What Is the Awesome Foursome? |
"The Awesome Foursome is not a short-term program for losing weight or sculpting your body. It’s a lifestyle. If you make a commitment to incorporate sensible eating, aerobic exercise, weight training and stretching into your lifestyle—for the rest of your life—you will attain more than a better physique. You will improve your overall health and enjoy a better quality of life." Dr. Irwin Schwartz, Ed.D., CSCS
- Sensible Eating Lifestyle A sensible eating lifestyle focuses on health, not weight.
- Cardiovascular Endurance Training Regular aerobic exercise increases the efficiency of your cardiovascular system, enabling you to engage in physical activity for longer periods of time without becoming fatigued.
- Muscle Strength and Endurance Training Weight training will not only improve your performance in sports and other physical activities, but it will also make your daily activities easier and reduce your risk of injury.
- Static Stretching for Flexibility Engaging in static stretching will enhance your flexibility and help you avoid injury from physical activity as well as everyday movements.
