Different Reasons for Wanting to Target Areas
Frustration at not being able to tone or strengthen certain areas of the body – Some people try very hard to tone and strengthen all areas of their body, but often find one area they’re unable to affect. This can be determined by genetic factors but some people also find it difficult to activate muscles in certain areas
Getting beach and wedding ready – Most of us want to look our best when we’re going to be most on display. It’s human nature. However, this can lead to extreme dieting and over-training over short periods of time.
Increased confidence – Being unable to tone those annoying parts of the body that never seem to respond to our efforts, can decrease our confidence. It can also make buying certain items of clothing difficult. It’s not always wanting to look like a ‘Hollywood or Bollywood Star’ – it’s simply wanting to be confident and comfortable in our body.
Preventing injury – Targeting specific areas of the body can help prevent injury. Weaker muscle groups are more likely to strain or tear. Strengthening the muscle groups in that area reduces that risk
Rehabilitating from injury – After a bad injury or surgery, many people have followed specific Physiotherapy exercises to enable them to function to a base standard. However, it hasn’t allowed them to either become fully functional or progress in their fitness journey.
One example of this would be someone who has suffered an Achilles injury. The initial exercises have allowed them to walk without a boot or crutches, but the leg muscles have become weakened. Targeting the muscles around the Achilles could allow full functioning, but it could also allow a return to sport or a full exercise regime.
