Here at Fitness Together, we focus on comprehensive, full-body workouts that fit within 45 minutes. While we might be tempted to cram as much exercise as possible into that time period, that doesn’t mean we want to rush from one exercise to the next! What’s the right balance, and benefit, of resting between exercises? Let’s talk about it!

For those who hav more experience, 3-4 times per week of resistance training along with active rest days is optimal. The increase in resistance training frequency will maximize your opportunity for muscle growth and building strength. On the active rest days, low impact activities are highly encouraged to mitigate soreness and improve your overall fitness.

After the age of 40, without intervention, our muscle power (strength + speed) rapidly drops at a rate 2-3x faster than just strength alone. This decline is most notably observed in sport specific performance. However, the largest impact and the most important reason for power training for older adults lies in fall prevention.

Falls are the leading cause of accidental death over the age of 65. Accidental falls are directly correlated to lower limb extensor power which is the ability to push off the balls of our feet (i.e. shuffling feet instead of pushing off and picking the feet up).

While the morning routines of some content creators are impressive, you don’t necessarily need to go to David-Goggins-style extremes to reap the benefits of a great morning routine. Here, we’ll take a look at some of the most popular social media morning routine staples to help you decide how to fill your precious morning hours

The bottom line: even when it’s tough to be up-front with your personal trainer about your struggles, they can only do their best work if they know what’s going on during the time you’re not in the studio with them.
