Every single day we are bombarded with information on what is good for us, things to avoid, quick remedies for what ails you and so forth. One day you can read that strength training is the real fountain of youth and on the next read that it causes injuries and should be avoided. There are dozens of different training methods; functional training, core training, bodybuilding, pilates, power lifting, plyometrics, yoga, dynamic stretching, just to name a few. Then there is super slow, super fast, isometric, isokinetic, starting to get the picture.
Which method is the best, which one is the worst, I will clarify it for you. NONE. I have combined my 25 years of knowledge and experience as a strength and conditioning coach and as a licensed athletic trainer to develop a philosophy that eliminates over-training and boredom. It will address any of your weaknesses and further enhance your strengths. It will combine multiple aspects of fitness and conditioning. From Olympic athletes to seniors, beginners to bodybuilders this program is appropriate for everyone.
Weight training has always had stereotypes to breakthrough. However research shows that weight lifters were significantly faster than non-weight lifters. Today, weight training is credited with preventing injuries, fat loss, improving joint stability and most importantly improving the activities of daily life. From injury rehabilitation to adolescents, special populations to the elderly everyone benefits from weightlifting.
Our bodies are very adept at accommodating to exercise, and resistance. In fact, the harder you train the more it responds. If compared to any machine, the human body is the only thing that does not break down the harder it is worked- it grows bigger, faster, and stronger! Traditionally, there are three basic ways to alter an exercise program, intensity, frequency, and duration. These alterations are done in six to eight week intervals. I have developed a totally new program, that not only incorporates these basic alterations but also changes the style and exercises themselves.
A major downfall with following only one specific training protocol or style is that some aspect or fitness is always neglected. How many power lifters have had rotator cuff injuries, joint problems, and or back surgery from repeated heavy loads. Pilates is great for core and flexibility, but to really burn calories and build lean muscle, hit the weights.
My fitness program cycles strength, power, hypertrophy and recovery workouts to attain results you didn’t think possible. That in a nut shell is Structured Anarchy!
