How Much Exercise Is Too Much? + Special Offers
We all understand that when it comes to medicine, more isn’t better.
There’s a minimum effective dose.
In other words, if two Tylenol are sufficient to get rid of your headache, taking a third isn’t going to get rid of your headache more.
And taking too much medication can have some negative consequences.
Believe it or not, it’s the same with exercise.
Don’t get stuck in an “all-or-nothing” mindset.
Resist the urge to worship at the false altar of “more is better.”
When it comes to your strength & conditioning program, more isn’t better.
Better is better.
For example, a lot of people just starting a fitness program come out like gangbusters and try to hit 5 or 6 workouts a week. Oftentimes, they’ll become so sore, tired and beat up that they need a few days off. A few days turn into a week, which turns into two … and the next thing you know, they’re back to being inactive again.
Second, some people have developed a belief that a full-blown gym workout is the only effective way to exercise. But the pandemic taught us this isn’t true, right? Home workouts were better than no workouts … and that’s still true. So if you get stuck late at work or in traffic and can’t make it to the gym, don’t head straight for the couch. Put your gym clothes on when you get home and follow a basic bodyweight workout for 15 or 20 minutes.
So … more isn’t necessarily better than some … but some is better than none :-)
(I’d be happy to send you a routine, if you like. Just reply back and I’ll send it your way.)
Another important thing to remember about exercise is that you don’t need elaborate, complicated exercises to experience the benefits. Over the course of the week, if you’re doing some type of squatting, hinging, lunging, pushing, pulling and carrying, you’re doing everything you need to improve your body and health.
So when it comes to exercise, don’t overcomplicate things. Don’t overdo it, and don’t under-do it. And remember, the basics are best.
We have a new program that will make strength training simple in 3 to 5 sessions. You will get a program designed specifically for you. Your goals, busy schedule, previous injuries, equipment you have access to, everything.
We make sure your technique is perfect and you can even video your trainer with your phone as they take you through your program! We make sure you have a program you can use for life!
Our goal is to make you independent, not dependent, on us. Of course we will add enough value with this program so you end up coming back to us at some point :)
This is NOT for our circuit training style sessions! We do this program in our 1 on 1, or in some cases, our semi private style training.
