False Assumptions about Exercise Duration

The idea that workouts must be long to be productive is a complete and utter fallacy.


My gains skyrocketed when I stopped training to “time,” started being more efficient (cut the fluff and redundancy from my workouts), and began training to a standard, while working within my natural preferences (I don't like wasting time).


The more knowledge and experience I've gained training myself and – at this point, literally – thousands of clients, the more I've stripped away the unnecessary, focused on what really moves the needle (intelligent exercise variations for the specific individual, progressive overload, consistency, and repeatability). Sessions are done quicker but adherence is better and progress is more consistent, while injuries are less frequent.


In my experience, these sessions and programs are what works best, long term.
