In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You should develop a training routine that fits your goals. There are a number of ways to tailor an exercise routine to best fit your lifestyle. The best option would be to hire a trainer to put together a program specifically tailored to your needs. Unfortunately, this can be expensive. There are many training programs you can buy online these days but again, they can be somewhat expensive if you are on a limited budget. Look online and at your local library for information about resistance training programs. You can use weights or put together a good body weight program for yourself. You are the expert when it comes to your body! Depending on the type of workout routine you choose to do, you should create a workout routine that you will follow. The CDC recommends that you get 150 minutes of moderate-level activity or 75 minutes of high-intensity activity per week to maintain your current weight. Aim to combine aerobic exercise with at least two days of muscle-building exercise, like weight-lifting, each week. Don't forget to warm up and cool down. To avoid injury, you should warm up your muscles before you start to vigorously exercise. This may include 10 15 minutes of walking or stretching. Repeat this to cool down your body after your exercise. This will help reduce muscle soreness. Ideally, you want to be training your entire body and not just one area. Make sure your routine focuses on each area of your body. Switch which muscle groups you are working in between sets or days to help give your body a chance to rest. Work out at least three days a week. You want to make sure your are exercising your muscles at least three days a week and that you give yourself rest days. Rest days will help your muscles relax and recover in between training. Lifting weights is a great way to build strong muscles and to help tone your body. However, starting a routine can be daunting, especially for beginners. There are a few tricks to help you get started. Research machines and weights. Before you jump into using every machine at the gym, ask for a run-down on the functions of each machine. Be sure to ask what muscle groups the machine targets so you can develop a routine that works for you. Be consistent. Once you have started to work out, be consistent for at least two to four weeks. Try to work out on the same days or times to develop a routine. Develop good form. You do not want to start lifting a ton of weight right out of the gate. Practice forms before you add more weight to your routine. A bodyweight routine does not involve any equipment. This routine relies solely on your own body weight. Exercises include push ups, squats, sit ups, pull-ups. This exercise can be helpful as it can be done comfortably in your own home without paying gym fees. These types of exercises can have the same health benefits as using weights or machines. While maintaining a healthy lifestyle can have many benefits, safety may be an issue. Studies have shown the working out after age 45 can help reduce and even reverse any age-related muscle loss. Lifting weights and gaining muscle can even help with heart disease. Each year, over 88,000 women between the ages of 45 65 have heart attacks. You have to consider safety when lifting weights. Not having proper form or trying to lift too much at one time may cause injury such as broken bones or torn muscles. When first starting out, it is best to consult a professional. Traditionally, there are five types of weightlifting programs: bodybuilding, powerlifting, circuit training, isometric, and high-volume training. Each of these training types of both benefits and downfalls. Bodybuilding This routine solely focuses on building muscle mass. You will be focusing on one muscle group per workout. Typically, bodybuilders lift every day. The cons of this is that, while your muscles are getting bigger, you might not be gaining additional strength. Powerlifting Like bodybuilding, powerlifting helps to gain muscle mass. However, powerlifting focuses on lifting the heaviest weights possible rather than focusing on appearance. You may be lifting heavy weights for shorter reps. Circuit Training Circuit training will put your body through a routine of short workouts such as 20 box jumps, 20 jumping jacks, and 10 pushups in quick succession. This will help your body burn fat and keep your heart rate up. This, however, might not help you build muscle mass. Isometric This helps builds stamina. Isometric training allows you to hold a weight in a certain position without going through a range of motion. This will probably not help you burn fat as quickly as circuit training, but will help you with stamina. High-volume training This type of training helps the body achieve as many sets as possible in a workout. For example, you will try and achieve as many pushups as you can in a one minute period. This can be intense and is not necessarily recommended for beginners. Like circuit training, it can help to burn fat. Some daily activities can be an effective form of exercise. According to the CDC, doing 30 minutes of heavy yard work (such as chopping wood or raking leaves) can burn around 220 calories. Simply walking (4.5mph) for 30 minutes can burn around 230 calories. Cardio routines vary in their intervals and intensity. These workouts are designed to build endurance but are not necessarily designed for gaining muscle mass. There are many types of cardio programs you can try. Find one that you like so you are more likely to keep at it! Try biking, hiking, jogging, swimming, rowing, or dancing. Cardio helps you use oxygen more efficiently to pump blood to your organs. This will increase your heart rate, and help you burn calories. Remember that you should not just do cardio alone, as the muscle mass and improved bone density will come from resistance training. One simple way to add cardio to your day is to use the stairs instead of taking an elevator. Climbing stairs will get your heart pumping and also help to tone your legs and glutes. It is important to let your body rest at times so that your muscles can repair themselves. You do not want to overexert yourself and cause harm to your body. Doing low-impact workouts such as yoga is a great way to stay active but to recover from more intense workouts.
Summary: Find a good training program. Work out to a routine that works for you. Work different muscle groups each time you exercise. Begin weight training. Consider a bodyweight routine. Understand the pros and cons building muscle over the age of 45. Examine the different types of weightlifting. Work out at home. Get your heart pumping with cardio training. Take the stairs. Relax and recover with yoga.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: This may seem simple, but it's the most important aspect of any tutoring position. You need to know the subject inside and out. Don't hesitate to use books, online resources, or your own teachers as resources to brush up on algebra before you begin tutoring students. When you schedule the tutoring session, be sure to get all the necessary information from the student, so you can provide adequate assistance. Find out what they're currently studying, what they've struggled with in the past, and what their goals are. You should also request access to homework assignments, quizzes, and tests. This will give you a clear idea of where they're struggling, and how to help. Some tutors create a short questionnaire to help them make a good start. This can include all the important data like the student's name, their availability, and their current course schedule. You might want to consider making a quiz for new students. This can help you determine their knowledge level, and better prepare to offer them superior tutoring. Don't "wing it." You want to make sure you're making the most of your time. Make a brief outline of what you're going to do, how much time each thing should take, and what the student will learn, during each lesson. Continually adjust these expectations based on your student's progress. The last thing you want is to have your student arrive only to discover you can't actually work the problem. Work through every problem a few times in advance, so you're certain to be able to offer them guidance as they solve the problem. Remember there is often more than one way to solve the problem, so keep track of the student's method and give them a chance to find the right answer. Then, walk them through the simplest way to solve.
Summary:
Know your stuff. Get information from students. Create a lesson plan. Practice the problems.
