Training Goals

  • Strength: This goal is all about building muscle strength and power, giving you a solid foundation for all things fitness. Think squats, deadlifts, and bench presses for strength training.
  • Power: Want to be explosive and fast? Power training is your answer. It’s perfect for athletes and sports performance, with exercises such as Olympic lifts, plyometrics, and sprinting.
  • Hypertrophy: For those looking to increase muscle size, hypertrophy training is the way to go. Ideal for bodybuilding and aesthetics, this type of training involves higher rep ranges with moderate weight, including exercises like bicep curls, leg presses, and lateral raises.
  • Endurance: If long-duration activities and overall fitness are your goals, endurance training has your back. Improve your muscle endurance and stamina with high-rep, low-weight exercises like bodyweight squats, push-ups, and lunges.
