  • Train slowly and constantly

Strength and Rehabilitation Programs for Teens

Strength training’s purpose is to enhance strength, coordination, and fitness in a fun, safe, and healthy setting, not to build muscle bulk and turn kids into “body builders.” This is where Melbourne’s Run Ready program comes in. To create a fitness examination, build a safe program tailored to an individual’s needs, and incorporate suitable techniques and approaches for teens, properly trained and qualified coaches and strength training instructors are required.

The beginnings of sports science may be traced back to ancient Greece. Galen, a well-known ancient Greek physician, published 87 extensive writings on how to improve one’s health (correct diet), cardiovascular fitness, and physical strength. Sport science is the application of scientific knowledge to sports activity. Sport science aims to assist athletes improve their performance and endurance while reducing the risk of injury in preparation for events and contests.

Athletes are kept up to speed on latest training regimens, testing, and preparation by sports scientists.

Obesity is one of several problems that teens are facing today. If not addressed, it can lead to more complications with the heart, liver, and other organs. Providing them with ample physical activities like weight training for teens, circuit training, or any exercise, paired with a healthy diet, can help them keep extra weight off and allow them to stay healthy. 

Health and Fitness Melbourne

No. It is not recommended for teens to ingest any kind of supplements during training. A nutritious diet rich in protein, fruits, and vegetables, appropriate hydration, commitment to the exercise program, correct form while exercising, adequate rest, and slow and steady progress are all part of a better overall approach for success.

Active play helps children enhance their body awareness, control, and balance during childhood. Strength training, on the other hand, can be a vital part of an overall fitness regimen as early as age 7 or 8, as long as the child is mature enough to follow directions and can practice good technique and form.

Body weight exercises , rubber tubing, medicine balls, free weights, and weight machines can all be used for strength training. For a balanced fitness program, strength training should be combined with cardiovascular activities like jogging and riding. It’s also important to stress the need of a healthy diet and proper hydration.

There are general things that you must remember when you start your teen’s fitness journey. 

– Consult certified coaches like Run Ready strength and conditioning coaches

– Always warm-up before and cool down after each workout

– Keep workouts light and age-appropriate

– Teach proper technique and supervise

– Take a breather and have fun! 

Strength training is generally considered to be safe for teenagers. Injury rates are low, with the most prevalent causes being a lack of supervision or teaching, incorrect technique, or attempting to lift too much weight. Muscle strengthening also aids in the development of bone strength.

As long as the weight is light enough, children can safely lift adult-size weights. One or two sets of 12 to 15 repetitions are usually sufficient. Weights aren’t the only source of resistance. Other helpful techniques include resistance tubing and body-weight workouts like pushups. It’s really about what the individual can handle, teens come in all different shapes and sizes, every child is looked at on a case by case basis.
