Best New Exercises
Getting to the next level and seeing results with your training only happens when you get outside of your comfort range and try different new challenging exercises.
As a personal trainer, I’m a strong believer in a workout that is packed full of variety. Boredom and plateaus are some of the biggest roadblocks in any fitness or weight loss routine, and it’s up to me to provide my clients with the tools to overcome them.

Flexibility Training Routine
When it comes to weight loss and training elements the biggest missing part for most people is ignoring flexibility training.
Flexibility training seems to get left in the dust but is one of the most important parts in allowing your muscles to relax, recover and grow while keeping your joints healthy.
What I will provide you in this session are stretches which fully allow the connective tissue between muscles and your bones to expand and separate allowing your muscles to really strengthen in the most healthy way possible.

Ab Workout Routine Amplified
No matter how many ab workout routines you may have tried I’m going to put together one here that pushes you to your limits and it’s all done in a power 30 minute session.
The great thing about this ab workout routine is that even if you can’t complete it you can break it down and reduce the repetitions to suit your level, and yet have that ultimate goal to reach.
Before we jump right in I’ll give you one more nugget of wisdom here that you may have forgotten about.

High Intensity Training & Body Fat
Like many people out there, you may believe that burning body fat requires a lot of cardio especially if you are trying to tone your thighs and butt.
Although cardio can help you burn extra calories and fat, you may want to rethink things a bit.
The truth is, cardio is just okay when it comes to burning body fat. All in all, it may not really help you reach your long-term fitness goals.

Intermediate Workout for Fat Loss
A lot of workout plans out there focus on beginners, so I thought I’d offer up something for those who are past the beginner stage but not quite advanced.
How do you know if you’re at the intermediate level? The biggest indicator is probably how long you’ve been working out and what kind of equipment you’re used to. If you feel like you’re past the basic stationary gym equipment, or if you’re already used to using dumbbells and cables, you’re probably intermediate.
