MRT with Boot campThe sun is out and we are all geared up to get out and get active!! Whether it is going for a run, hitting the gym or playing a game of squash, as long as it move us towards that summer body –we get involved!!Here at Train, our home in the heart of Sandton, we are very fortunate to be able to blast out an amazing outdoor session at any point … and for those of us that are really keen… brave the pool as cool down JJ Outdoor training is a great way to get you burning away at that unwanted muffin top whilst soaking up some vitamin D.. But what do you do in a boot camp session??A great training method that you can use in your boot camp style training is MRT, Metabolic resistance training.No Magic – MRT is essentially fast-paced circuits, where you move from one exercise to the next with little rest in between.MRT workouts have been proven to be one of the most effective training methods for fat loss, both in and outside of the gym!The amount of calories you burn in an MRT workout can easily rack up or exceed 600 calories, depending on the routine.Topping that, the (EPOC) excess post-exercise oxygen consumption increases dramatically.As mentioned in previous articles EPOC OR afterburn, measures the energy expended to return your body to its normal, resting state after a workout!! Yes – equilibrium- that which your body is forever working towards

Eating six small meals a day instead of three large ones is supposed to be the way to go if you want to “stoke the metabolic fire” and lose weight. But not everyone has that kind of time.Often I get asked, “How can I eat six meals a day when I work so much?” That’s where intermittent fasting comes in.Intermittent fasting helps your body regulate leptin, a hormone directly related to fat loss that helps your thyroid work properly. Also, fasting improves insulin sensitivity, which is responsible for fat loss and muscle gain. (Learn about the benefits of carb back-loading.)After a fast, your body is more sensitive to insulin and uses foods consumed post-fast for burning fat and building muscle

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
