Exercise Essentials

here are the five things you can’t do without…

1. Strength Training- a must for building and maintaining lean tissue and support increases in metabolism

2. Interval Cardio – Excellent training option especially when limited on training time. Intervals are a                            great way to blast fat and bump up the intensity for maximum results

3. Clean eating meal plan – To achieve optimal body composition results, an optimal performance nutrition plan is a must. When desiring to get super lean, fine tuning of food options, macronutrients, fiber, and essential fats is necessary.

4. Motivation – you must find ways to keep yourself motivated to put maximum effort into your training program, avoid boredom, and boost the intensity. An experienced personal trainer who can motivate you is sure to help with this need.

5. Changing up your exercise program specs regularly— You must change up your exercise variables regularly to avoid stagnation and push through plateaus to maximize results. Every 4 weeks is a great time frame to revamp your strength and cardio plan.

Tip: Keep a Food Log

Keeping a food log can help you fine tune your meal plan, identify unhealthy options as well as give you a better view of your macronutrient intake. Once my clients can see their food menu options in writing with specific calories and macronutrients, it opens there eyes to certain unhealthy food options that they previously thought were good for them. It helps to do your homework in logging foods especially if you are eating out alot. Often people are consuming the whole meal as ordered which typically amounts to 2 or more servings when they think they are consuming only 1 serving. Once people realize some of these factors, it is a bit more realistic for them to change up their meal plan and eating habits. Keeping a food log for a week can give you a great view of a days worth of calories, macronutrients, and even micronutrients like vitamins and minerals.
