3 Things not to do post workout.

These are not the only 3 things to avoid but t's a good place to start.

1. Staying in Gym clothes. Warm soggy clothing is a great place for bacteria to live

2. Become a couch potato. Light activity keeps blood moving so improves recovery

3. Skip post work out snack. You should try and eat food containing protein, a little fat and some complex carbohydrate 20 to 30 minutes after training.

What’s best Cardio or strength?

The simple answer is neither. This is because they do different jobs for your body.
• Cardio protects your heart and builds stamina.
• Strength training builds muscle and protects your bones.

Benefits of Cardio
• Heart health: Keeps your heart and lungs strong.
• Stamina: Helps you move longer without getting tired.
• Calorie burn: Burns many calories while you work out.
Benefits of Strength Training
• Muscle power: Makes your muscles bigger and stronger.
• Bone strength: Keeps bones dense and strong as you age.
• Metabolism: Builds muscle that helps your body burn energy all day.

Many people believe that cardio is best for weight loss. However, this only really burns calories during the exercise. Strength training increases your metabolism so continues to burn calories after the workout, this means it is actually better for weight loss.
