Duration of Workouts

Fitness Tip

The harder and longer you work out, the better the results, right? No, wrong.

In truth, after a certain period of time, exercise can actually be counter-productive. Too much exercise over taxes your body's ability to recover between workouts. This results in muscle loss and over-training - a condition that zaps your energy levels and decreases your health.

Exercise Rest The key to successful exercise is to stimulate your muscles as quickly and intensely as possible, then stop. Afterwards, provide adequate time and optimal nutrients for proper repair of the tissue. This will give you stronger, more toned muscles and speedier fat loss.
