We utilize the push and pull method to give your muscles more time to recover. Instead of focusing on all of your push muscles or all of your pull muscles, this routine will provide you with a total-body burn!
When participating in a weight-training routine, it is imperative that you also adhere to a clean-eating plan. You should focus on eating more protein, as well as lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. Drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated. Avoid processed foods and sodas, as they are high in calories but offer no real nutritional value. Keeping your diet “clean” will help you to get in shape even faster.
