Saturday Sweat Tomorrow and Training Intensity

Just a reminder that tomorrow marks the third Saturday Sweat. We are picking up some good momentum with a lot of new faces. Hopefully you can join us at either 9am or 11am on Saturday morning.

Training Intensity

Lately I have been putting a lot of thought into training intensity. Let's start by defining intensity. In broad, general terms, I would define training intensity as the level of perceived difficulty as it relates to an exercise, a workout, or even a series of workouts. Let's face it, if you drag yourself to the gym after work a few times per week, you are better than 90% of America's population. But are you really training hard enough to alter your body?

You can get intensity from heavier weights, longer sets, faster movements, longer workouts, and more challenging exercises and movements. However you decide, try to get some more intensity into your training. We will be getting intense Saturday Morning. Will you?
