I know how it can be: you're super busy, and sometimes you just don't have the luxury of taking all the time in the world at the gym.

I get it - I live that life too! 😅

So I wanted to share five tips for saving time in your weight training sessions:

1. Do an efficient warm-up: light mobility + warm up with your first exercise.
2. Come with a program: ie. the list of exercises you're going to do that day
3. Use a tracker: so you know what weight/reps you are doing that day.
4. Use supersets: this minimizes your wait time between sets
5. Be flexible: Be willing to switch the order of exercises if equipment is being used.

You'll get answers to questions like:

• How can I save time in the weight room?
• How should I warm up before lifting weights?
• Do I need to do 20 minutes of cardio before weight training?
• What kinds of mobility exercises are good to do before lifting weights?
• Where can I get a tracker for my weight training?
• What are supersets and what exercises can I superset with one another?
• What order should I do my exercises in - does it matter?
• What happens when I change the order I do my exercises in?

Enjoy the show!
