Improve your cardiovascular fitness Eighty percent Of accidents, of all kinds, are caused by human error. Very few people make errors willingly. Very few people are care less. A better word might be"think lessness". Most of us have the idea that "it won't happen to me" or we are occupied with other things. Stress is a good thing. If we didn't have it we wouldn't be able to live. Stress is necessry for us to adapt to the environment around us. What happens is that stressors are increasing so rapidly that we have difficulty adapting to them. Our reaction to stressors (which is what we call stress) is responsible for our not living as long as we might. The average age of a heart attack victim is 31. The average age of a fatal heart attack victim is 32. The average age of a stroke victim is about 40. That age used to be about 70 or 80. These increasing ages of heart attack and stroke vic tims is due to stress. We also have a $35 billion industry just dispensing pills to help us deal with stress. Stress in small amounts is food for us and our body adapts to it. Stress in large amounts kills. Our bodies and minds have been conditioned for many thousands of years to respond to threats from the external world (tigers) by get ting ready to run or fight. Through the years the threat from real tigers increased and our mind prepares for the new threats just as though they were real tigers. Emotional and psychological threats (stresses) cause our bodies to pre pare for fight or flight just as exter nal threats do. The result is that we are in an almost constant state of preparedness for either running or fighting. In the normal fight or flight response to external stressors, the stress is relieved by the running or fighting. In our constant state of stress there is no relief. What can we do to reduce stress? One of the things we can do is reduce the amount of sugar we consume. High levels of sugar pro duce high levels of stress. 1 he other biggest thing we tan do is exercise. When the bodv is under stress it produces high levels of blood sugar in preparation for strenuous physi cal activity. If we reduce our level of sugar intake and exercise stren uously on a regular basis we have done the two most important things we can do to relieve stress. Stress is perceived. The events that are stressful to one of us may not be to another. There are no external measurements of what stressors are. The items in our environment that are stressful to us are perceived to be stressful. We cannot stop the stress re sponse from starting. Wecan man age the stress once it has started and reduce its effect on us but we can't stop it from starting. There arc three ways to over come ay situation. It you don't like it, change it. If you can't change it, remove yourself from it. If you cannot or choose not to remove yourself from it, change your attitude toward it. There is nothing todo in this life, except die. All other things in life are choices. Fitness is a combination of mus cular performance, body composi tion, and cardiovasuclar fitness. Of these components, cardiovascular fitness is perhaps the most impor tant because it reflects the body's ability to use oxygen to release energy. Improvingyourcardiovas cular fitness increases your supply of oxygen (and energy), and can lead to prolonged endurance and optimum performance. By condi tioning your cardiovascular system, you can also decrease your risk of heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, and other life-threatening diseases. The normal heart beats at a rate of approximatlcy 70 beats per minute at rest or about one hundred thou sand beats a day. The well-conditioned heart can actually beat as few as 40 times a minute at rest or approximately fifty thousand beats a day. In short, a well-conditioned heart conserves energy. It can supply oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body with half the effort. Since the heart is a muscle, it can become bigger and stronger through exercise that progressively increases the body's demand for oxygen. This type of exercise involves steady, continuous motion of the large muscles which places a large and continuous energy demand on the heart. Aerobic activities, walking, running, swimming, cycling, etc. should be intensive enough to raise and sustain your heartbeat to a target heart range or TH R to 60 to 80 percent of its maximum capac ity for at least 20 to 30 minutes. For optimum benefits, you should exer cise acrobically within your THR for at least 20 to 30 minutes a min imum of three times a week. A well-conditioned heart, like any muscle, is stronger and more efficent than average. By exercis ing within your target heart range for 20-30 minutes 3 times a week, you can condition your heart and enjoy the benefit of a more fit and healthy lifestyle in general. Conditioning exercises impn flexibility and muscle strcngti. Muscles help ou move, and also support all the bones in vour bodv. Stiff, weak muscles can limit move ment, fail to support the rest of your body, and may make it hard to maintian a vigorous activity long enough to reach your THR. Stretching exercises improve flexi bility, while "resistance" exercises (such as push-ups) build muscle strength. Fitness also includes weight con-, trol, proper nutrition, and stress reduction. Becoming fit is saying "yes" to life and "no" to unhealthy habits such as smoking and alcohol and drug misuse. A total fitness plan can improve both the quality and the quantity of the years ahead of you. As you begin your fitness plan, pace yourself. Know your correct THR and try not to exceed it. Choose activities you enjoy as your core aerobic exercises, and do a variety of conditioning exercises to improve flexibility and muscle strength. Finally, make healthy life st le choices to help you rsclf become healthy and fit.
