Our swole classes are all about the slow burn and the quick endorphin release from heavy lifts. Resistance training like weight lifting exercises in our Swole classes increase bone density and muscle mass which results in less bone and joint damage as we age.
This is a more relaxed session with more time spent on each movement, perfecting the technique and increasing the weight.
With extra time spent on each exercise, our swole classes allow you to really increase the weight, providing fast gains in strength.
During your first week at Movement Innovation we encourage both your load (how heavy you are lifting) and intensity (how hard you are going) to be at 40-50%, and we focus on technique.
Whether it is your first day in a gym, it has been a while since you have trained, or you are coming straight over from something different; we want the body to transition smoothly.
Focusing on technique in this first week leads to less muscle soreness, rapid recovery, and sets you up for injury free movement for life.
In your second week your load remains light at 50-60% of your capabilities, but we encourage increasing the intensity.
Your body is starting to adapt to the form of movement. This is where the magic starts to happen, you’ll notice your energy increases and you get a nice hit of dopamine after every session. The part we love the most is you can increase this as much or as little as you can handle.
In your third week your technique is improving, and we can start to increase your load up to 70-75%, as you start to feel stronger, fitter and more confident. Increasing the load is crucial to building muscle and toning.
In your fourth week you will be able to hit 80-100% of both your load and intensity as your technique, fitness and recovery all improve.
By your fourth week you will feel like you have more energy, you will feel stronger, you will feel fitter.
By day 28 the foundations have been set. The once scary first session is a distant memory, and this is the first time you’ve felt excited about what lies ahead.
You’ve noticed that the others who were training with you are now your accountability buddies, and you drive each other to be better.
This is when a goal turns into a lifestyle; you now live the movement.
