The reality is things happen, kids don’t feel good, work stuff pops up and I sometimes just don’t have the time. So over the years I’ve learned to be a little INVENTIVE… Try these 4 exercises out for size. Do what you can and if you can do more, DO MORE!

Killing yourself in the gym DOES NOT necessarily mean you’ll reach your fitness goals. Here’s an easy breakdown of how you can use your own bodies energy systems to train for the right goals!

To maximize power: 30-50 sec work (ex. 400m sprints, sled pushes) at a moderate intensity with enough rest for full recovery. To maximize capacity: 60-90 sec work (ex. 400m sprints) with a moderate intensity, shorter rest. Aerobic: Low power output, very high capacity. Long term,  20-60 mins of continuous movement. To begin, find your max heart rate.
