Pilates: NOT an optimal choice for fat loss and altering body composition
NO TIME TO WORKOUT? THINK AGAIN... There are 168 hours in a week. Training 3 times
per week for 1-hour = only 1.79% of the entire week. That is doable. . Not convinced?
Let’s get realistic: . Work
8 hours/day at 5 days/week = 40 hours 2 hour preparation and travel time to and from work
each day (2 x 5) = 10 hours 30 minutes for each meal eaten each day (x 3 = 1.5) x 7 days =
10.5 hours Sleep time at 8 hours per night (x 7) = 56 TOTAL FOR WEEK = 116.5 . 168 total hours in week – 116.5 = 51.5
remaining hours for other things (e.g., family time, recreation, errands, relaxing, etc.). . 3 x 1-hour training sessions each week = 5.8% of the remaining 51.5 hours. 3
x 45 minute training sessions each week = 4.37% of the 51.5 remaining hours. 3 x
30 minute training sessions each week = 2.9% of the remaining 51.5 hours. . Find the time, make the time, stick with it, no excuses
