    In fact, there is no universal "best" fitness program. Choose the one that matches your current physical condition, exercise foundation, and core needs, and allows you to persist for a long time, which is the best program for you. Think about it, if you are a mother who has just given birth to a baby for half a year and has almost no exercise habits before, then the high-intensity CrossFit and interval running that others are so hyped about are definitely not as practical as brisk walking downstairs in the community and Kegel exercises at home. When I helped my downstairs neighbor with introductory exercise planning two years ago, she I was anxious to lose weight at first, so I danced Pamela dance with the young people in the gym for a week. My knees hurt so much that I had to go up and down the stairs. Later, I adjusted to walking my baby for half an hour every day after dinner, and squeezing in time to do 15 minutes of postpartum repair exercises at home. In three months, I lost 4% of my body fat, and the backache caused by pregnancy was also relieved a lot.

    If you already have a certain foundation in exercise, your shoulders and neck are stiff when you usually sit in the office, and you also want to expand your social life, the group class-style Les Mills barbell exercises and boxing exercises are very suitable. There is a back-end programmer at the gym I often go to. I used to run 5 kilometers every day, but after three months of running, I said it was boring. I felt anxious when I thought of running, so I accidentally signed up for a boxing group class at a fixed time. Now I go there three times a week. Not only has my body fat dropped by 6 points, but the shoulder and neck pain that used to occur twice a month has not happened for a long time. I have also met several people who are in the same field, and I often make appointments to go hiking in the surrounding areas on weekends.

    As for the much-discussed question of "whether iron-massaging is the best fitness program", both sides are right: some people think that iron-massaging can accurately build muscle, improve basal metabolism, and have a good-looking figure after practicing for a long time. I have an aunt beside me who has been practicing scientific iron-massaging for five or six years. She is almost 60 years old and has higher bone density than many thirty-year-old office workers. She can carry a 20-pound rice upstairs without being out of breath.; Some people say that lifting weights can easily injure joints. Indeed, many novices have seen their waists become protruding after half a year of practicing because of the weight. To put it bluntly, there is no right or wrong in the exercise itself. It all depends on whether you use the right method.

    When it comes to choosing a fitness program, it is really like choosing a restaurant that suits your appetite. No matter how much others praise it, it has three Michelin stars. If you are allergic to it or are not used to it, it is not as good as home-cooked food that suits your taste. If you have basic diseases such as high blood pressure and old joint injuries, it is best to ask the opinions of doctors and rehabilitation therapists before choosing. Don’t blindly follow the Internet celebrity programs. In the end, it will hurt your body and the gain will not be worth the candle.
