID.

The Origins Of Pilates

The name ‘pilates’ was derived from Joseph Hubertus Pilates, the man who used a combination of various exercises. This gave birth to an incredibly effective workout routine that is still trending globally! He suffered a few illnesses during his childhood, making him interested in physical fitness.

He was exposed to various types of physical routines in his life before he ended up in internment during World War I. He left Germany around 1912 and came to Britain. He was trained in boxing, diving, skiing, acrobats, self-defence, to name a few.

Attaching springs to the beds of the hospitals, enabled the physically challenged to get a full-body workout with ease. Today we know that piece of equipment as the Cadillac/trapeze table!

As the war broke out in 1914, Joseph was kept in internment where he developed his fitness routine by fusing several sport-specific workout variations in his unique routine. Slowly this routine was picked up by a few curious inmates stuck in internment with him. These inmates were his first students/trainees and the camp was where he introduced Pilates.

The immunity developing aspect of these physical exercises came to light when the Spanish flu was at its peak in 1918. It was observed that Pilates or the inmates he trained were able to ward off the diseases successfully. He was then positioned as a nurse in the hospital wing to care for the injured soldiers.

Cadillac/ trapeze table

Pilates was tasked to help along with the recovery of veterans who were physically challenged fighting the war. He neatly worked out a practical and innovative idea to modify his routine to suit his soldiers. Attaching springs to the beds of the hospitals, enabled the physically challenged to get a full-body workout with ease. Today we know that piece of equipment as the Cadillac/trapeze table!

After the war ended, he returned to Germany and started working on reforming his techniques and incorporating techniques from the east and the west. He set up his first studio in 1923 in America, and we all know this legacy with its universal appeal. That was the beginning of an exercise powerhouse we now know as Pilates.

Importance Of Working Out During COVID

1. Boosts your immunity and improves your chances of fighting the virus, flu or infection.

2. Helps release happy hormones(endorphins) in the body which keep you mentally and physically fit.

3. Reduces stress, prevents weight gain and improves your sleep.

As we are living through a pandemic at the moment, it is essential to remember that when injured soldiers can have the urge to work out, we can too. While creating and adjusting to new fitness routines may take some effort, any physical activity during the coronavirus pandemic can help you optimize your health and wellbeing. Use this time wisely to make the most of your lockdown, work out at your pace and as I said before a little bit of exercise is better than no exercise. If you need a little push, then read our other article on how you can build your workout routine.

Top 5 Techniques To Help Improve UR Body Posture 

An important aspect of ensuring our long-term health is good posture. Ensuring that you are holding UR body correctly while moving or stationary can help to alleviate pain, injuries and certain health issues as well. During our everyday movement we get used to poor postural positions. These can cause pain or discomfort when not addressed. So if you are struggling with pain due to bad posture these five techniques will help release tight muscles and strengthen UR weak muscles. Here are a few easy stretches and exercises that can help improve overall body posture. Top 5 Techniques To Help Improve UR Body Posture Leandi van Zyl, CSCS Head – Sport Science (Strength & Conditioning) Sir HN Reliance Foundation Hospital An important aspect of ensuring our long-term health is good posture. Ensuring that you are holding UR body correctly while moving or stationary can help to alleviate pain, injuries and certain health issues as well. During our everyday movement we get used to poor postural positions. These can cause pain or discomfort when not addressed. So if you are struggling with pain due to bad posture these five techniques will help release tight muscles and strengthen UR weak muscles. Here are a few easy stretches and exercises that can help improve overall body posture. 1. Stretching and releasing of the chest muscle While moving around and working in your day-to-day life, the tendency is to slouch your upper back. This causes the chest muscles to become overly tight and which translates the shoulders forward. Releasing or stretching the chest muscles is very important and can help relieve tension in the upper back and neck. This is also an important stretch for fitness enthusiasts who tend to prefer push-ups and bench press to pulling exercises. As seen in the picture there are three different positions by which you can stretch your chest. Just raise your hands a bit higher each time. Each stretch should be held for at least 30 seconds and can be repeated 2 to 3 times. 2. Scapular strengthening exercise The forward bending posture of the upper body can also cause dysfunction in the upper back. Because of the tightness in the chest, the upper back muscles can get lengthened and weak. Here is an effective upper back exercise that can help correct this. Lying down on your stomach, make a ‘W’ with your arms. From this position straighten your arms. When returning to the W position, try squeezing both UR shoulder blades together. Do not arch UR lower back. You can do 10-15 repetitions and 2-3 sets. 3. Thoracic mobility Mobility is when joints and muscles can move freely without any restrictions. The movement of the Thoracic Spine (rib and chest area) that gets restricted from bad posture is extension and rotation. Extension is the ability to straighten the upper back and rotation is rotating your upper body without movement from your lumbar spine. The following mobility drill can help make the thoracic spine move better. The important aspect here is to eliminate lumbar spine movement. Keeping the knees together keeps the movement from the thoracic spine. During this mobility drill the goal is to open the chest up as much as you can. This can be done 10-15 times for 2-3 repetitions. To progress, you can add a light weight in the hand that is on top. 4. Upper Back stretch Poor posture, an injury or muscle overuse can usually be the cause of upper back pain. Though upper back pain is less common than lower back pain or neck pain, there are many causes for it. One of the causes may be deconditioning which means, you may not be using your muscles correctly. This could easily happen while sitting at UR desk for long hours in the wrong posture. Certain exercises can help strengthen your back and also help improve UR posture. Try this upper back stretch to help correct your posture and also ease pain. Keeping UR elbows bent, try to push down your upper body as far as possible. A stretch should come over UR upper body and triceps muscles. Hold for 20-30 seconds and repeat 2 to 3 times. 5. Pelvic Mobility The ideal position of our pelvic bone should be neutral. If we sit for long periods of time on the wrong chair, we tend to round our lower back or posterior tilt our pelvis which might cause pain in the lower back. The structures around the pelvis can get tight because of poor posture. This is why the first step to better pelvis posture is pelvic tilts. Once you are able to maintain a neutral pelvic you can start strengthening your core to be able to sustain the posture in a different position. A neutral pelvis is when the lumbar spine is slightly arched but not too much and the pelvis pushing forward or back. Our lumbar spine is made to be stable. This means that a structure is able to maintain a specific position despite forces being placed on it. In order to train lumbar stability we need to do a variety of core exercises. Pelvic Tilts The main idea is to move only your pelvic bone. Try keeping your hands on your hips to help with navigating your pelvis. The first movement would be to arch your lower back (pushing your buttocks out) and the second would be rounding your lower back (bringing your buttocks in). These exercises can be done 10 times for 2 to 3 sets. Bad posture can become a habit and cause some muscles to tighten up and others to lengthen and weaken. Releasing the chest muscles and upper trapezius muscles, strengthening your shoulder blade muscles, working on your thoracic mobility and neutral pelvis can help improve UR posture and reduce pain.

Best BOSU Ball Exercises For The Ultimate Full-Body Workout! 

If trying out a new effective workout and improving your overall balance and stability is on your mind, it may be time for you to start exercising with a BOSU balance trainer. BOSU (stands for Both Sides Utilised) and looks something like a stability ball cut in half. It has a rubber hemisphere on one side and a flat surface on the other side and is excellent for building stability and strength! Best BOSU Ball Exercises For The Ultimate Full-Body Workout! K.Vijay Simha Bachelor in Physiotherapy, Exercise Scientist, Exercise Rehabilitation Specialist If trying out a new effective workout and improving your overall balance and stability is on your mind, it may be time for you to start exercising with a BOSU balance trainer. BOSU (stands for Both Sides Utilised) and looks something like a stability ball cut in half. It has a rubber hemisphere on one side and a flat surface on the other side and is excellent for building stability and strength! The flat surface provides steadiness to perform your workouts with extreme accuracy while the hemisphere on the other hand is partially filled with air and offers sufficient instability that stimulates the functioning of all your core muscles. You can use both the hemisphere and the flat surface to improve your balance and strengthen your core. Use it to do full-body workouts or target problematic areas. It’s easy for everybody to use, even beginners. So here are some superb fun exercises to do with the BOSU ball. 1. Squats - Keep the flat surface up, i.e., place the BOSU ball on the rubber hemisphere. Position your right leg on one side of the ball, the ball will slant to the right - try to balance yourself by placing your left leg on the other side of the even surface. Be sure that you are steady and stable. Now, thrust your hips behind and at the same time lower your body; let your knees bend and then take your arms up close to your chest. Make sure your knees don’t extend beyond your toes. 2. Hip Raise - Lie flat on the ground. Stretch your knees and put your feet on both sides of the ball. Keep your hands by your side, palms flat on the surface and face towards the ceiling. Thrust your hips toward the ceiling. Stop when your thighs are in line with your hips. Lower your hips without placing them on the floor. 3. Lunge - Stand one foot away from the BOSU ball. Keep your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, core engaged and chest outwards. The semi-circular surface of the BOSU ball should be upwards. Place your right leg on top of the ball. Arch both your knees and lower your upper body so that your thighs are vertical to your shins. Hold this posture for a second and then go back to the starting position. Step on the ball with your right leg - arch both your knees, lower your lunge and torso. Hold this position for a second and get back again to the beginning position. 4. Full Plank - Flip over the ball and grip it at the ends. Spread your right foot behind your body, stretch your toes and place them on the floor. Now spread your left foot behind you and support your body on your arched toes of both your feet. Keep your core engaged and also ensure your spine is in alignment with your neckline and you are looking down. Hold this pose for 30-60 seconds. 5. Jump Squats - Stand a foot away from the ball. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, chest out, core engaged and knees marginally bent. The hemispherical surface of the ball should be facing upwards. Curve your knees a little as a prep to hop on the ball. Jump and land down on the semi-circular surface of the ball. Be sure that you are in a squatting position, with your back upright. Also, ensure your knees don’t extend your toes. Stay in this position for some time then get up and jump back on the ground - immediately as you land on the ground, squat downwards. 6. Crunches - Be seated on the ball, place your palms on it and place the small of your back against the round side of the ball. Your hips should be closer to the edge of the even surface, at the same time your back should be fully alongside the curve of the ball. Keep your feet flat and your knees arched on the ground. Keep your thumb behind your ears and keep your head up with your remaining fingers. Ensure your core is engaged. Breathe in and crunch up by lifting your upper body. Breathe out as you go up. Breathe in and get back to the starting point. 7. Sit-Ups - Get on the cupola of the ball and slightly slide down. Keep your thumbs behind your ears and keep your head up with the help of the other fingers. Engage your core lifting your upper body and come down to a sitting posture. Breathe out while doing this. Breathe in and go back to the initial pose. 8. Push-Ups - Flip the ball so that the flat surface is facing upwards. Keep your palms on both the sides of the ball. Spread your feet behind you and keep your spinal column in line with your neckline. Engage your core, breathe in, stretch your elbows and lower your body until your upper body is about to touch the surface of the ball. Breathe out and push your body back to the starting point.

A Quick Guide To Plyometric Exercises 

Checklist 01 What Is Plyometrics? Plyometrics is a term used to describe exercises where you store elastic potential energy for a second and release it into kinetic energy that makes your muscles move. It entails a muscle reaching optimum force in the least amount of time. Plyometrics is used in a very efficient way to increase UR heart rate and it also works UR whole body. As children we used to hop, skip and jump anywhere and everywhere and as grown-ups we have to incorporate these same simple principles in our training programmes to be able to fully develop power. 02 Phases Of Plyometrics There are three phases of a plyometric exercise: First is the eccentric, which is the pre-stretch where the potential energy is stored. The second phase is the amortization phase, the pause between phase one and two. It is important to keep the amortization phase as short as possible so that the potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy. The last phase is the concentric phase where the movement happens. There are also three different modes of plyometrics: upper body, lower body and the trunk. 03 Important Guidelines Before taking part in a plyometric programme there are important guidelines to be followed in order to do these movements safely. Before taking part in any exercise programme, you should get an evaluation done to check if there are any current injuries or illnesses that might obstruct UR training. The most important thing before taking part in a plyometric training programme is technique. When landing, ensure that UR shoulders are in line with UR knees, so that your centre of gravity is over the base of support. When the technique is proper you can benefit from the exercises and prevent injuries. 04 The Role Of Strength & Balance A certain level of strength is necessary before taking part in a plyometric training programme. The recommendation is that you should be able to squat 1.5 times your body weight and you should be able to bench up to 1 to 1.5 of your body weight. Another important factor needed for plyometrics is balance. In order to properly execute bounding, skipping and jumping exercises, you should be able to balance. Here’s a simple way to test your balance – try to stand on one leg for 30 seconds without falling. 05 Precautions Special precaution should be taken if you are on the heavier side as it puts a lot more pressure on the joints which can cause an injury. Before taking part in a plyometric programme make sure the flooring is good. Concrete is not recommended for jumping, because it does not give the knees enough cushioning to absorb the shock from jumping. Also, ensure you are wearing the right footwear as this can help with absorbing the shocks. 06 Effectiveness Of Plyometrics What makes plyometrics so effective is its high intensity training, which means, it’s very good for weight loss and for improving explosive power. It can also serve as a variation in your training programme. It is important to start with the basics, such as skipping and then progress to the harder exercises such as box jumps and depth jumps. Make sure you get enough rest between sessions. Ideally 48 hours between sessions is recommended. 07 Best Plyometric Exercises That Can Be Done Anywhere Skipping is an effective way to increase your coordination and explosive power. Research suggests that if you skip for 15 minutes, it is as effective as running for half an hour. Squat jumps can be done anywhere, provided the floor is good for jumping. You should be able to do squats properly before taking part in this exercise. Make sure UR knees stay in line with UR hips, with UR rear pushed back. The landing is probably the most important part. Make sure when you land, you bend your knees and keep your shoulders in line with your knees. If you want to make this exercise more difficult, you can lift your knees up to your chest while jumping. Explosive push-ups are another way to produce power in your upper body. You should be able to do a push-up all the way to the ground before attempting the explosive push-up. Keep UR core activated and push yourself off the ground. If you want to increase the difficulty of this exercise, you can opt for clap push-ups. The use of medicine balls is an effective way to train for explosive power for the upper body and trunk. Side rotational medicine ball throws is an exercise that trains the lateral muscles of the core. In a squat position throw the ball by rotating only your upper body. Catch the ball in the same position and in the same movement and without stopping throw the ball back to the wall.

5 Latest Quarantine Workouts 

Some of the things I’ve noticed as a current trend is people are going to online resources a lot more. So people are going online and using technology to either work with their trainers or find different classes that they want to do in terms of fitness. I’ve recently picked up practicing the steel mace which is a very ancient tool – like a long pole with a heavy ball towards the end of it and because of the difference of leverage points with this tool - a huge swing and momentum is created which UR body has to learn to navigate. I feel the number one thing that people are looking for is body weight exercises within the home. It is probably the most sought after trend right now! People are also now looking to train in a small environment as lots of us are at home. So they want to know things like ‘how to get a workout in a bedroom or hotel room or the ‘top tools you can use at your home.’ So now backpacks are used by putting books in the backpacks. Water bottles are used as small hand weights and thermos mugs are used as foam rollers – so there’s lots of ways to get creative! Currently, there’s also a big focus on mobility work. For instance, there’s stick mobility. It helps the body get into different positions to help deal with different mobility issues – it’s very valuable and very important. I use the videos online but I also try to come up with some of my own moves.

5 Biggest Fitness & Workout Trends Of 2020 

5 Biggest Fitness & Workout Trends Of 2020 Leandi van Zyl, CSCS Lead – Sport Science (Strength & Conditioning) Sir HN Reliance Foundation Hospital Some fitness trends have more or less been around for a while with some innovation but the trends this year are fairly new. From workouts powered by technology to online fitness classes, the fitness trends this year are motivating and exciting at the same time! Here are 5 fitness trends for 2020. 1. Functional Training: Before the lockdown, many gyms had developed ways to train people to lift heavier weights, do more repetitions and burn lots of calories. However, recently there has been a shift towards doing the right exercises that improve everyday movement. Functional training helps strengthen you in specific areas that are weak and helps you move better and more efficiently. Functional training is also easier to do at home. The risk for injury is also lower in comparison to programmes that need heavy equipment. 2. At Home HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) Workouts: A lot of people have been confined to their homes during recent months, and this has impacted what training looks like. Household items like chairs, water bottles, towels or backpacks have helped to serve as gym equipment for workouts at home. This will continue for the foreseeable future until it is safe for gyms to reopen. A good way to increase the intensity of UR home workouts is by doing high intensity interval training. This incorporates using time as a measurement of intensity. The exercise time in these workouts can range anywhere from 20 seconds to one minute with short rest intervals in-between exercises. These workouts are very effective if you have limited time to do a training session. 3. Yoga HIIT: Yoga has always been popular as an effective way of distressing while improving flexibility. Yoga High Intensity Interval Training uses dynamic yoga stretches in quick bursts to burn more calories while improving muscle length. These classes are done online and do not need any equipment, which makes it easy to do at home. 4. Virtual Cycling & Running: Virtual cycling and running has made it easy for endurance enthusiasts to train in the comfort of their home. It is as easy as hopping onto UR training cycle or treadmill and joining other friends and athletes in a virtual races or exercise sessions. There are many different tournaments and training sessions which can take UR endurance to the next level. The best thing about online racing is that you can compete against top athletes. 5. Technology-Led Training: Whether it is smart watches, fitness applications, GPS devices or heartrate monitors, technology is changing how we train! Technology is ever evolving and so is wearable technology and training programmes. Using the latest technology keeps you motivated and on track, to reach UR fitness goals. Smart watches help you see how much work you have put into UR training session. By looking at your heart rate and the amount of calories burned it is easy to see if you have to push more or less. There are multiple fitness applications that help people stay active during the lockdown. These applications show you what exercises to do and some can help monitor UR training sessions as well. However, these applications do not allow for individualized programmes and can increase the chances of sustaining an injury. What’s great about technology is that you are able to have online training sessions with qualified trainers in the comfort of UR home. This will make UR session more customized and a trainer can make sure you are doing all the exercises with the right techniques. During the lockdown staying active can be difficult but adding functional training, high intensity interval training, Yoga HIIT or virtual cycling or running to UR workout programme can keep you motivated and add some excitement to your routine. Using technology to monitor all the training you are doing is an effective way to know if you are improving. The best thing about technology is that you can take part in any training session without even stepping outside UR home!

Ashtanga yoga suryanamaskar guide 

How to do the south Indian version of surya namaskar Eddie Stern Today we are going to do the Surya Namaskar which is an ancient practice of the yogic tradition. There are different types of Surya Namaskar – some that are done in the north of India and some that are done in the south, which have different characteristics. Today, I’ll be teaching you a South Indian version of the Surya Namaskar that I learnt from my guru ji(s) Pattabhi Jois and guru ji Sharath Jois. Whenever UR doing these practices you should ensure UR doing three things all the time: 1)Moving with awareness 2)Breathing freely 3)Not feeling any discomfort Stretching a muscle and strengthening a muscle might require effort and you feel discomfort only if UR distorting the first two things. If you have discomfort which is pain, you won’t be able to breathe freely and you will stop moving with awareness because you will be so concerned with UR pain! So if you feel that level of discomfort you need to stop and rest or do less of that position. As with all exercises, it’s best to have a teacher present to help guide you. When you don’t have a teacher, it’s ok to try to use videos. But you have to pay a lot of attention to UR own body and to UR own capacity. OK let’s begin! The first Surya Namaskar has nine vinyasas. Vinyasa means breath and movement together. First Vinyasa Inhale and place UR hands over UR head. Second Vinyasa Exhale and place UR hands right down by UR sides Third Vinyasa Tighten UR hips a little and reach UR hands forward and exhale. Bend down. Bring UR head close to UR legs; bend UR knees as much as you need to get UR hands on the floor. Inhale with UR head up. Stay here and exhale. Repeat first and second Vinyasa Tighten UR belly – stand up and reach UR arms over UR head. Exhale and bring UR arms out to UR sides. Fourth Vinyasa Inhale and move UR arms forward and up like in the first Vinayasa. Tighten UR hips and like a swan dive, exhale and open UR chest and come down. Rest UR head down towards UR legs and place UR hands flat on the floor. Fifth Vinyasa Inhale with chest up Sixth Vinyasa Exhale, jump back and lower down Seventh Vinyasa Inhale and get into the upward facing dog position Eight Vinyasa Exhale and get into the downward facing dog position. Breathe with sound 5 times. Ninth Vinyasa Bend UR knees and look at UR hands. Inhale, hop UR feet forward, lift UR chest up straightening UR legs. Exhale and bend UR head down. Repeat first and second Vinyasa Inhale and stand up with UR hands over UR head. Exhale and stand in the samasthiti position. Take a long inhale and a long exhale. After you do UR Surya Namaskar or any other asanas, complete it by getting into a half lotus or full lotus position or even into a sukhasana position. Any position you like. We’ll start with the half lotus position today •Hold UR wrist behind UR back. Exhale and bend UR head down towards the floor •Inhale and sit back up. Put your hands behind you (palms flat on the floor) •Lengthen UR lower spine, lift UR chest up and gently rest UR head back. •If you have any neck discomfort, keep UR chin towards your collarbone and continue to lift UR chest up. This position helps to open UR lungs for deep breathing. •Push off from UR hands and keep UR hands on UR knees. The back of UR hands should be on UR knees; close UR thumb and forefinger. Keep UR Spine straight and UR chin down. Breathe slowly 10 times. Breathe with sound in UR nose and UR throat. •If UR in half lotus with the sukhasana, you can change UR legs but if UR in the full lotus position – don’t change UR legs – you’ll just be doing UR right first. And if UR in full lotus for all this, there will be one more pose that you can do at the end. •While still in the half lotus pose with the sukhasana - put your left leg on top. Hold onto your opposite wrist – exhale and bend down. Breathe 10 times. •Now come into the full lotus position if UR able to do it. If UR unable to do full lotus, just keep UR legs crossed. In full lotus padmasana, keep UR hands on the floor next to UR thighs and lift yourself off the ground for 10 breaths. If you are not able to do a full lotus – just cross UR legs and lift yourself off the floor for 10 breaths. (Your legs don’t have to be lifted off the ground). This concludes the Surya Namaskar – the first type, along with the 3 finishing poses and udbuthihi, the deep breathing which helps to calm the mind and give you a little bit of a meditative state at the end of your practice. •Now lie down on UR back for two minutes stretching UR legs out in front of you. Rest flat down. Some people are a bit more comfortable with their feet resting flat on the floor. Keep UR knees together if you have any lower back pain. Otherwise, rest with UR legs in front of you for 2 minutes. When UR ready to bring yourself back up, you can lengthen UR inhale and lengthen UR exhale, wriggle UR fingers and toes and move UR ankles and wrists around a little bit – pull UR knees into UR chest and hug UR knees for a moment. Rock yourself up to a seated position with UR hands folded in front of you. Say ‘Om Shanti’ three times to conclude. The most important thing about yoga, meditation or any devotional practice or contemplated practice you do is to do it with regularity because that’s when you begin to see change and transformation in UR life.
