Ever wondered why people dedicate a whole day to your back and biceps instead of training everything at once? We set out to find the answer…
One of the best ways to get over the motivation slump many people find themselves in right now is to take thinking out of the equation. That means finding someone else to programme your workout. If your feeling overwhelmed to the point where you can barely remember where you left your workout mat, let alone attempt to plan a 45-minute sweat sesh, there’s a myriad of online tutorials you can copy.
When you’re scrolling for inspiration, you’ll probably notice that you’re coming across either ‘upper’ or ‘lower’ body workouts. Hiny: it’s not just because they’re catchier names.
A weekly dose of expert-backed tips on everything from gut health to running.
