With the arrival of spring, many people begin to worry about their physical condition in preparation for summer. However, achieving good physical fitness should not be a seasonal challenge, but rather the result of a consistent training habit. Science has shown that regular exercise not only improves body composition, but also provides benefits at the metabolic, cardiovascular, and mental levels.
The mistake of rushing and the importance of consistency
It is common that, with the arrival of spring, searches for express workouts to achieve quick results increase. However, exercise experts warn that the key to being in shape is not in intensive last-minute efforts, but in building a sustainable habit.
Jesús Blanco, Master Trainer at Brooklyn Fitboxing and specialist in functional training, explains it clearly: "The body needs time to adapt to the stimuli of training. It is not about making a sporadic effort, but about establishing a progressive routine that allows improving physical condition without risk of injury or frustration." He also highlights the importance of training at least twice a week to ensure effective progression. "Training two or three times a week is a minimum recommended frequency to start noticing changes in endurance, strength, and general well-being," adds Blanco.
A dynamic and motivating workout: the key to success
One of the biggest obstacles when training regularly is the lack of motivation or the difficulty in finding an activity that is truly engaging. The key is to choose an activity that is attractive and that combines different stimuli to avoid monotony.
Brooklyn Fitboxing is a perfect example of a workout that combines strength, cardio, and rhythm in a fun and effective way. Through high-intensity sessions with bag hitting to the rhythm of music, a complete workout is achieved that not only improves physical fitness, but also keeps motivation high in each session.
At Brooklyn Fitboxing, each session is designed to help you achieve your goals, whether it's improving your endurance, increasing your strength, or simply feeling more energized. Through a structured methodology and with the support of specialized trainers, each user can progress at their own pace and see real results. The combination of strength and cardio, added to the motivating rhythm of the music, makes each workout a unique experience that drives you to surpass yourself in each session.
Some keys to generating an effective training habit are:
- Define a fixed schedule: Consistency is key to making training a regular part of the routine. Planning sessions as if they were an unmissable appointment helps to consolidate the habit.
- Opt for a dynamic and motivating workout: Monotony is the enemy of habit. Activities that combine strength and cardio with a playful component help to keep motivation high in each session.
- Set achievable goals: Instead of focusing only on aesthetics, it is more effective to set goals such as improving endurance, increasing strength, or achieving greater coordination.
- Train in community: The feeling of belonging to a group motivates you to keep going. Group training, friendly competitions, or gamification of exercise can reinforce consistency.
- Commit to a minimum frequency: To generate results and make exercise a real habit, it is recommended to train at least twice a week.
Scientific support for regular training
Numerous studies have demonstrated the benefits of regular exercise on health and well-being. A study published in The Lancet (2016) concluded that regular physical activity reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases by 35% and premature mortality by 31%. In addition, research from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health (2019) highlighted that training at least 150 minutes a week improves metabolic function and reduces systemic inflammation, key factors for the prevention of chronic diseases.
On the other hand, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends combining strength and aerobic endurance training at least two or three times a week to optimize the physical and psychological benefits of exercise. "It has been shown that regularity in training is the determining factor for obtaining sustainable results over time," says Jesús Blanco.
From spring to summer... and beyond
While spring may be the trigger to start training, the real success lies in maintaining the habit in the long term. It is not just about getting in shape for the summer, but about building a healthy and sustainable routine.
"The greatest benefit is not only arriving physically well in the summer, but feeling more energized, improving your strength, and noticing how exercise positively impacts your day-to-day life," concludes Blanco.
For those looking for a workout that motivates them, challenges them, and helps them generate a sustainable routine, this is the perfect time to start. Brooklyn Fitboxing offers a unique combination of strength, cardio, and rhythm that transforms exercise into an addictive experience. A spring of consistency can make a difference not only in summer, but in the quality of life in the long term.
