3 key training tips

1:HAVE A GOAL
Knowing what you want and when you want it is a huge advantage. Priortize your fitness goals and give yourself a workable timeline in which to acheive them

2: PLAN YOUR MONTH
Before each month, circle training days on your calendar, writing down exactly which activities you'll perform on those days. This helps you plan your days off, which is essential for recovery.

3: MANIPULATE REPS
Mix up your rep count every 2 weeks. For example, go 2 weeks of 12-15 reps, 2 weeks of 10 reps and 2 weeks of 6-8 resp. This keeps your body guessing and challenges the muscles to adapt to diversity.

Bonus workout rule:
Work smarter not harder. The early bird gets the worm, but the 2nd mouse gets the cheese. Put simply, this means we should learn from the training mistakes of otherso what we have done in the past. Proper planning will take your body composition and performance to the next level.
