Blog

If you are getting a new husky puppy, you need to get ready for some exercise. This is because huskies are very active dogs and need over 2 hours of exercise daily. If you do not get them the right amount of activity, they will not act well at home and may even get into a lot of mischief. This exercise means you will be taking a lot of walks, runs, hiking, swimming, and more. Keep reading so you will be ready for your new puppy.

Aerobics

Because your husky will likely run on walks, you need to build up your stamina so that you can keep up with it. One way to do this is by doing aerobics. Aerobics works great as you move constantly when doing this exercise, which is not only great for your heart but also will help you run much longer. You can join a gym and take aerobics classes. There are tapes that you can purchase that you can do the aerobics along with an instructor. There are a variety of aerobic exercises you can find online also.

Aerobics also lowers your cholesterol, lowers your blood pressure, helps improve your immune system, and reduces your chances of getting diabetes due to being overweight.

If you need to lose weight, aerobic exercise is a great way to do it. This is because you burn calories very quickly and will notice your weight coming off you quick. Doing aerobics also tones up all your muscles.

Strength Training

A husky is a medium-sized dog, but they are strong. If you are not strong yourself, you may find it difficult to keep a tight hold on their leash if they start running too fast for you. To help with this problem you can do strength training.

Instructors at gyms can teach you how to do strength training. They also have the right equipment at the gym for you to use. Besides equipment part of strength training involves using weights, sandbags, resistance bands, TRX, body bars, and more.

Talk with the trainer about strengthening your arms and legs and if they can set you up with the right type of exercises.

See your doctor before you start any type of exercise routine. This will ensure that you will not hurt yourself. For example, if your heart is not in good shape you would have to start out slower and move your way up. Contact a company like California Family Fitness for more information and assistance.
