Strength Training

Strength training Move 'n' Improve style is never dull or repetitive. Variety is the flavour of the day and there is plenty of choice!
Every strength training session at Move 'n' Improve begins with a warm-up. This may involve some boxing (which even the older ladies love), aerobics or some step work. Following this the strength training begins and may take one of three forms:

Traditional Weight Training

A session of your traditional weight training involves a series of compound exercises with some upbeat, energizing music in the background. A compound exercise is an exercise that will work not just one muscle but a few muscles at the same time. Consider both of these…working one muscle at a time across your whole body or working a few muscles in one go…which one do you think is going to be the most efficient, the safest and the least time consuming? Yes the compound exercise of course! In effect your are killing a few birds with the same stone!

Slow Weight Training

Slow weight training is simply your traditional weight training…in a superslow mode! The weight is lifted in a very slow manner, each repetition taking 20 seconds! This is a very demanding type of training for your muscles but a very effective one as well. It's a favourite for building up strength faster as well as an efficient fat burner. This session executed with slow relaxing music in the background had a meditative effect in itself. You walk out feeling not only well worked-out but calm and relaxed as well!
