WHOLE: Do not think of exercise as a way to strengthen a group of
muscles. Think of exercise as a nurturing process of our entire bodily
harmony.
If you believe that exercise will keep your heart healthy and
your blood vessels free from cholesterol plaques, what good are these if
others organs are being neglected?
For example, you can have perfectly
healthy heart that might keep beating for another hundred year, however,
bad knees can spoil your whole well being. A global approach to health is
not only a wise choice it is the only choice to make exercise do any good.
No matter what approach you choose to enhance your health, the basic
fundamentals are: feeding, exercise, and rest. Simple, cheap, and
efficacious, but are always overlooked. The best approach for planning
your own health strategy is skepticism of any habit that violates these
instinctual rules.
ORGANISM: In our study of biology, we describe a biological
organism in its simplest form by three constituents: cells, matrix, and
connective tissue. The cells are the privileged constituents that
master life. Without cells there is no organism to speak of. Cells run the
show of life of the organism. The matrix is the medium where the
cells have to inhabit to express its functions. Cells take and give
products to the medium. The medium might be liquid, solid, or gas. The
medium is the highway that the cells use to communicate with the world.
The connective tissue is the constituent of the medium that specialized in
transferring very specific information between the cells and the medium.
Nerves are connective tissue that transmits electric messages. Muscles are
connective tissue that transmits dynamical messages. Bones are connective
tissue that transmits static forces. Blood is a connective tissue that
transmits chemical signals, and so on.
An insight into the psyche:
Our perception that our bodies are created too resilient to ail has its
good and bad sides. Its good side is that it gives us a cause to
live for. Since God must has put that resilience in us to enable us
live. Its downfall is that it overlooks the reality of things.
God also has armed us with knowledge to maintain his creation and beatify
our life with health. 1) Outstanding performance is judged by the ratio of maximum lifting to
the bodyweight of the lifter, provided that lifting starts from the floor
level and ends above the head, without any aiding tools.
2) Separate training of individual muscles is counterproductive and
should be left to remedy individual deficiencies that shows in performing
a full range free style lifting. Bodybuilding exercises should never be
considered fundamental training plan because they lack balance of the
extensor chain of muscles that are crucial to the lifting process.
