One day in my training regime. Workouts should be planned and followed. Keep tabs on every kilo you push and pull, every kilo you gain or lose. Always keep score of your heart rate during low and high intensity workouts. This is how I have done it for the past 12 years and this is what I do with my clients.
Ok. Back to my workouts. I usually have 6 to 9 workouts a week. But hear me out. A workout is not a “a feel dead after” action. No. Workouts come in many forms. Resistance training. Endurance training. Cardio training. Body weight training. Weight training. Agility training. And the list goes on. I usually have 3 strength and weight trainings a week, 2 cardio workouts combined with agility and endurance training. 1 or 2 times a week stretching and movement control workouts. Summing it all up my body moves every day. I also ride my bike all year round. So that’s usually 10 - 15 km everyday on casual. I also keep myself hydrated all day long. Typical 2 - 3 litres a day. I don’t count in workout water. I drink 1 litre while working out. For many years my favourite water has been Ķekavas Avots. Workouts are usually 1 - 2 hours long. Sometimes when I’m in a rush, 45 minutes.
So this is a typical, boring workout day in my life. Body weight workout, putting some extra power on core strength. A little bit of cardio of boxing. Lots of water, followed by a big meal.
So as you can see, you don’t have to go hard or go home to be fit and feel good. Just plan your workouts before, set a goal, ask for guidance if you can’t find some answers, and guess what? You will succeed.
Have a great day everyone! Train smart and hard, keep hydrated, get enough of sleep, eat fresh and be the best!
