Staying Lean with Tempo by Angela Coon

Athletes and Coaches

Charlie and I were discussing the importance of tempo and why some don’t get it.  He summarized it perfectly  by saying,

“You must do tempo especially for sport. Females are especially vulnerable because they have trouble staying lean without it”

Secondly their nervous system can not tolerate higher volumes of more intense alternatives.

Charlie Francis of CharlieFrancis.com adds..

The longer your athletes spend on indoor hard surfaces the more likely shin splints, Achilles tendon issues and other lower limb problems can occur.

To prevent this you need an arsenal of alternative strategies.

The “No Excuse Series” in our store offers varied levels of workouts to suite almost anyone for fat loss, increasing lean body mass and tempo training. All you need is a small space, the right attitude and you are ready to go!

The “No Excuse Series” also contains a bike workout that steps it up a notch if you have a regular or exercise style bike. The primary advantage of this workout is you get the cardio done limiting the pounding.

Finally Project Jane a favorite product of ours which contains an excellent pool workout that works very well replacing tempo especially for those who can not run due to injury.

Let us know how it goes and we will see you on the forum.
