Why And How Do You Work Out?

3/12/2018

Work out for what? Health... Mental clarity... Stress relief... Strength... Endurance... Performance... Weight loss...
Your motivations for working out may vary and so should your approach. There’s levels to this—and, no, one size does not fit all. As a personal trainer, my job is to help my clients reach their goals in the healthiest way possible that adequately challenges your mind & body. The approach and modality often changes given each individual's progress and overall responsiveness to diet and exercise. Training for a marathon is different from preparing for a triathlon, which varies from the cardiovascular endurance training needed to climb Machu Pichu with confidence, and is a stark contrast to the explosive training required for an obstacle course race, or the high intensity training one might do for weight loss benefits. The word EXERCISE is a broad term that has specific purposes that are most effective when they are truly understood and applied accordingly. If breaking it down by application and finding a routine or fitness professional is too tough, then just move! Run, walk, stretch, do sit-ups, but just move and stay healthy!
