We notice triceps and the ballooning of the big belly, but we make excuses for not exercising. .. These excuses, however, merely intensify our pro-- , blem. We emerge hum our winter, burrows sedated and lazy. To lose our winter fit buildup, we are confronted with the mo- mentous task of turning jello into muscle. There are thousands of ways to keep our bodies firm during the winter. If we keep active, continue to exercise, we will feel better and stay healthier. Winter might not be the ideal season to build the bionic body, but we can easily stay in shape. We can exercise outside in the add, at a ram, at a dance hall or at home. We can stay in ahape by watching fid, the trig belly is tha first to show and last to . go. When we see the belly lapping over our belts, ws need to start watching calories and working on abdominal exercises. Our belly cannot be flattened by using girdles or corset arrangements.

The principle works this way: In order to exercise or work, oxygen must be delivered to the power producing section of a muscle cell. Oxygen is carried by the hemoglobin in the blood, and our capacity to bum oxygen is related to the volume of blood which can be pumped through the cardiovascular system, said Dale Nelson, professor and physical education at Utah State University. The heart is the vital pump that carries blood, and it responds to overload principles. Hue means we must overwork our heart, beyond its normal capacity, then our heart will increase its stroke volume and quantities The more blood that is pumped through our eye-tothe more oxygen we receive and the longer we work. The best aerobic exercises involve the free flow of blood back to the heart. These are steady rhythmatical exercises such as jogging, swimming, cycling, end hiking. The aerobic craze makes exercise fun. We have aerobic dance, aerobic gymnastics, aerobic weights, aerobic videos and aerobic recordings. We can work out to the jazz tunes of a fitness recording in the privacy of our bedroom or dance to the cadence of an instructor in a large class. If we cant afford to exercise in an organized class, we can explore the many albums, tapes, booklets, and illustrations that offer song and dance along with the tunes. We are finding that exercise with music becomes play not work. So are the albums today that Jane Fonda's workout record made the top 40. Over 15 fitness records are on the shelves today, and selecting one that fits individual fitness needs can be a little The ideal recording include a warm-uan aerobic workout, calisthenics to work on specific muades and a final cooldown. When we shop for a workout album, we need to look for as much information aa possible. The aerobic dance is as popular in video form as in audio form. That's right, we can stay fit by watching TV. There are numerous exercise shows aired during the weekday, and if we follow the steps of the chariamic celebrity on the screen, we can increase our cardiovascular endurance, stamina, and fitness. We can even improve our knowledge of fitness while reeding a book. We can read and learn basic body principles; we can understand dynamic ness; comprehend overload techniques: explore the ultimate workout. There are unlimited dishes to a diet of exercises. If we must stay indoors this winter, we misfit want to equip ourselves with weights and bare, ropes and springs. We can buy a rowing machine, an exercise bam, a or an exercise bikk i p, . e, We might transpose into fitness nuts and join epa or a club. If an athletic club isn't available in the area, and the Uintah Basin has limited facilities, we can brave the temperatures end exercise outdoors. With the exception of extremely bitter days, we can jog all year round. We can run in the cold without any adverse side affects using few basic precautions: We need to be sure to cover our hands end heads with a warm, breathable material said is probably the An old pair of wool socks is a lightweight end warm covering that is near perfect for protecting our hands while jogging.

We should not wear garments that restrict free movement of the arms or legs or impedes free movement of blood. If the quiet of stinging dry air on winters day bums off frustration, and we don't like jogging, but realize that exercise is good for us, we can hike, skate, sled, and ski. Clearly, numerous activities are available, regardless where we live, to help us keep in shape this winter. And because we realize that physical decadence leads to mental sluggishness, we should stay active this winter.
