Get Results in the Gym on a Tight Schedule

QUESTION: With my busy schedule what’s the best use of my time in the gym in order to get results ?

ANSWER: The short answer is compound movements. Allow me to provide a definition. Compound movements are exercises involving 2 or more joints. Examples are the bench press which involves  the shoulder and elbow and lunges which involve primarily the  hip and knee.

Compound movements provide  you with the benefit of  incorporating more muscles into fewer exercises. Additionally, compound movements require integration of muscle groups leading to improved functional strength and athleticism. Finally, the overall metabolic impact  of compound movements far exceeds that of any isolation/ single joint exercises.

Enjoy your workout.
