Find the Type of Exercise That Best Suits Your Personality
Recent research at the University of Florida has revealed that the secret of sticking to an exercise programme is to select one that reflects the sort of person you are.
If you are outgoing and like being with people, chances are you get bored quickly when exercising alone. Try aerobics 11. You need interaction, and working out with others motivates you to keep going. Regular classes will improve your ability to take in and use oxygen. As a result, your heart and lungs will become more efficient and you’ll burn lots of calories too.
If you are well-organized and appreciate time to yourself, you’ll prefer to control your own exercise regime. Try gym workouts2. Set challenges that encourage you. Working with weights sculpts3 your muscles, while the cycle, treadmill 34, and rower are great for fat-burning. All are effective in redefining your body shape.
If you push yourself to do well at work, you’ll like competing against others. Try team sports. Match fixtures5 will give you something to aim for. The training sessions will provide all-over6 toning7 and your co-ordination will improve, reducing the risk of musculo-skeletal8 injury.
If things are getting on top of you, choose an exercise routine that releases tension in the body. Try a stretch class. Lengthening 5 your muscles is a great way to relieve stored-up physical and emotional tension. Stretching also makes the body more supple 69, which reduces the risk of injury during activity.

根据自身性格选择健身方法
佛罗里达大学最近的一项研究显示，一个人能否坚持其健身计划取决于它是否适合他的性格。
如果你性格外向，喜欢与人交往，那么独自运动可能会使你很快感到乏味。试一试增氧健身法。你需要与他人互动，与他人一同运动会激励你坚持下去。有规律地参加健身班训练会提高你的吸氧和用氧能力，使你的心肺功能得到提升，同时还能够消耗掉大量的热量。
如果你办事有条不紊，并愿意自己支配时间，那么，你会喜欢选择能够自我调控的锻炼。你可以尝试在健身房进行健身。定下挑战性的目标来激励自己。举重运动能塑造你的肌肉，骑车、步行、划船十分有利于脂肪的消耗。这些对于重塑你的体型都是十分有效的。
如果你对工作很投入的话，你会喜欢与人竞赛。试一试团体运动。球类比赛会使你的锻炼有目标性。训练过程会使你全身得到调整，改善体内各系统之间的协调性，同时减少肌肉和骨骼受伤的风险。
如果你感到紧张、沮丧，不妨选择一项可以缓解体内压力的锻炼计划。试一试参加一个伸展运动的训练班。伸展肌肉是一种缓解身心压力的非常好的办法，还可以使人体更具柔韧性，从而减少锻炼时受伤的危险性。
