Aerobics vs. Strength Training
At Our Ladue Gym

If you’ve made the commitment to improve your health or fitness level, our Ladue gym is just what you’re looking for! If your goals are to lose weight, you may think that strength training isn’t for you – after all, you want to get lean, not bulk up! On the other side of the coin, weight lifters may consider aerobic training a waste of time. The truth is, both of these disciplines are important and will help you reach your goals, no matter what they are. In this article, we’ll show you why you should incorporate both aerobics and strength training at our Ladue gym.

Whatever your goals are, I’m confident our customized programs can help you achieve them. Sign up for a free consultation and try us risk free!

Why aerobics is good for you

Weight lifters should take heart – aerobics doesn’t necessarily mean donning spandex and jumping around to electronic music. Aerobic exercise, or cardio exercise, is any exercise that raises your heart rate. There are dozens of benefits of adding an aerobic work out to your fitness regime. It makes your heart stronger, increases your lung capacity, burns fat and helps raise the metabolism. Even if your goals don’t include losing fat, aerobics can be beneficial, as it can help increase your energy, giving you the strength to increase the number of weight lifting reps or keep up with the ball on the tennis court.

A good aerobic work out is one in which the body reaches its target heart rate and sustains it anywhere from ten to twenty minutes at a time. When it comes to aerobic exercise, the possibilities are endless; exercises could include running, cycling, swimming, even walking, not to mention the dozens of cardio machines available at our Ladue gym.

Why strength training is good for you

Those that are trying to lose weight may dismiss strength training as unnecessary, but the truth is that is can be very beneficial. Just as aerobic exercise helps raise the metabolism, strength training can help sustain it. This is because the more muscle mass you have, the more calories you’ll burn over the course of a day. But that doesn’t mean you’ll have to bulk up muscle mass in order to reap the benefits – even those with lean muscles can profit.

In addition to helping the body burn calories more efficiently, benefits of strength training include protecting the joints and even preventing the risk of osteoporosis, as strength training helps build healthy bones as well as muscles. There is a wide variety of strength training techniques, including machines that can be found at our Ladue gym that are great for beginners, as well as free weights, which can also aid in balance and coordination.

Both aerobics and strength training can help you reach your goal

It is widely accepted today by both researchers and fitness professionals that a fitness routine that incorporates both aerobics and strength training is the best way to reach your fitness goals. Each of these disciplines compliments the other and will help, no matter what your fitness goals are, from losing weight to becoming a better, faster, or stronger athlete, so try to include three sessions of aerobics per week and two sessions of strength training at our Ladue gym, and you’ll see the difference in no time!

If you have questions or need an extra push, contact a personal trainer at our Ladue gym. A personal trainer will be able to motivate you to challenge yourself and they’ll ensure you reach your fitness goals!
