🏋️♀️ EXERCISE DOSING: THE 3 ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS 🏋️♂️
When it comes to exercise, how much is enough? The answer lies in understanding exercise dosing—the key to safely and effectively improving strength, endurance, and overall fitness.
Here are 3 core components of exercise dosing:
1️⃣ Frequency:
How often are you exercising? Whether it’s daily stretching or 3 gym sessions a week, consistency is key to seeing progress.
2️⃣ Duration:
How long are your sessions? From short bursts of activity to longer workouts, the duration depends on your fitness level, goals, and the type of exercise.
3️⃣ Intensity:
How hard are you working? The effort level should match your goals—are you building power, improving cardiovascular endurance, or recovering from an injury? Adjusting intensity can help avoid overtraining or injury setbacks.
By balancing these components, you can:
✔️ Build strength
✔️ Prevent injuries
✔️ Maximise recovery and performance
Remember, exercise is not “one size fits all.” A tailored plan ensures you’re doing the right amount for your body and goals!
