What are 3D Exercises?

3D Exercise is a method of exercise that strives to work your body in a natural way and includes range of motion in all directions similar to the motions of everyday life. This method takes these everyday movements and combines them with weights and increased intensity to allow for more balanced muscle building and increase metabolism.
These 3D workouts claim to be more effective than traditional methods of repetitive weight lifting or cardio exercise. They even claim to boost metabolism which decreases the need for strict dieting or long exercise sessions. The term "3D" refers to the dimensions of movement including side to side (abduction/adduction) movement, forward and backward (flexion/extension) movement and rotational movement.
Why do 3D Exercises?
1) You will create ab stability by doing exercises that mimic everyday tasks
2) You will work at having systemic fat loss which increases ab muscle appearance
3) You will work the muscles in a balanced way for a symmetrical appearance
4) You will gain muscle which increases your metabolism to burn calories after you workout
5) You will activate the more muscle fibers (types and groups) for each exercise.
6) It will take less time because you are using more muscles during each movement

Metabolism and Weight Loss

What determines how much energy we use?
-Calories in (food consumed)
-Calories out (exercise and activity level)
-Resting Metabolic Rate (energy needed just to survive)
How can you change your metabolic rate?
FOOD AND DRINK RELATED
---Eat breakfast (Sleep lowers your metabolism, food boosts it back up)
---Eat frequently (combine protein, carbs and fats each time)
---Eat before you feel hungry (once you are hungry it will take more to satisfy you)
---Limit your eating before bed (eat most of your food earlier in the day)
---Grean Tea (shows a slight increase in metabolic rate)
---Hot Peppers (shows a slight increase in metabolic rate)
---Drink Water (Helps your body maintain homeostasis and keep you in good shape)
---Ice your Drink (heating the liquid burns more calories)
---Take Supplements (B complex, Vitamin C, Calcium, all help your metabolism)
---Eat Fresh Produce (Packed with fiber to aid in digestion)
ACTIVITY RELATED
---Exercise (any activity boosts your metabolic rate)
---Build muscles (muscles burn fat even at rest)
---Cool Down or Heat Up (body uses energy to maintain internal temp)
---Move and Fidget (Move around every couple hours at least)
Best ways to increase metabolism
---Exercise with strength training to build muscle
---Eat balanced healthy meals throughout the day
What is your metabolism?

Your metabolism is the source of energy for all your bodily needs based on chemical reactions in your body. This energy can be used to repair the body, digest food, move muscles, send neural impulses and much more. You wouldn't be able to sit there and read this article without your metabolism. And as you can see by the chart above there are a lot of interacting pathways that create your metabolism. However the basic concept is the release and using of energy.
There are two processes that occur to enable your metabolism.
Catabolism (release energy): break down organic material (with enzymes) to make energy
------Aerobic Respiration: Uses Oxygen to produce more energy
------Fermentation: Creates a small amount of energy without oxygen
Anabolism (consume energy): take this energy to construct necessary cell material
-----First, create precursor elements to the necessary molecule
-----Second, activated using energy from catabolism
-----Third, build molecule from precursor elements
Each macromolecule (protein, lipid (fats), carbohydrates, nucleic acid (DNA/RNA)) has their own metabolic pathway to create and dismantle the molecules into different forms.
Now imagine that your metabolism is directly in your control. You can use as much or as little energy you want and control which tasks use this energy.

- Wow! Fascinating lens. I think I'm going to try some of these. I'm particularly interested in the range-of-motion exercises. I don't need to lose weight, but I'm concerned about range of motion as I get older!
