We advise our members who have never used weights to start with lifting machines since it’s a safer option for a beginner, and they’re palatable for your weaker muscles. However, with a good trainer and spotter, you can gradually and safely learn how to strengthen your core muscles such as the pelvis, hips, rectus abdominis with free weights.

We advise our trainees who are just beginning to start their cardio exercise by running. It’s an easy cardio workout requiring only your pair of running shoes. As you go on, you can run quicker and for a longer time, or add walking to your routine depending on your fitness level and goals. Just remember not to run too fast, so you don’t exhaust yourself too quickly.

To avoid stressing your muscles, we advise members to divide their cardio and strength workout into different sessions. However, as a beginner, you may consider the amount of time you have to exercise, and then formulate a workout plan that you can follow for each session. Besides, you can maximize your workout time by incorporating strength training and cardio exercises in one session. Only remember not to overwork yourself or risk your form.

The reality is what works for one client doesn’t work for all. Meaning, fat isn’t lost through a particular means. Moreover, clients handle their training programs differently; therefore, results vary. Nevertheless, our fitness professionals have specific guidelines when planning a client’s training.

Physical activities that involve using many muscles burn more calories, therefore, reduce fats. Also, endurance, known as aerobic exercises, like jogging, swimming, running, help lose fat.
