Overdo it If you go too hard, boy oh boy will you feel it EVERYWHERE over the next few days. Our legs are some of the longest, largest muscles in the body and they get used every time we walk, let alone when we work them hard in the gym. You can overdo it by pushing yourself to go past the point of total muscle failure, adding on more sets than you need, and even forcing yourself to stick to a higher weight than you’re comfortable with. Go hard, but not TOO hard!

Lift heavy High repetitions + low weight on any exercise is a solid recipe for physical endurance, but if your goal is to get toned, this isn’t the way to do it. A toned appearance comes from lean muscle, which requires lifting heavy for a limited number of reps. You shouldn’t go minutes on end before feeling the burn!

Hey babe — in this video I’m going to answer 4 questions from my weekly livestream!I cover:1. How long to stay in a build phase and how to know when you’re finished2. Why you should NEVER combine intermittent fasting with lifting or any form of strength training3. What to eat pre-workout for maximum muscle gain and fat loss4. The relationship between the building and cutting phases, and how to use them in relation to each other.
If you’re in the gym for hours every day, you’re killing your body’s ability to recover — and without recovery, you’re never going to see the gains or loss you’re looking for. Your body needs regular rest (and the right kind of rest) to build muscle and burn fat.I even found out that one of my Blueprint members was actively losing muscle mass — and it didn’t take long for me to figure out why (I break it down in detail in the video).Here’s a quick breakdown of what you’ll by watching:Why you must take full days off from working out — what happens inside your body when you don’t — and exactly how many rest days you should be taking…The importance of getting enough sleep — and how much sleep your body needs to recover…Why you should always stay on top of your nutrition, especially when you don’t work out…And why you need to stretch!
