Get out of your comfort zone….
In order to see true change in your body you need to get out of your comfort zone and SHOCK your body! This means changing your exercise program around completely OR eating entirely different - in some cases it requires doing both! First and foremost you need to decide what your goals are - if you are looking to put more muscle mass on but you are an avid running and enjoy marathons - then this is going to be a difficult task. You need to decide what you want - more muscle mass or marathons because it’s too difficult to have both. I have never known a figure competitor in tip top shape who also was training for a marathon - it just doesn’t happen. The two counter each other by the running eating away at too much muscle tissue from all that long slow distance training.
So, if your not happy with your body then first decide what you want it to look like and second get help from a personal trainer to design a program to get you the body you want! One that you are happy with and that suits your everyday needs. If you enjoy lots of sports and want to be active with your family but don’t have a massive amount of time to dedicate to training then functional training and circuit training are going to be the best modes of training for you. But, the only true way to tell is to consult with a trainer about your body and your needs and have them get you on the right path so that you are making the most of your time in the gym!
