Strength Training Made Simple
WHY GAIN MUSCLE?
Strength training is a great way to boost your metabolism and help you achieve your healthy weight goals. Strength training builds muscle mass and because muscle burns more calories at rest than fat, it helps increase your resting metabolic rate (how many calories your body burns at rest). The higher your resting metabolic rate is, the more you can eat during the day without gaining weight, and who wouldn’t want that?!
DURING YOUR VISIT, EXPECT:
A personalized exercise plan to improve energy, mental wellbeing, and healthy weight goals.
Assessment of movement and posture.
Review of health history.
A take home plan to continue to train on your own.
Health benefits of exercise
Aerobic exercise helps burn calories and raises your metabolism even after you have stopped exercising. Exercise also helps improve moods and depression, decrease the risk of dementia, reduces your risk of breast cancer or breast cancer recurrence, decreases the risk of diabetes, and prevents cardiovascular disease like heart attack and/or stroke. Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of women?
