Why Slow Motion Strength Training is The Perfect Workout (And The Evidence to Prove it)

  “For years I spent hours in the gym, 5 days a week, not getting the results I wanted. It felt like a waste of time.” But what if there’s a way to workout more efficiently? “I’ve been a runner, tried all the bootcamps, and even spent my precious Sunday mornings slowly dying alongside all the millennials in spin class. I’m no stronger, no thinner, and now my knees constantly ache. I don’t want to keep exercising if I just end up getting hurt.” But what if those weren’t the right exercise methods? “I invested time and money to work with a Personal Trainer and never saw any results. I felt like they didn’t understand my needs. Personal Training is NOT for me. “ Maybe your workouts just weren’t customized to your goals and abilities? Sound familiar?

Can Strength Training Help Multiple Sclerosis?

Can Strength Training Help Multiple Sclerosis? With multiple sclerosis (MS), it can feel like your life is out of your control. People with chronic diseases like MS are two-to-three times more likely to suffer from depression. And although feeling discouraged when dealing with a chronic health issue is understandable, studies show that mindset can play a powerful part in the journey to managing a disease like MS.

How many calories do you burn during a workout vs. after? One of the most common questions we hear is, “How many calories did I burn from my workout?” To help answer that question, let’s talk money. The traditional method for making money is exchanging time for money. You finish a project or complete a few days of work, and you’re compensated for those hours or work that you completed. You work 40 hours in a week and you’re paid for that week in the following paycheck. It’s a one-time compensation for the work completed. This is the common model of making money, and the traditional lens through which people think about burning calories. Another way to make money is receiving residual income.

Traded Local Gym Membership for Private Training

John Gilbert was a long-time member of a local Orange County gym chain. When the pandemic hit, he had to stop. But, when the chain was allowed to reopen, the thought of going back to the gym made him feel unsure and uncomfortable. “It wasn’t staffed most of the time, and members could just badge in and out. And the hygiene program wasn’t super good there. I just didn’t feel comfortable going back.” Luckily, his wife had been training at The Perfect Workout’s Tustin studio for a couple of years, and she was a big fan. So, he decided to take the plunge.     A Private, Safe Workout Space Curbed His Fears Because the Tustin facility (and all 62 locations) follow strict CDC guidelines to keep the workout space clean and safe, John felt like it was time to make the switch from gym to private personal training. “Everything’s
