Workout Styles

Hi there everyone. Hope you all enjoyed your morning workouts specially if you was following this morning PoO PoW workout plan posted. I find a great workout in the morning is a great way to start the day off.

First i would like to apologies becuase i know in my workout plans i state ill be posting up 'follow-ups' on how each exercise performed benefits you and what parts of the body it impacts more. Not only that but i also mentioned the PoO PoW Boot Camp workout plan.

I've set time a side and i will be posting up everything ive stated i will with due course so please keep the eye out and if you follow me on twitter or facebook all my latest updates will be updated on there instantly.

The PoO PoW Boot Camp workout plan consist of a series of exercises put together and performed during a workout where they is no stopping or minimum stop during exercise change. Boot Camp workouts have been proven to be very affective workout plans that help keep you fit, motivated and burn off weight. A style taken from the military and one that i have been looking into with great interest. Same way i have been looking into HIITs style workouts with great interest.

There's many different types of workouts out there and there's something for everyone. You just need to find the right one for you. I personally find any type of workout great if performed the right way and with motivation. I will always highly recommend HIITs style workouts and boot camp style becuase they have been proven world wide to be the most effective workouts over short periods of time.

Thats why i am creating styles of workouts that not only combined great aspects of workouts already out there but also workouts that can be used and adapted for all and the main aspect too all which will never change is motivation, motivation and motivation.

There is no quick way to lose weight and maintain a fit, healthy and stronger body, taking drugs that have been proven or state they will help you lose weight is only a quick fix and yes if it works (becuase it doesn't work for everyone) for you and you feel good becuase you look better due to weight lost doesn't make you any heather and in fact you could actually be worse off. Please consider workouts like the ones stated above because workout a little every day and watching how you eat and sleep will make all the difference you need. You will not only feel better from how you look but also physically feel better as well.

Were all our own keepers of our body and only us can be held responsible for how its maintained. We can style have fun enjoy life and party hard and still keep fit.

Thanks for reading

Please follow me if you find what i have say helps or interesting and stay tuned because there's a great deal more coming.
