Unlocking the Power of Sprinting
Hey Squadies,
Phil here, and I've got some exciting news for you. If you haven't already checked it out, I've recently dropped a set of brand-new treadmill workouts in the on-demand section of the LEANSQUAD app. From heart-pumping 10-minute bursts to challenging 20-minute sessions, these are designed to take your fitness journey to the next level.
THE NAME OF THE LEAN GAME IS SPRINTING 🏃♀️💨
Now, let's dive into one of my favourite topics – sprinting. Firstly, do not fear… sprinting is for EVERYONE. It is not about achieving a certain speed or running as fast as Usain Bolt but instead, at its core it’s just about you running as fast as you can during the sprint.
Secondly, if you embrace principle number one and truly challenge yourself to give your best when we sprint you will literally unlock physiological and health benefits unlike ever before (it’s actually crazy because it’s been years since I incorporated sprint training into my routines but since reintroducing it to film these workouts, my health metrics have sky rocketed, even I am in a bit of disbelief as to how powerful and beneficial these workouts are)!!! My HRV has drastically increased along with improved sleep and other metrics!
Torches Fat Like Crazy: When it comes to fat loss, sprinting is a beast. The high-intensity nature of sprints pushes your metabolism into overdrive, torching calories during and after your workout. It's not just about the sweat; it's about that satisfying burn that lingers.
Mastering Hormones: Now, let's talk hormones – the magic behind building a lean, strong body. Sprinting triggers an upwards of a 700% increase in release of growth hormone and testosterone, key players in sculpting muscle and shedding fat. And ladies, these hormones are your fitness allies, not enemies! For some reason these hormones often contain a “manly” association with females but the truth is women need these, especially as we age. They will help with massively improving our metabolic health, bone density and energy levels! Embrace the strength and vitality they bring.
Anti-Aging Magic: Sprinting isn't just a workout; it's a secret weapon against aging. The high-intensity bursts stimulate the production of human growth hormone (HGH), a natural fountain of youth. Feel good, look good – that's the sprinting magic.
Benefits for Women: Ladies, this one's especially for you. Sprinting is a fantastic way to shape your physique without spending hours on the treadmill. It's about efficiency and effectiveness. You'll build strength, tone muscles, and boost your metabolism – all in a fraction of the time.
How Often for Females? Now, about the frequency. I often get asked how often women should sprint. It's not about overdoing it; two to three sessions a week can work wonders. Quality over quantity is the key. Listen to your body, find your rhythm, and enjoy the journey.
