Keeping a consistent exercise program is important but so is varying your exercises

By - Ted Escobedo 2 hours ago   1 min read

It turns out that getting the most from your workouts comes from a balance of consistency and variety. Here’s how:

• Maintain a consistent, regular schedule to make it a habit, but rotate exercises, increase weights, or change training formats every few weeks to avoid performance plateaus. • Recovery: Ensure 48 hours of recovery time between working the same muscle groups.
• Flexibility: If you can’t commit to daily hour-long workouts, break them into 10–15-minute segments, or prioritize consistency over intensity.
• Progressive Load: Gradually increase weight or intensity (never more than 50% increase in frequency/weight) over time to avoid injury.
