New Heartrate tracking system at cutting edge fitness of boca raton

2011-09-07T05:08:00.000-07:00

Our Polar heart rate tracking is the most technologically advanced system available on the market and is currently being utilized by professional athletic programs and US Olympic teams. Heart rate monitoring allows athletes to achieve optimal results while reducing the risk of injury or over-training .

Class participants will wear custom heart rate monitors and have their workout recorded live while being coached through the various heart rate zones. Instant feedback, visual guidance, and measured progress will be displayed on our 7-0" movie screen so that participants can adjust their work load in real time. This takes the guessing out of your work out and directs you through a personally tailored workout tracking your heart rate and calories.

Why is heart rate monitoring so important for group classes boca raton or personal training boca raton ?

When it comes to weight loss the first thing many people think about is that they have to do tons of cardio. Many people spend hour after hours counting the calories burned on their treadmill. Others are using a heart rate monitor to stay in their fat burning zone for hours hoping the fat will burn away. One of the number one questions I get is "I do 6 hours of cardio a week and can't lose a pound." With proper heart rate monitor training, a person can optimize their workout to raise their metabolism and burn more fat not just during your workout, but all day long.

To understand heart rate training, we first have to understand how our bodies produce energy. We have two major processes that produce energy within our bodies. First, our aerobic metabolism utilizes oxygen combined with carbs and fat to produce our long lasting energy and the energy you are using to read this article. Your second way you produce energy is anaerobically. Your anaerobic metabolism creates energy for short durations of intense activity. You're only source of energy for your anaerobic metabolism is carbohydrates in your blood stream or carbs stored in your muscle cells. So aerobic burns fat and carbs, and anaerobic burns carbs only.

Proper heart rate training at Cutting Edge Fitness has three distinct training zones each designed to challenge your metabolism to become faster and more efficient which leads to burning more fat. Most people only exercise in one of them. When we train in the same zone everyday our body adapts to that workout and we stop getting the weight loss and fat loss we are after. To optimize your fat burning results we want to do each zone's workout once a week which is not available at any other gym in Boca Raton.

To create your optimal fat burning heart rate zones we have to find your anaerobic threshold. Your anaerobic threshold is the point at which your physical activity becomes so intense that your body is unable to produce enough energy aerobically. Your anaerobic metabolism kicks in to produce more energy to continue the activity. During intense cardio workouts both your aerobic and anaerobic metabolisms are producing energy to keep you moving.

Check out the below article about Boca's Hottest new fitness concept. Cutting Edge Fitness features Boca Raton's best Pilates, Spinning, Aerobics, and cardio classes all under one roof.

Family Fitness
Chelsea Greenwood

Trainer Dorene Hofberg has been in the fitness industry for 30 years, so her daughter, Brooke Friedman-Meltzer, grew up with fitness on the brain. After years of talking about going into business together, the mother-daughter team opened Cutting Edge Fitness (21184 Saint Andrews Blvd., 561/368-6588) in fall 2008.
“We are not only mother and daughter, we’re best friends,” says Friedman-Meltzer. “We always said we wanted to make a difference and help people.”
After attending workshops and doing research around the country, the duo decided to create a class-centric fitness studio without membership fees. They found a spot in Boca Raton, gutted it and created three studios for Pilates, Spinning and cardio/functional training. Then, Friedman-Meltzer, an interior designer, gave the space an industrial-modern makeover. In addition to accents like steel-bead curtains and exposed ductwork, the studio features details meant to enliven the exercise experience, such as disco balls and a large video projection screen (in the Spinning room).
“Your body doesn’t get bored,” says Friedman-Meltzer.
Her mother chimes in: “And your mind doesn’t get bored.”
Friedman-Meltzer and Hofberg encourage customers to alternate among disciplines—a practice they call “fusion”—to get a comprehensive workout, and small class sizes offer the attention of personal training without the cost.
“Boutique is back,” says Friedman-Meltzer. “People get intimidated when they go into a big gym. We want to create a feeling of warmth and personalization.”

Summer Healthy Eating Tips

2009-06-09T20:24:00.001-07:00

Healthy Eating Tips for the Summer

Summer may bring to mind outdoor picnics with hot dogs and chips, but the season also provides the perfect opportunity to plan delicious, healthy meals.-- Be meat savvy. Choose lean cuts of beef, including round, sirloin and loin cuts. Tenderize the meat to increase flavor and texture without adding fat. Marinate in salsa, low-calorie salad dressing, wine or citrus juices.Grilled chicken breasts, turkey tenders and lamb kabobs also make great alternatives to high-sodium hot dogs and hamburgers.-- Aim for variety. Kick up the health factor of grilling with vegetables and fruits. Cooking vegetables on the grill adds flavor. Make kabobs with fruit and grill on low heat until the fruit is hot and slightly golden. These healthy snacks also make consuming the recommended daily fruit and vegetable intake simple.-- Don't forget to stay hydrated. Summer heat can cause dehydration. Water is the best option when temperatures soar, but you can add slices of lemons or strawberries for natural flavor.
-- Make eating healthy a priority this summer by focusing on simple snacks that don't take much prep work. Keep fresh berries in the refrigerator to add to salads, yogurt and ice creams. Wash fresh green beans to dip in yogurt or low-fat cottage cheese. Keep healthy extras, like lettuce and tomatoes, in your produce bin. Try homemade popsicles by freezing 100 percent juice. Cut up raw vegetables to serve with low-fat dips.

Remember to eat small snacks in between meals so that you do not over eat during meal times. These small snacks keep your metabolism going and help keep up energy levels throughout the day.
