FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Vivafit
1. How much time per week do I need
to exercise in order to achieve results?
Research shows that great gains from fitness can be achieved in sessions of 30 minutes, three times a week. At Vivafit, this includes warm-ups and cool-downs, in accordance with the benefits in strength and at a cardiovascular level allocated by the American College of Sports Medicine.
2. I want to lose weight and tone up, can Vivafit help me?
Of course!! Because Vivafit combines strength and cardiovascular workouts in the same proportion, so the results are drastically higher than those of other exercise systems.
3. How can Vivafit accommodate people with different levels of training?
Vivafit uses machines that function according to the same principle as swimming and hydro-gymnastics. The faster you move, the greater the resistance. People who are in shape move more quickly, people with less training move more slowly. The machines function through pushing and pulling, which involves a greater quantity of muscles during the same exercise, which allows more calories to be burned, without increasing the work of just one group of muscles, such as in weight-training.
4. I have already lost weight quickly with diets. Is this possible at Vivafit as well?
Yes, together with a balanced diet. The most important thing is that what you lose is fat. Diets cause the loss of muscle tissue, which diminishes your metabolism.
Vivafit increases your muscle mass, which translates into greater muscular firmness and toning. Because muscle occupies much less space than fat, people have a slimmer silhouette, and the best of all is that metabolism increases.
Each gram of fat substituted by muscle increases the quantity of calories burned by 50 calories per day, at rest. The loss of muscle due to diets causes exactly the opposite effect, which is why people gain more weight after diets.
5. I tried aerobics but I couldn’t manage the rhythm and I didn’t have good enough coordination. Is Vivafit very difficult to learn?
As simple as sitting down on a
chair and moving, exercise takes place.
Your exercise is at your own pace.
6. If I do exercise at Vivafit, do I need any other type of exercise?
No. Vivafit offers a complete workout for your entire body.
7. Is Vivafit equipment safe?
We will teach you to control your cardiac rhythm, in order to have a safe cardiac workout. There is no risk for ligaments and muscles, because the resistance is according to your strength and stops when you stop.
8. And if the exercise is always the same, will I not get bored?
With the Vivafit system, various types of schemes have been foreseen. This allows different workouts every day of the week. The music is also changed regularly. The classes may be led by different instructors, and different recordings provide different periods for a change of season.
9. I tried workouts to lose weight and I experienced a lot of pain. Will this happen again?
Experiencing pain is very rare with the Vivafit system, due to the double positive resistance. Simply because the muscles always contract against the resistance and never stretch, which is often what provokes pain.
10. How do I know if I am doing lots of exercise or very little exercise?
By the degree of difficulty. Your body knows how much you can impose on it. We teach you to recognise when you are in your workout zone by the perception of your training level and your cardiac rhythm.
