In this new podcast episode titled "What To Look For In A New Fitness Program in 2024," Rod and Kate give out some major pointers to help you in your quest for better health and fitness in the new year!
Momentum is so powerful! If you've already been working out, don't stop. Try not to take breaks, if at all possible.
Look for a program that is female specific, so you don’t have to worry about getting bulky.
It's ideal to choose a program with a one on one level of service, or a very small group environment, to reduce your chance of injury.
Beware of red flags! You don’t want to lose weight quickly because that means you’re losing muscle and water (not just fat), and damaging your metabolism. This is a warning sign that you’ll gain all the weight back and more.
When choosing any diet or fitness program, you want to be sure that it won't require you to do anything unrealistic or unsustainable in the long term. If it does, your results will not last when you go back to your normal life.
It's a big red flag if a program requires you to cut out any food groups (i.e. stop eating meat, carbs, fats, etc)
Choose a trainer that’s already where you want to be, or an expert at working with the type of woman you are or want to be.
Choose a program that encompasses the full picture - nutrition and exercise.
But at the same time, something is better than nothing. Don’t let perfection be the enemy of progress.
Be honest with yourself about your starting point. The ideal exercise program at 50 years of age is very different from what you could tolerate at 25.
"Weight lifting is a relationship that you’re building with your muscles! It's a communication. Don't yell at them, because they’ll hurt back." -Rod
If you’re not planning to become a body builder or physique competitor, that’s not who you want to take advice from.
Select a fitness program that is focused on muscle development, since more muscle equates to a significantly lower risk of disease and death.
The very best fitness programs come with nutrition included, and some form of accountability.
