Muscle Gain

HIT is very healthy no matter your age or fitness level. When considering HIT Training benefits, you have to take into account every training session both on a macro level, i.e. throughout life, and on a micro level, ie immediately during and after the sporting activity. Done once a week, HIT training can bring enormous health and fitness benefits! Which ones are these?

Ahhhh ... the tiresome subject of the flexibility and long lean muscles. It's healthy when you hit the ground with your hands in front - can't you do it? Tsss tss tss... Heard many times, nowadays we don't say anything anymore. Of course, you should stretch if you have a shortening! But if not, ask back: why? Is stretching overrated? Stretching can postpone recovery after a HIT workout. So, when to do stretching and when not?

Recovery after training is as important as the training itself. But how often should you exercise in order to build muscle efficiently and not to disturb the process of muscle tissue growth? How long should you take a break between HIT workouts and what to do to relieve sore muscles? We answer these and other questions in a conversation with Chief AURUM Evangelist Julian.

When we - women - speak of a getting fit, we all basically mean one and the same thing: defined body lines. We want to look lean and have “long lean muscles” and this often motivates us to do intensive cardio, group fitness or go for a run as often as possible. Strength training often remains a taboo, not least because of the false impression that strength training makes you bulk while in reality strength training makes you fit, lean and strong.
