Mens Fitness Today


For most men, the urge to maintain their fitness has been a primary motivator for them to remain physically active in sports, weight training or ensuring that they get their weekly quota of work out sessions.

Today more and more men are leaving the comforts of their home and getting into the gym for a well orchestrated and disciplined work out in consultation with the instructor at the gym. 

This trend has also been helped by the fact that many of the gyms have reduced their rates to get in serious members who will continue with them and not drop off midway through.

So how are men working out at these gyms?

Bench pressing and treadmill running along with weight training remain the preferred activities. 

However, cycling and yoga training too are being demanded by many men due to the fact that these activities help them to maintain their body suppleness, helps them meet their cardio workout regimen and also provides them with mental peace.

It must be said here that each individual is different and needs to work out his or own structure of exercises for maintaining their fitness. Men's fitness routines can never be the same for everybody. 

While some would like to just run or take a brisk walk, others would hit the gym to build muscle specifically and concentrate on getting that part right.

Exercise broadly can be split into categories of aerobic, anaerobic and flexibility heads.


The aerobic exercises are for building endurance and stamina through activities like brisk walking, cycling, swimming and running. The anaerobic ones are where you use weights as well as intersperse high intensity training in short bursts to acquire quick muscles.


Flexibility exercises are for building suppleness through stretching.


The crucial aspect is to get the balance right between all these three. There is no great benefit acquired in concentrating on only one of them if you have to maintain your fitness.


Moreover, they are also interlinked and complement each other perfectly. Hence men's fitness programs are often a combination of all the three structured such that equal attention and time are given to each of them.


You need to shed fat and at the same time build muscle so that you do not end up looking too weak. Working out the correct balance between cardio workouts and anaerobic exercises is therefore most essential.


Men's fitness programs are also being structured such that there is no boredom creeping in and members are able to sustain their enthusiasm for a long time.


I utilize a unique system which allows me to do a total workout in just 30 minutes each day. I use 3 minutes for warm up exercises, 7 minutes targeting a different body part each day, and 9 minutes of cardio.
