SAFET Y TIPS FOR HOME WORKOUTS The country may have come out of Covid-19 lockdown but many amateur athletes are still practising social distancing when it comes to training. Reebok athlete and coach, Zeke Grove offers these tips for those working out at home.
Fitness STEP UP The oft said adage, ‘if the shoe fits, wear it’ can apply to many situations but with Reebok’s launch of a new performance shoe, the Nano X, this saying now has special significance for the fitness community. Marking its 10th anniversary, Reebok has come up with a versatile shoe to suit various workout styles. Catering for the needs of part-time engagers through to fitness veterans, the Nano X can be used for high intensity interval training (HIIT) through to running, weight lifting and more – it’s one shoe for all.
• Don’t try anything new – If you have never tried intense weightlifting, now isn’t the time to start. Stick to what you know and focus on advancing exercises you are familiar with.
Nano X (RRP $210) comes in nine contemporary colourways and enhanced features include: • Elevated tech: Lightweight, premium upper material with Flexweave provides durability and breathability. • Enhanced comfort: High-density foam collar construction dials up overall performance comfort. • Superior stability: Traction on sole provides surefooted feel for a range of movements. • Runnability: Decoupled midsole provides a smoother stride and added cushioning.
If you do get hurt – Don’t forget to rest, ice, compress, elevate, stabilise and seek professional advice.
• Evaluate your space – Make sure your environment is clear of any obstructions you could accidentally bump into and give yourself enough room to complete your exercises. If you are tight on space, stick to some simple exercises you can perform on a mat such as push ups, planks and crunches. • Ensure you are wearing the right shoes – Whether you are into HIIT, running or competitive training, it is important to have a shoe which fits properly and is designed to support that particular exercise. Injury caused
by inappropriate shoes can needlessly derail fitness goals. The Reebok Nano X has enhanced technology, stability, runnability and high density foam. • Don’t overdo it – With time on your hands at home, don't be tempted to work out harder than usual. Listen to your body and incorporate recovery into your fitness routine. Working out in short bursts of 10 to 15 minutes, two to three times a day, will keep you active without overdoing it.
