How to create a simple and effective strength training plan that is also time efficient.

Most of the benefits from exercise come from the recovery process and therefore it might be the most important aspect of training. Remember, strength training forces adaptation and that’s where the benefit lies. Recovery allows this adaptation to occur and as such must be a priority. So let’s talk about some aspects of recovery and how to optimize them.

Here we discuss recovery time between workouts and the optimal timing to allow muscles to fully adapt. This will dictate the training frequency in a workout plan and help achieve optimal recovery.

Here we lay out the different mechanisms of hypertrophy. These should be used strategically in workouts where the goal is to increase lean muscle mass.

The right travel workout equipment can mean the difference between an ok workout and a great one. Here I give my recommendations for travel workout equipment based on years of my experiences training myself and my clients.

Here we explore different strategies for progressive overload and how to implement them. Progressive overload is needed to increase demand on muscles and progress in strength, hypertrophy, or muscular endurance.

Here we explore how different rep ranges in strength training can be leveraged to achieve specific goals - including maximal strength, hypertrophy, and muscle endurance.

This is a brief exploration of the benefits of strength training - which include improvements in muscle mass, bone density, joint stability, heart health, cognition, mood, quality of life, longevity, and fragility.
