FITNESS FAQs
I go to the gym, does it matter if I’m active at work?
We are a society that doesn’t move enough, period. Although it’s great to exercise at the gym during evenings and weekends, it’s important to stay active throughout the whole day. In fact, limited activity throughout the entire day is what hinders fat loss for most of us! Get more active during your workday with these tips.
I don't have much time to exercise, what's the fastest, most effective way I can work out?
The number one reason people tell me why they don’t exercise, is because they believe they don’t have the time. If this is something that you’d say, here is the perfect fifteen minute exercise program for you!
Is a strong core really important? If so, what abdominal exercises should I be doing?
I spend a lot of time working to increase the core strength of my personal training clients. The core is a critical area of the body when focusing on strength training because core strength controls so many of our daily movements. It also improves posture and can help prevent injury. Here are some core exercises for you to try.
Should I exercise while I'm injured?
It can be stressful to figure out when to come back to exercising after you’ve been injured. To be safe, you will often need to make some changes to your fitness routine after an injury, but in most cases you should try to get moving in a healthy way, as soon as possible. Learn more about the tips I use with my personal training clients who have had to leave our training sessions for a period of time due to an injury.
I don't feel pain after my workouts anymore; are they still effective?
Once you’ve been exercising for awhile, feeling no pain afterwards is often a sign that your body is getting stronger. You can handle stress from exercise more efficiently, which is great! Pain isn’t the best indicator of a great workout, but here are some good indicators demonstrating fitness success.
