TRX/Kettlebell classes

I am running TRX/Kettlebell classes on Saturdays at 10:30 am in the Rush Fitness Health Club in St. Maurs GAA inRush, Dublin. The classes run for 45 minutes mixing TRX and Kettlebells. These exercises work the entire body and are great for improving your muscular strength, endurance, balance and cardio.

Lifting Weights v Cardio while bulking up

In the gym, one of the questions that I get most from guys that are trying to bulk up is if doing cardio will ruin their attempt to build up muscles. If bulking up is your goal, you can still do cardio but it is important that your cardio comes after your resistance training because you need to have as much energy as possible for lifting weights since building muscles is your priority. You can also alternate between one day of resistance training and one day of cardio. Cardio exercises are still important to keep or improve your cardio fitness levels. 

Don’t forget, doing cardio for 5 minutes as a warm up is essential to prepare your body for the workout, raise the body temperature, prevent injuries and it will not compromise your resistance training at all.
