Balancing strength with endurance
As many of you know, I am a group fitness instructor, but I also love to lift heavy. Once upon a time I took ballet and my director is asking me to brush up on my ballet skills. My problem is that I lack muscular endurance in my upper body. Does anyone have any suggestions to build that up while still getting my lifting in? Thanks!
Hi Wendy,
If you have no medical restrictions at the moment, really like weight lifting and are trying to build endurance you can try kettlebell training. A qualtiy and dynamic kettlebell routine will strong, dense, lean muscle that can go forever and actually increase flexibility. Just make sure the weight of the bell is appropriate and not too heavy.
