One of the most amazing things about training legs is the endless ability for the body to adapt to ever-tougher, more-challenging stimulus. A session that may have seemed really tough a month ago may be a breeze for you now. That means you need to keep stepping up your efforts in order to continue seeing the changes you want. How? Samantha Parker, C-IAYT, E-RYT 500, a yoga, kinesiophobia cognitive and movement specialist, and CEO of Neoteric Movement Systems, has the answer in the form of a three-level leg workout. Combining the tenets of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with four ultr ..read more

All cardio workouts have one thing in common — they can be made harder and more effective if you have the will and the skill to keep up. “You can make any workout more advanced by dialing up the intensity level, dialing up the difficulty level of the exercise or by dialing down the recovery phase,” says personal trainer and group exercise instructor Samantha Clayton, vice president of Worldwide Sports Performance and Fitness for Herbalife Nutrition and a former Olympian who competed for the U.K. in the Sydney 2000 Games. “The workout I’m about to show you does all three.” As Clayton ..read more

Heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death in the U.S., claiming 25 percent of lives  as of 2022. And while we often think of heart health as something to worry about when we’re older, heart disease doesn’t have favorite ages, genders or ethnicities.  The stats may seem inevitable, but they don’t have to be. The good news is your heart is a muscle. Like other muscles, you can train it every day, and the stronger it gets, the more resilient it is to becoming a statistic.  Unlike other muscles, the “how” part of strengthening the heart can be quite ambiguous.

High-intensity interval training — HIIT for short — isn’t just a cardio phenomenon. This training style, which intersperses high-velocity all-out bouts of activity with short rest periods, has been shown to improve fat burning and aerobic fitness in a more efficient manner than typical long-form steady-state cardio.

The appeal of outdoor workouts usually comes hand in hand with the appeal of getting on a track or field for some running and sprinting work. When that’s the case, it’s easy for a lifter to not be too sure just where to start. The truth is, running-based drills and exercises aren’t something you just “get.” They’re just like weight-training exercises: There’s a learning process and plenty of technique to regard to ensure safety and proper execution. If they’re not respected, then injuries can loom. We don’t expect everyone to be adept at running drills, plyometrics and sprinting — and for tha ..read more
