Lorna Kleidman, Kettlebells Fitness Instructor, Supports Study of Gym-Style Exercise Improving Health and Brain …
Posted: at 11:47 am
A study observing the benefits of Gym-style exercise found that general health in middle age improved significantly as well as brain functionality. Lorna Kleidman, kettlebells fitness instructor and creator of KettleX, supports the studys findings and offers insight in middle age physical fitness.
Bohemia, NY (PRWEB) November 12, 2012
As reported in Medical News Today, the study, conducted by the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI), with the University of Montreal, and the Montreal Geriatric University Institute, found that cognitive ability improved significantly in a group of six middle-aged people with increased cardiovascular risk who followed a four-month program of high intensity interval training combined with resistance training.
In an interview with Medical News Today, Anil Nigam, chief of clinical care at MHI and of the University of Montreal, says, Our participants underwent a battery of cognitive, biological and physiological tests before the program began in order to determine their cognitive functions, body composition, cardiovascular risk, brain oxygenation during exercise and maximal aerobic capacity.
Cognitive tests such memory and thinking exercises were used to determine the range of the studys impact on middle age subjects, reports Medical News Today. According to Medical News Today, VO2max, a measurement of the body's ability to take in, transport, and use oxygen during physical exertion, impacts cognitive function and was considered a contributing factor of the studys results.
Cognitive function, VO2max and brain oxygenation during exercise testing revealed that the participants' cognitive functions had greatly improved thanks to the exercise," stated Nigam. "We also found that their VO2max, insulin sensitivity had increased significantly, in tandem with their score on the cognitive tests and the oxygenation signals in the brain during exercise."
At the end of the program, reports Medical News Today, the study participants also had smaller waists and less fat mass around the trunk of the body.
Lorna Kleidman, creator of the popular kettlebells program KettleX, commented on the study favorably stating, This study attributes to many years of hard work for trainers and their trainees. The middle aged community is always looking for solid evidence to validate that the time and effort they devote to fitness is worthwhile.
Kleidman added that, Fitness is not just a scientific experiment. Getting or staying in shape should be a lifestyle and a passion. The benefits of fitness will always superseed the effects of ignoring the bodys needs.
Lorna Kleidman is a Three-Time World Champion and World Record holder in kettlebell sport and the most decorated kettlebell athlete in the country. She came up with the innovated methods that are used in KettleX as a means to bring the benefits of the bells to everyone in an easy to use, comprehensive and fun format. Lorna has been teaching individuals and group classes for the past six years.

She had been using a Polar Training Watch and had been doing heavy elliptical work (6-7 hours per week), but had gotten off her training program and was dreading starting again.Bought her this because she really likes graphic feedback and goals. She started playing with it while people were over and is delighted with the trophies, video game style feedback, loves developing her island, animals and gardens. It did the trick and made it fun for her to get active and moving. She #39;s doing little up and down the step routines because of the rewards. She laughs out loud with delight when she gets new and unexpected items on her island.I hope the incentives continue to work for her, but it #39;s been well worth the price to get her active and enjoying exercising again. Just got back from taking a long walk around the neighborhood at her suggestion.Technical thoughts. We agree that the Striiv has done a great job of tapping into short term goal setting and rewarding the desire for immediate gratification. My wife is a PhD / professor of Social Work, son is a doctoral student in Nanotechnology / Electrical and Computer Engineering, and we were all marveling at the design and thoughtful programming that has gone into this. He admits he might want one too because while he goes to ...From:margit blantonViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:54More inTravel Events

I began a lifestyle change about a year ago, and I desperately wanted an HRM to better estimate my calories, since I was certain the gym equipment was overestimating my burn. I found this for a great price, and I just had to have it! I ordered it, and I #39;ve used it almost every day since. I love it! It #39;s easy to program, easy to re-program as my weight drops, and it seems to work accurately.I #39;ve used it for walking, doing workout videos (warning: the chest strap will sometimes lose the HR during push ups), elliptical, arc trainer, strength training machines, etc.The only down side is that the touch is sometimes a little too sensitive. When I #39;m strength training with it on, it picks up imaginary touches and loses my HR for a few seconds. Other than that one quirk--it #39;s a fabulous HRM. I #39;m glad I decided on an MIO!" "I really like the heart rate monitor. I usually use it without the chest strap, as the straps tend to aggravate me. I have used the chest strap on cardio days when doing intervals so that I don #39;t have to keep taking my heart rate, but while I #39;m lifting I usually have just the watch part on. This hrm actually has quite a few tools that I haven #39;t used yet.The only disappointment I have is that "FitStik is compatible with any PC" really means "PC" - the program is not compatible with Apple MacBooks or ...From:shana meekerViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:54More inTravel Events

However, 3 days in, I #39;m very pleased. I haven #39;t experienced any inaccurate heart readings. Every reading seems spot on from what I #39;m used to at the gym while on the elliptical or treadmill. I haven #39;t taken the time to experiment with the 5 different kinds of timers, but am very happy with the basic timer...start counting and record my calories burned. Every time I start the timer, it will add on to the previous calorie burn count until I reset it the next morning. All in all it gives me what I feel is a very accurate calorie burn for the day. After the simple input of my meals I have my net gain or loss for the day. Thankfully, so far have all been loses! Add in my average non-active calorie burn for the day (sitting, sleeping, watching tv, reading..approx 2000 calories give or take depending on the person) and I have an excellent sense of how my day went and if I have made way towards my goal.So far this heart rate monitor has given me the accountability I needed. I #39;ve had so many excuses and at this point have none. (New bike, gym pass, new gym clothes, mp3 player, new shoes, supplements). With the watch on my wrist at all times, I #39;m super encouraged to finally use everything I have. Being able to ...From:francisca omalleyViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:54More inEntertainment
