6 Staples You Need in Your Fitness Training to Maximize Results
There are some staples when it comes to fitness training that are required in order to make progress. Don’t overlook these six key points:
1. Progressive Overload
Progressive overload is the gradual increase of stress placed upon the body during training and without it, you’ll have a difficult time getting stronger.
2. New Stimulus
This is applying a new stress on the muscle in order to create adaptation. In other words, create variety in your workout routine!
3. Unilateral Exercises
By doing a single leg and a single arm exercise, you’ll maintain muscle mass, improve connective tissue strength, and joint integrity. As a result, your stability will improve and you’ll fix imbalances between the left and right sides of the body.
4. Balance
Don’t over prioritize specific movements or certain musculature. Remember, you always need a balance! Yin-Yang. Push-pull. Anterior-Posterior.
5. Periodization
Where does this lead you in 6-12 months? Enough said. Need to have a long term vision.
6. Make it fun!
If you’re not having fun, you won’t be motivated to train! And if you’re not motivated to train, good luck being consistent enough to see results.
