Show Notes

What's up, Achievers?! Still no baby yet! Lauren is visualizing that it's going to happen this Friday - so cross your fingers! In the first question, we talk about how to go about developing the core strength required for push ups after pregnancy (1:48). We then discuss how we modify and adapt our strength workouts for if someone's main goal is fat loss (6:46). We then went over our thought process on whether or not long distance running would impact a person's strength gains (14:02). Lastly, we dive into how long you should be able to hold a plank for, and how long you should work on training it each individual set during your workouts (17:16). We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we'd love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot! Please DM us @achievefitnessboston on Instagram if you have any questions you'd like us to answer. Until next time, Peace, Love, and Muscles!
