LAKE MILLS, Wis. - January 7th, 2005
"New research shows that the most effective form of exercise for adults
of all ages is fast, short, and intense types of anaerobic exercise. Anaerobic
exercise, unlike steady-paced aerobic exercise, allows us to naturally unleash
the most powerful body-fat-cutting, muscle-toning, anti-aging substance known
to science—growth hormone,” says Phil Campbell, the 52-year-old author
of Ready, Set, Go! Synergy Fitness. “If your
favorite form of exercise (running, cycling, power walking, swimming, etc.) can
get you winded quickly, it is a form of anaerobic exercise and can help you reach
the growth hormone release benchmarks necessary to drop body fat quickly.”
It's no secret that several well-known entertainers take growth hormone (GH) injections for its body-fat-cutting, youth-rejuvenating properties, but there can be serious side-effects from taking injections. Natural methods are always best, and producing growth hormone from high-intensity exercise is unquestionably natural.
GH injections are given to children with growth problems to help them grow normally. Rather than make adults grow taller, however, GH can reverse several measurable clinical factors of the middle-age spread—officially named "somatopause" by researchers. The middle-age somatopause is signified by energy decline, weight-gain, loss of muscle, and wrinkled skin after the age of 30.
Research shows that women actually get a slightly better growth hormone
response from high-intensity exercise than men. Researchers from the
University of Virginia Clinical Research Center conclude, "Gender comparisons
revealed that women had a greater production rate and a trend
for a greater mass
of GH secreted per pulse than men" (Gender
governs the relationship between exercise intensity and growth hormone
release in young adults, 2002, Pritzlaff-Roy). That means that
women can better fight somatopause by adding anaerobic exercise to
their workout routine.
Long and slow forms of cardio, such as walking, are great ways for an inactive person to begin. But, it is only a starting point that must lead to moderate-intensity exercise, which, in turn, leads to high-intensity anaerobic exercise.
For years, walking for 30 minutes a day was said to be adequate enough to delay heart disease and premature death. A new study of 2,000 men over 10 years destroys the low-intensity walking standard. Researchers show that low intensity does nothing to prevent death from heart disease.
Only the highest levels of exercise intensity lowered death rates. So, there are many reasons to incorporate anaerobic exercise into your weekly routine, but be wise. Though it is the most productive form of exercise and should be a part of every fitness routine, a progressive build-up program from low, to moderate, to high intensity is necessary. Progressive build-up will help prevent injury, and it will condition and develop the body so you can receive all the benefits from increasing exercise-induced growth hormone. Always seek your physician’s approval before starting a new exercise program.
To make it easy for today’s busy woman to fit an effective anaerobic workout into her schedule, Vision Fitness, a top fitness equipment company in North America, with the help of Phil Campbell, has added a SPRINT 8 anaerobic program to their new 200 and 600 Series fitness bikes and elliptical trainers. SPRINT 8 is a quick, effective, 20-minute program that offers 16 intensity levels to give everyone from beginners to elite athletes an effective workout.
“The great thing about the SPRINT 8 program,” states Christa Walter, Brand Manager for Vision Fitness and regular user of SPRINT 8, ”is that it is all laid out for you. The program tells you when to increase your speed and when to rest, and it automatically adjusts resistance for you during the workout. The program takes only 20 minutes, and you only need to do the program a few days a week to see results.”
