Georgia Personal Training is Roswell’s Best Personal Training Center
Finding the proper mix of Cardio and Weightlifting is tricky or at least I find it to be. Also, as you get older and metabolism slows, it becomes difficult to keep weight in control. Years ago, and I forget where I heard it, muscle weighs more than fat. Therefore, in my younger days gaining weight seemed like it was okay as I was gaining muscle. At mature ages that rational is not as plausible it seems. The Professional Team at Georgia Personal Training evaluates each and every client through consultation. Then during workout sessions, it can be determined if alterations in routines need to be changed up in order to keep the optimum mix of Cardio and Weightlifting.
If you look at long distance runners, those that run 10+ miles at a time, they are skinny. That is because the long endurance running actually burns more calories than a person consumes. I remember in high school cross country how true that was. Instead of trying to lose weight, most of us wanted to gain weight fearing that we looked emaciated and weak. However, there just was no way to gain weight when running so many miles each day.
Our Georgia Personal Training team understands the science behind Cardio, Weightlifting and Weight Control. For the majority of us, our busy schedules do not permit us to take a 10-mile run daily. Matt Lein, who co-owns GPT with his wife Brandi, has researched the topic and promotes a solution to this issue below:
Here is my solution. I have found a number of cardio focused training routines that I and my training clients can do in less than 1 hour. These routines are designed to be done at a higher intensity level. The idea is to train at a heart rate in excess of 130 – 135 beats per minute.
You may hear some describe this type of activity as anaerobic in nature. The word anaerobic simply means we are attempting to train at a heart rate that involves strengthening our muscles by forcing them to work hard for a brief period of time. In effect, we are teaching our muscles to work hard, while in a state of reduced oxygen levels.
These high intensity workouts involve short burst activity. Meaning, we are not trying to pass out. We are simply pushing our heart rate up, over a short burst of activity, then allowing a period of short rest in between sets. This short burst activity actually causes the body to burn more calories. Not only does the body burn more fuel, but it also continues to burn fuel long after the workout has ended.
The net effect for me has been the ability to maintain a high level of physical fitness, while keeping my body toned and my weight in check. Each time I do my cardio boxing routine, I walk away from that high intensity workout feeling thirsty, not hungry. My body burns through more calories than I generally have taken in that day, yet all I want is fluid at the end of the activity, versus feeling like I need to fuel up by eating more solid food.
This type of workout is something that you really need to build up to. There aren’t many folks that I have met who can step into the gym and immediately do these workouts. For our training clients, we build them up to these workouts over time. In fact, we start by assessing the skill levels of each individual personal training client who comes into Georgia Personal Training. Then we craft an individual workout plan that will help them to begin heading down the path to a more toned and sculptured physique.
We monitor their improvements and slowly incorporate ever increasing levels of high intensity cardio activity into their routines. Most find that having a personal trainer is a great way to go. It is far better than a diet plan. Your trainer actually helps you to build the knowledge and the skills to know how to train, how and what to eat and how to maintain your weight through a lifelong approach.
The bottom line is that the safest and most effective way to find the right workout to meet you needs and conditioning is to consult with a certified professional trainer. The team at GPT is the best in Atlanta and would be honored to spend time getting to know you and finding the perfect exercise routine for you!
