Train like an athlete!

For most people simply running every day, or just trying to lift heavy isn't going to suit your goals. Unless your goal is to become a marathon runner or to be a big body builder, you should be training like an athlete to be bit. Think more like a swimmer, track athlete, mixed martial artist, tennis player. Train your body to be more explosive, powerful and for endurance as well. Train in functional movements that allow your body to work as an entire unit as opposed to just training one body part in an unrealistic way.

Let me train you to be an athlete, your body will naturally look better and more fit as you progress and you will feel great and ready to tackle the world!
