You don’t need to live in the gym to make progress — you just need to train with intent.
Research shows that shorter, high-intensity sessions lead to greater strength and muscle adaptations than marathon workouts done at low intensity.
Studies have consistently found that when total volume is matched, training intensity (how close you are to failure) matters more than duration. In fact, pushing hard for 20-40 minutes is often more effective than coasting through 1 + hours
Long sessions can actually work against recovery, hormone balance, and consistency. Progress comes from effort.. not hours.
So if you’re training for hours a day to “make up “ for not moving enough thinking “more is better,” remember:
➤ More intensity = more stimulus
➤ More time = more fatigue
➤ Smart training beats long training
Train hard, recover harder!
