The beautiful thing about strength training is that it trickles down to all aspects of your life. As we stated early a lot of successful people, businessman and leaders of the world, strength train or exercise daily because it improves all other facets of life.Here is a template of the program I share with my clients where we focus on five movements with resistance, and these can vary however the main point is to be executing 2 to 4 times a week at a reasonable resistance for you.Template work out :-Squat pattern( two foot squat or split squat)-Hinge pattern( deadlift or hip lift/hip-thrust-Core pattern( front planks, side planks, bird dogs)-Push pattern (push ups, dumbbell press, overhead shoulder press)-Pull pattern (pull ups, chin ups, lat pull downs, dumbbell rows)Perform 3 sets of 5-8 reps per exercise & what is most important is the frequency & consistency of the actions. Show up often & keep it brief. 5-30 minute work outs are more valuable than 2-2 hour work outs in a weeks span.Stay tuned for more information about how to use strength training to your advantage & get the most out of your strength training.
