| Making the most out of your workouts in the least amount of time
You have limited time, you have too many places to be and the clock is running. What do you do? Don't give up the gym! You can still get a beneficial workout in a shorter period of time if you know what to do. Don't blow your workout off if you think your cramped for time. Increasing intensities for a brief period of time time is challenging and beneficial especially if you have hit a plateau. How does it work? Quite simply you increase the intensity on both cardio and weights. For cardio this can be an increase to resistance level or speed. For weight a slight increase in poundage as generous as ten pounds can make a substantial impact on a workout that is time restricted. Oftentimes with an increase in cardio intensity you can back the length of time down and still retain the same benefits and maybe even more benefit from a new physical challenge. So stay the course and don't sway your efforts in getting to the gym, it's easy to make excuses and gradually stop going. DON'T! The world has enough slackers.
