Personal training

CONSISTENCY: 4 x per week you need to be training more days out of the week than resting 4/5 is ideal. Less than that can limit your results.

INTENSITY: When you are working out it has to be difficult. The burning is required to see change. You need progression – things should be getting harder. When training at an optimal level your body increases the production of Lactic acid is what creates the “burn”. The lactic acid “the burn” causes the muscle breakdown that triggers the brain to build more muscle. It is the breakdown and healing of the muscle that results is muscle being stronger/tighter muscle.

NUTRITION: You need to eat well. What that means… figure out the best eating plan for you and we recommend leveraging a professional to figure out what that is. How do you educate yourself? Don’t skip breakfast, eat every 3 hours, eat small meals, avoid processed foods, have an adequate amount of protein in your diet (Grams of protein in a day = ½ your body weight), drink water (gallon a day).

SLEEP & RECOVERY: 6-8 hours of sleep a night. Why? 90 minute cycle – don’t break it – explain more. When sleeping your body is working – repairs the most – building muscle tissue, secrete the best hormones – explain more. Without the sleep and recovery can lead to injury, weight gain, inflammation preventing your body from performing.

CUSTOMIZED PROGRAM: Need a program that progresses that changes over time and gets harder over time. 4/5 days a week should be programmed. You should not be doing the same workout – without stimulus there can’t be change. Building a program that is designed to meet your goals and combat any risk factors that can lead to injury like form, imbalances, posture, flexibility.
