3. FITNESS is part of WELLNESS, the condition of being
physically fit and healthy.
If properly executed, sport is beneficial in the short and
longer terms and in many aspects:
● muscles and bones system (strength, aerobic endurance)
● joints flexibility (range of motion)
● cardiovascular system (heart, blood pressure)
● psychological well-being (stress relief, concentration)
● metabolism (balancing hormones)
● immune system and sleep (lower risks of diseases,
cancers)
1. FEW WORDS ABOUT SPORT...
4. - When training, do not
forget to warm up, and to
cool down at the end.
- Difference between
strength, endurance,
speed.
- Combination with
flexibility and
coordination.
- Effective stimulus and
continuity.
TRAIN
EAT
SLEEP
repeat
- Individualization and
variety of exercises for a
complete training.
- Planification for a better
progression.
- Optimization of the
sessions with suitable
recovery (7-9h of sleep).
- Awareness of the caloric
balance (consumed
calories - used calories).
2. ...AND ITS BASIC RULES
5. Higher level of stress due to the state of alarm (danger,
uncertainty, less freedom): our brain activates a natural
mechanism of “survival” mode, which generates more
cortisol hormone to increase the level of glucose.
Negative effects: damaging health, particularly if
cortisol levels remain high over an extended period
(high blood pressure, rapid weight gain, irritability).
➔ Keep movin’ will definitely help to balance our
metabolism and feel better in our daily routine
because it generates endorphins (happiness
hormone) and reduces cortisol level.
➔ Additionally, regular training will avoid the risk of
injuries after the quarantine period.
3. NEW CONTEXT, NEW CHALLENGE
6. ➔ Beginners: before planning a training the clue is to
integrate a set of active pauses during the day. Put
an alarm every hour, and move in your house few
minutes, stretching areas particularly tight (feel
strain, not pain).
➔ Intermediate and advanced: additionally to active
pauses, follow your habits and adapt your sport
routine to the new context with shorter sessions and
more frequently during the week to constantly
stimulate your metabolism.

4. MY TIPS TO KEEP UP!
WHEN? minimum 3 times per week for significant results + active pauses.
● before eating / after digestion
● early morning in case you struggle to start your day (low concentration)
● approximately 3h before going to bed if you are facing sleeping problems
7. ● With the actual boom of online offers, the
risk is to follow an inappropriate training.
● Being supported by a professional helps to
find your best fitness routine, according
to your needs, adapting to your conditions
at home, your rhythm and energy.
● Besides the contribution to reinforce your
commitment, your personal trainer
organizes and controls the workload
(planification) to reach the objectives.
● Higher security (preventing from injuries)
and efficiency with a clear follow up on the
progression, live feedbacks and
corrections through video call.
5. WHY A PERSONAL TRAINER?
How to stick to your commitment?
1. Find and plan your fitness formula, using
playfulness and creativity, and music!
2. Share you plan with a relative and ask
him/her for a regular check-up.
8. An option against anxiety: short but intense, and a
great mood booster. Here is an example to try at
home:
WARMING UP 5’
HIIT 21’ (4x3’/3’ recovery between serie)
1. (jumping) lunges 1’
