Fitness Friday Fact #74


One of the many perks tied to my Personal Training Certification is the resource pool that I am provided.  With each email and article, I feel as though I learn so much about the current state of fitness and wellness.  

Yesterday I had the pleasure of reading an article written by Alex Hoffman.  Alex is an established Personal Trainer and an instructor at ISSA.  In his article, he dug deep into the issue of concurrent training.  Concurrent training, in layman's term, pertains to "getting on the treadmill and lifting weights" in the same workout session.  With many factors impacting the positive and negative effects of such training, Alex asks fitness enthusiasts to determine their ultimate goals and follow one of his suggested paths.
