3 foundations of The garage gym way
Lifting weight
Every session at the garage gym you will be required to lift weight with correct form. Each exercise will have a set “intensity” expectation that the movement should be performed at.
Lifting weights reduces all-cause mortality rates.
Transport
In every session you will be instructed to move yourself with/without weighted elements from point A to point B.
Movement is key to life.
Intervals
Every workout will be planned around the use of intervals to allow time to recover/refocus. This ensures that the correct intensity and technique can be used whilst training.
Rest is just as important as work.
1-1 and small group private training includes but, is not limited to, the 3 foundational elements of the “The Garage Gym”.
Group sessions
Strength Bias
The “strength bias” program focuses on lifting weight, hitting maximum reps, or using tempo to create muscular fatigue. Set rest breaks will be a minimum of 60 seconds but can range up to 3 minutes.
Sweat bias
The “sweat bias” program focuses on movement and high heart rates. These sessions have small (30-60secs) prescribed rest periods with some elements having no “prescribed” rest at all.
The ”difference” between the sessions
The big difference between the strength and sweat bias sessions are the rest periods and weight used during exercises. In strength bias sessions the rest periods will be longer and the weight is expected to be heavier. Due to the weight being heavier sometimes the exercise is also modified to be a simpler movement pattern. Both sessions will be “sweaty” though.
