My Style as a Strength & Conditioning CoachWhat does a healthy fitness life for you look like? We need to find your style of working out!  Is it weightlifting, kettlebells, or maybe bodyweight conditioning?  Most beginners seem to take to bodybuilding.  Some love functional strength training.  Maybe throwing the medicine ball or HIIT will be your thing.  Maybe a team sport...maybe boxing or kickboxing.  I have had clients who hate leg day but who enjoy jumping rope.Things that come naturally to you are a good place to start.What does it look like for you?If you look at any professional athlete, their program is individualized.   Even players in the same position on the same team will have unique training plans, because each person has their own strengths and weaknesses that need addressed.  You are the same.  Your program shouldn't be exactly like someone else's, it should be unique to you!Strength comes first. Strength is the foundation of all exercise.  Building strength increases ability.  Increased ability equals better training.  Better training equals achieving goals quickly.An untrained person can make progress in strength with only 2 training days a week.3 days/week is required for body composition changes.  Anything above 3 is gold.For highly trained athletes this will be a minimum of 4 days/week.If you get busy and life is a mess, 2 days a week of good training will allow you maintain your strength. And keep your foundation solid for when you can return to harder training.
