Walking and Weights?

Did you know there’s something you can add to your strength training routine that can be a game changer?


No, it’s not some new exercise or elaborate new rep scheme.


It isn’t a new exercise machine … and it certainly isn’t a Peloton.


It’s simply putting one foot in front of the other.


That’s right … walking.


Now that the weather is getting nicer, walking is the secret ingredient you can add to your weightlifting program that will help you improve in more ways than one.


Don’t get me wrong … strength training is still the main ingredient in any effective exercise program, no matter what time of year it is.


But we can take advantage of warmer weather, more sunlight, and fresh air … and burn some extra calories while we’re at it.


And not only will you burn more calories and fat so you can see the muscle definition you’re working so hard to achieve, you’ll get some Vitamin D and be able to clear your head and think for a while.


Now, if you’re already walking for exercise, that’s great … keep doing it!


But if you’re not including a well-designed, intentional strength training program in your fitness routine and would like to, shoot me a reply so we can brainstorm some ideas for getting started.
