I just got back from checking up on my gym trainee. She’s sore in all the right spots — upper hamstrings, chest under the armpits, middle back — and excited about hitting the gym again. Yay! The only thing is that for my personal benefit, I can’t babysit her in weights daily, or I would never get a good workout in. So I told her today I’ll have her do straight cardio, straight fatburn. She was very agreeable. I think that’s a good plan for her anyway, because I don’t want to burn her body out and having a rest day in between weight-lifting days allows me to hit all the major muscle groups each time we do weights. It’s also optimal for body fat burn. She needs to do a lot of cardio and some toning to help bring the metabolism up.
