Many people stick to one or two workout types such as pilates or weight training hoping to see the results they’re looking for. For beginners, it can feel very overwhelming trying to decide what type of workout to do and when. Hosts Allegra and Dalton explain how you don’t need to do all types to see results, however, you must include a range that involves cardio and strength training to build lean muscle and burn calories efficiently. Muscle build is imperative when trying to build a shape or even for general weight loss. Allegra discusses why weight training is so essential and why it won’t make you “big” especially if that isn’t your goal. Next, Dalton and Allegra answer ‘Questions From You’ including topics such as BCAA’s, creatine, and top protein drinks.
Topics Discussed:
-Workout types explained (weight training, HIIT, cardio, pilates)
