How Hard Should I Train?

QUESTION:

Does a workout need to be an hour long to be effective?

ANSWER:

No, it really doesn't. As women get older, training hard for a whole hour can be intimidating, exhausting and counterproductive for many. Shorter workouts with peaks of high intensity provide a strong stimulus for muscle growth without stressing and exhausting our internal system.


Midlife is the time in life when women need to train smarter and not harder. Weight loss need not be a battle of wills, it may simply be time to reevaluate the methods you are using to see if they are giving health and wellness or taking it away.

I am here to guide you towards a more effective path that will see you reach your health, wellness and body composition goals over the longterm. This is not a quick fix or a 12 week plan, this is learning a new way to live for the rest of your life!
