Balanced Exercise and Fitness Approach

Every Saturday I go to the local Inner Western Sydney gym and do a leg workout. This is a ritual i have done for as long as I can remember. Whilst at the gym my workout may look something like this ;

Leg Workout

leg press 3  X 8 / Superset with BW jumping squat x 20

Leg Extension 3 x 12 / superset with BW jumping split lunge x 30

Hack squat  3 x 10 / superset with wall squat 60 seconds

Hamstring Curl 3 x 10 / superset with 3 x 10 each side 1 legged dead lift @ 20kg

Standing Calf Raise

Seated Calf raise

MT roundhouse kicks 3 x 10 each side on heavy bag

I enjoy using high the latest designed high quality machines , especially after super  setting with a functional BW exercise that has just fired up all of my synergist muscles.

A lot of trainers take the all or nothing approach when it comes to machines.

With all the hype around functional exercise and tools such as Kettlebells people tend to want to wave a flag and say “hey who needs a gym”?

Well in my experience the best results come from using everything we have available and keeping a balanced approach.

incidentally my alternate leg workout done on a Monday looks like this;

Kettlebell swing variations

1 leg dead lift

Dead lift

1 legged squat with sots press combo using  kettlebell

Over head squat KB

Farmers Walk

X Band Walk

Single Leg Swiss Ball Leg Curl

Bulgarian Split Jumps

I have a 3rd leg workout using power rack and barbells but lately as I have picked up my MT training I have not been doing it as much.

The most important thing is to keep balanced and not to over use and 1 exercise modality.

Weight Loss Trends – Confessions of a Mobile Personal Trainer in Sydney

As a mobile fitness professional who has been around the traps for long enough I am constantly hit with messages from people with a barrow to push about the latest and greatest way of training.

These days everyone is an internet expert

The fitness industry is constantly re-inventing the wheel because sooner or later the knowledge about how to get fit, stay in shape and lose fat becomes common knowledge.

This would equate to a decline in the demand for our services, unless of course we are actually  good at what we do.

A lot of self proclaimed fitness experts will have you believe that training methodologies that have worked for the last 30 years do not work…

The behavior is purely a (clever..?) business strategy

Its a way of rustling up some business.

The truth is out there

As a Sydney Mobile Personal Trainer who has participated in fitness for over 25 years and been involved in Martial Art for just as long I know the truth to be simple.

How do I know?

Well I do it week in week out, have done for years and I have seen the results first hand and in fact lost 30 kg after an injury left me unable to walk for 6 months back in 1999.

The main ingredient in losing weight or fat is to eat within your calorie allowance consistently and adhere to a well designed  exercise plan 4-6 times a week.
