20 minutes, really?

We are targeting the 'minimum effective dose' of exercise that will cause your body to adapt and change. The scientific method of exercise we are prescribing, produces these results in a 20 minute session. Why would you do more than you need to in order to cause the desired change in your body, especially knowing that more is NOT better. Think of prescribed medicine. If the Doctor tells you to take 2 pills to get the desired result, you wouldn't take 6. If you did, you would actually end up doing more harm than good in most cases. Exercise works the same way. Too much is an overdose.

Why exercise just once or twice per week?

When you exercise using the best tool for the job (ARX), you are essentially breaking down your muscles and making them weaker while you are in the studio. The magic in your body happens when you leave. After causing the stress to the muscles during the workout, your body sends a signal to your muscles to adapt and change. Your muscles adapt by repairing themselves and becoming tighter and stronger. It has been shown in published study after study that this repair phase is 4 to 8 days for most people. Generally, the younger you are and the more testosterone you have, the repair phase is shorter. If you stress your muscles again before they are fully repaired, you then suffer diminishing or even voided returns from your previous workout. Since everything is Quantified at Quick Fit, we will always be assessing your body's ability to recover and we will assist you in making adjustments as needed. One High Intensity Strength Training Session is all that your muscles need. On top of the strength session each week, we do recommend that our clients walk at least 20 minutes a few times per week or come in and participate in our up beat High Intensity Cardio Sessions! This type of exercises is great for fat loss and overall heart health. It's also great for the mind and it helps you sleep better which heals your body in fantastic ways.
