Elliptical trainers have the ability to give a full body workout. One thing
they do not do is build strength and bone mass that many people need
to maintain good fitness. However elliptical trainers are excellent in
protecting joints while giving a great aerobic workout,
If you are a free weight lifter or a martial arts enthusiast you have
probably developed a regular routine of stretching and warming up that
protects your joints and muscle during your workout session. As you
get older you start to lose some of you flexibility and your warm ups and
stretching take longer and in some cases can be painful. Some of us
have begun to use treadmills and steppers to help in the overall body
warm ups. Even more recently we have begun to use the elliptical
trainers in our gym as part of our pre-workout warm-ups.
Elliptical trainers are great for warming up the upper body before using
heavy free weights. They are also great on days when the weather is
cold and you need to do extra warm-ups, The goal is to get warm
without wasting energy in aerobic exercise, Normally an elliptical trainer
will give a good warm-up in less than 10 minutes, You will still need to do
your stretching exercises especially if you are doing heavy benching
and squats,
In an effort to reduce injuries our Tai Kwon Do instructors recently
added two Nautilus elliptical trainers to our dojang. They gave a demo of
how the elliptical trainer routines helped give a no impact warm-up. Our
black belt class soon was using the elliptical trainers before every class.
Now if you want to warm up prior to class you should get there at least
an hour early to have access to one of the elliptical trainers.
Initially it appears that using the elliptical trainers is helping reduce
injuries, Again you still have to complete your forms and stretching prior
to conducting sparring, bag and pad work. As a result of the demand for
elliptical trainer time the dojang is acquiring 3 additional Reebok
elliptical trainers. If you are like most experienced martial artists you
have several old injuries that require special attention during warm-ups.
We feel the elliptical trainers really shine in keeping these areas warm
and loose.
Elliptical trainers do give and excellent upper and lower body aerobic
workouts, At least 3 days a week should be dedicated to aerobic cross
training, An additional benefit of using elliptical trainers is there ability to
give a full body warm-up prior to intense free weight exercise routines.
Elliptical trainers due to their low joint impact are also an excellent way
to warm up joints that may have been damaged by previous injuries.
Preventing and reducing injuries is key to maintaining life long fitness.
The use of elliptical trainers may help in this endeavor.
