  • Underpants, preferably vibrantly colored. It's even best if there's a photo of one of their beloved cartoon characters on them. Diaper or training underpants can be a practical solution for any trips out but make sure you treat them as real pants not diapers;
  • a wall chart and stickers.

Take them to the potty and have them sit on it for two or three minutes. Give them fresh pants to put on. At short intervals take them back to the potty for a total of ten times. This will help to build muscle memory. Very soon they will urinate in the potty.

A minuscule food for thought. It is not just what you say, it's how you say it. This is truly true when it comes to teaching a toddler new skills.

5 Components of physical Fitness

Physical fitness is the capability to function effectively throughout your workday, accomplish your usual other activities and still have sufficient energy left over to cope any extra stresses or emergencies which may arise.

The components of corporal fitness are:

Strength Training

* Cardiorespiratory (Cr) endurance - the efficiency with which the body delivers oxygen and nutrients needed for muscular performance and transports waste products from the cells.

5 Components of physical Fitness

* Muscular strength - the greatest amount of force a muscle or muscle group can exert in a single effort.

* Muscular endurance - the capability of a muscle or muscle group to accomplish repeated movements with a sub-maximal force for extended periods of times.

* Flexibility - the capability to move the joints or any group of joints through an entire, normal range of motion.

* Body composition - the division of body fat a person has in comparison to his or her total body mass.

Improving the first three components of fitness listed above will have a distinct impact on body aggregate and will result in less fat. Immoderate body fat detracts from the other fitness components, reduces performance, detracts from appearance, and negatively affects your health.

Factors such as speed, agility, muscle power, eye-hand coordination, and eye-foot coordination are classified as components of "motor" fitness. These factors most work on your athletic ability. Acceptable training can enhance these factors within the limits of your potential. A sensible weight loss and fitness schedule seeks to enhance or voice all the components of corporal and motor fitness through sound, progressive, mission definite corporal training.

Principles of Exercise

Adherence to distinct basic exercise theory is foremost for developing an sufficient program. The same theory of exercise apply to everybody at all levels of corporal training, from the Olympic-caliber athlete to the weekend jogger.

These basic theory of exercise must be followed.

Regularity

To accomplish a training effect, you must exercise often. You should exercise each of the first four fitness components at least three times a week. Infrequent exercise can do more harm than good. Regularity is also foremost in resting, sleeping, and following a sensible diet.

Progression

The intensity (how hard) and/or period (how long) of exercise must moderately increase to enhance the level of fitness.

Balance

To be effective, a schedule should comprise activities that address all the fitness components, since overemphasizing any one of them may hurt the others.

Variety

Providing a range of activities reduces boredom and increases motivation and progress.

Specificity

Training must be geared toward definite goals. For example, citizen come to be better runners if their training emphasizes running. Although swimming is great exercise, it does not enhance a 2-mile-run time as much as a running schedule does.

Recovery

A hard day of training for a given component of fitness should be followed by an easier training day or rest day for that component and/or muscle group(s) to help permit recovery. Another way to allow saving is to alternate the muscle groups exercised every other day, especially when training for strength and/or muscle endurance.

Overload

The work load of each exercise session must exceed the normal demands located on the body in order to bring about a training effect.
