recommended to do a combination of resistance work and
cardiovascular work in your programme. It is a common
misconception that to lose weight you have to do lots of
cardiovascular work, & it’s worth taking note that minute
for minute resistance training is more effective for fat
burning than cardiovascular training. It is very important
to measure your progress on any type of programme but
particularly so on weight loss programmes as it really helps
with your motivation.
For clients who are happy to do so, I
take measurements of a selection of areas of the body at
regular intervals so that they can see their progress on
paper. It is good to have a piece of clothing that you
want to be able to wear comfortably (but currently don’t
feel happy in) to try on every few weeks & see how
much you have changed your body shape and composition. |
