Efficient training means making the best possible use of time and energy. Especially when both are only available to a limited extent, this is above all: well thought-out training planning.
Long working days, little free time?
You can tell a thing or two about this? No matter how much you decide to do it: Time and again, something comes up that keeps you from getting to the workout as planned? You may not be alone with this problem, but what good is it at the end? The fact remains that you can spend less time on your workout than you actually wanted.
Your use of energy: For what?
Actually, you have one thing clearly in mind: you want to make the best possible use of the little time available for your training. And in such a way that every workout, every set and every repetition brings maximum effect. This kind of physical activity seems to be the most effective way to get away from the hustle and bustle of the working day.
The cost-benefit ratio: Thinking like in the job?
You may know that from your professional life: In most cases, the effort for a measure is compared to the expected benefit. Only when the benefits outweigh the disadvantages the matter will be tackled.
This means that all the training effort will only be invested in the long term if the results are correspondingly positive. Idealism around the body cult or not: If the thing becomes too complex, it has no place in your own life plan in the long run. And again one more, who quits.
Best possible results are achieved after training
You want build-up results that satisfy you? Then you should not disturb your body, if it is busy with just this development. And this phase is the regeneration time after the previous workout, which not only caused stress to the muscles involved, but also led to microscopic damage in the fibres.
So give the hard trained body parts enough rest. This is the only way to repair the tiny injuries and restore the previous level of performance. And if you add some time to the next training stimulus after complete regeneration, you may even be able to benefit from the effect of supercompensation: The trained muscle will then be at a slightly higher performance level than before the last workout.
And that is what you want, isn’t it?
