Question

Okay, so great question. I get these kinds of questions a lot. And this time of the year, what is the best way to gain muscle and lose weight, TRX or cycling? They're both very different TRX is using your body weight. It's the straps that hang from Anchor Point, that uses your body weight for for training, whether you were trying to build muscle or to gain Mobility to your ex's, absolute wonderful for that. And then some cycling is a great cardiovascular exercise and you do spill some his leg strength for that. Depending on how much resistance you have if you're climbing, or if you're spinning, right? So they're both very different ones more. Cardiovascular ones, more strength and Mobility oriented, and it takes a combination of that, plus diet. If you want to lose weight, you can't really just exercise to lose weight. Oftentimes, it's what you're putting in your body for fuel that will determine whether or not you're going to lose the calories or burn enough calories. To compensate for the amount of food that you eat the. So it's really not as simple as that. I think doing resistance training is super important and TRX is a wonderful tool for that and riding a bike is a lot of fun and it does build a solid heart and gets the calories burnt. So I hope that helps you and keep the questions coming.
