There are FOUR components to be addressed when aiming to develop muscle shape and definition.

1. Resistance Training

Training with resistance is essential when developing muscle shape and definition. For muscles to change shape, they need to work with increased loads than they are typically usedto. To continually develop muscle shape and definition any resistance programme needs to be progressed frequently to ensure that the work load is increased effectively.

2. Personal Training

Personal Training is the ideal way to agree the key solutions that need to be focused on each day to achieve your goals. Guidance and motivation from one of our Personal Trainers will ensure the correct exercises are performed to deliver effective muscle shape, whilst ensuring that tolerable levels of stress are applied to the body’s joints. Monitoring and recording resistance loads will ensure your workout is always challenging, as well as providing you with confidence that your workout is as effective as possible.

3. Nutrition

Developing muscle shape requires a focus on nutrition. Our food choices and eating habits such as the timing of our meals, have a significant impact on our bodies response to exercise. Making the right food choices at the right time is essential for losing body fat and repairing muscles which ultimately determine muscle shape.

4. Cardio Training

Cardio training should support any muscle shaping programme as it serves as a method of loading certain muscle groups, making them more enduring. The more enduring our muscles are, the faster they can recover from training and the faster they will shape.
