Quality vs. Quantity

Hey guys,

How has your Monday been?
My gym session this morning was trying. I was convinced I was going to die before the allocated 20 minutes have elapsed… but clearly not. Here I am, typing out about my ordeal and secretly laughing with pride. Yep, I did it again!

I am really seeing changes in my body now, despite what the scale says, so I am really happy. And you? Are your efforts rewarding in any way?

Jeni:

Interval training is trying, Mel. I fully agree.
But remember the age-old “quality vs. quantity” thinking? It is applicable in fitness too. You can choose to work easy for an hour or work your butt off in a short burst of time and get it out of the way.

With the never-ending to do list of the 21-century citizen (male or female) I cannot understand how people still opt for “an easy 1 hour workout”! And for those of you who use time as the excuse (and yes, there are many of you doing that) just comment to this blog with your current weight, activity levels and diet and I will develop an interval program for you that will see you in and out of the gym in half an hour!

Ciao!

Jeni
