You train for the body you want.
It’s that simple.
I was a runner on the left, only did Bodypump classes and hours of hours on the cardio machines.
This left me with a skinny straight stick shape lacking muscle and tone.
Look at your athletes, what training do they do, what shape do they have. It’s not rocket science.
Yes cardio for heart health is important and it has its place but overdoing it with excessive amounts and you will waste away muscle, and that is more important to maintain to support the rest of your body’s hormones and functions.
We have many study’s supporting this, showing that shorter intense cardio is more beneficial the older we get. Especially for us women!
Combined with a proper (and I say proper) strength training program and your on to a winner!
Yes gym training can be boring/ repetitive and even I find myself resorting to the odd Pilates or Hyrox class but aslong as strength training remains the priority then we can guarantee long term success!
Train for the body you want to have long term!
Health is wealth!
