Personal trainer reveals how to work out smarter not harder. Working smarter, not harder, when it comes to exercise can lead to more effective workouts and less risk of injury. Charli Jaffrey (AKA CoachedByCharli), a personal trainer, reveals how to achieve your fitness goals in a smarter way. Form is everything First and foremost, you need to make sure you are doing your chosen exercises correctly. ”A lot of the faster-paced HIIT workouts emphasise fast movements to burn those calories, but if you're not doing the move correctly, you could be doing more harm than good.” "I recommend using the Pivo Pod Lite - a smartphone mount that allows you to record your workouts while always keeping you in-shot without having to ask someone to record you - then watch it back and look at your form on different exercises.” Prioritise quality over quantity When planning your workout, choose fewer exercises that you can do effectively, rather than rushing through a lot of them. ”If you're new to exercise or haven't worked out in a while (two weeks or more) then setting a daily step goal and doing three 30-minute workouts per week, like resistance training or circuits classes, with rest days in between is a good place to start.” Make sure you're eating enough to fuel your exercise regime Nourishing your body is vital, especially if you're exercising regularly. ”My clients are often surprised when I set their calorie intake as higher than it has been currently, but it's all about eating the right foods, not restrictive diets.” "Protein is absolutely essential for muscle growth and as long as you're in a calorie deficit (calorie burn vs. intake) then you'll lose weight, if indeed that is the goal.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
