Download or read book 15 Minutes to Fitness written by Vincent Ben Bocchicchio and published by SelectBooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you ever feel like a hamster, spinning on a wheel in an endless loop and getting nowhere when it comes to your health and fitness? Are you working out regularly and cutting calories but seeing no real improvements? Does it feel like you will never lose those last 10 or 20 pounds? Or do you feel as if you simply don’t have the time required to lose the fat and get into shape? Imagine if you could have the blueprint for the most efficient form of exercise to keep your body healthy and fit and an eating plan to satisfy hunger, taste, and health. Well, now you can. The best part? It will only require 15 minutes of exercise, twice a week, paired with a controlled-carb diet, and on the average, you will lose 10 pounds of fat within five weeks. It’s hard to believe, but it works—and 15 Minutes to Fitness:Dr. Ben's SMaRT plan for total Fitness will not only show you how to do it but also explain why it works. If this sounds like just another “new exercise secret,” please be assured that it is most certainly not. The foundation of this program is based on years of study, observation, and practice, and it has delivered real, measurable results in the overwhelming majority of those who have tried it. Dr. Vincent “Ben” Bocchicchio has spent the last 40 years in the fitness and health field, and as he approaches 70, people are still shocked to hear that he only spends 14 minutes twice a week on working out. But it’s true. With only 7 percent body fat, he is often asked what the secret is and if there's a “magic bullet.” The answer would be that the magic bullet is knowledge. And now with this book you will understand why genetically our bodies require simple and limited exercise exposure and how you can follow this optimal pattern yourself. The fact is that as humans we are hard-wired to exercise our bodies in very specific ways to reap the highest level of health benefits. I will provide the simple scientific argument for why my combination of high intensity exercise and controlled carbohydrate eating is the most effective means for burning fat, so that you can better understand exactly why this works. Exercise and diet are the two most powerful tools available for attaining high levels of health and function, and 15 Minutes to Fitness will show you just how little it actually takes to achieve a maximum response.

Download or read book Evidence Based Practice in Exercise Science written by William E. Amonette and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exercise science practitioners have access to mountains of research findings, expert opinions, novel techniques, and program plans via blogs, fitness magazines, conference presentations, and peer-reviewed journals. To facilitate effective practice, practitioners must sift through this information and retain only the best evidence to form a sound base of knowledge. Evidence-Based Practice in Exercise Science: The Six-Step Approach equips readers with the basic skills and competencies for discerning the value of scientific research. Using a methodical approach, students and professionals will learn to identify appropriate evidence to support novel interventions and avoid counterproductive or dangerous information to eliminate ineffective exercise options. The authors, well-known advocates in the study and application of evidence-based practice in the field of exercise science, take the five-step method of evidence-based practice that has been established in medicine, adapt it specifically for exercise science, and expand it to embrace individuality in exercise training. The content is accessible for students in a variety of courses in exercise science curricula; those seeking certification through professional organizations; and practitioners in the fields of exercise, nutrition, sports medicine, and sport science. This text is an instruction manual in understanding and applying evidence-based practice. The process is divided into six steps that begin with asking a question and then finding, evaluating, implementing, confirming, and re-evaluating the evidence. Readers of Evidence-Based Practice in Exercise Science will explore these aspects: • The philosophy of science and design of scientific studies • The use of search tools like PubMed and Google Scholar and how to rank or define the strength of the evidence • Practical suggestions for implementing evidence-based practice in the field to better advise and serve athletes, clients, and patients • Case studies that demonstrate realistic scenarios of how the evidence-based process may be used in a variety of sport and exercise settings Each chapter opens with chapter objectives that provide a road map for learning, and a chapter conclusion summarizes main points and ensures understanding. The case studies cover topics including exercise prescription; exercise for special populations; nutrition and supplementation; and exercise devices, equipment, and apparel. Each case presents a realistic scenario that an exercise practitioner may experience, presents background information, formulates a question for investigation, describes a search of the literature, discusses the findings, and provides a recommendation for practice based on the best current evidence. Evidence-Based Practice in Exercise Science is grouped into four sections that assist readers in gaining a better understanding of the evidence-based practice paradigm, learning the step-by-step method, and acquiring experience in the evidence-based approach by working through practical examples using real-world scenarios. Part I offers foundational knowledge of evidence-based practice in exercise sciences. Part II introduces the six-step method of evidence-based practice with chapters that explore each step of the process in depth. Part III presents 16 case studies grouped into chapters by general topics. Part IV concludes the text with chapters on disseminating and sharing knowledge and the future of evidence-based practice in exercise science. By understanding the concepts and process of evidence-based practice, current and future sport, exercise, and health professionals will prescribe individualized programs and treatments that improve athletic performance and lead individuals toward better health. Embracing evidence-based practice will ultimately advance the field and produce optimal outcomes for clients, patients, and athletes.
