METHODS

HIT Fitness uses proven scientific strength training techniques. Following the guidelines set by the ACSM (American College of Sports Medicine), our method of training utilizes proper technique and controlled movements when performing each exercise. Controlled repetitions eliminate momentum and force complete muscular involvement. In order for exercise to be productive, the principal of progressive overload must be applied. The principal states, "In order for a muscle to grow, strengthen, or increase performance, the body must be forced to adapt to tension that is above and beyond what is has previously experienced". Recovery time is very important in following this principal. If we impede the recovery process, there will be little or no progress. Recovery time varies from person to person, but typically requires 48-72 hours to fully recover from each exercise session. The body needs time to recover before another productive training session can occur. At HIT Fitness, we understand that strength training is an individual matter. We will work with you to design a program that will help you achieve the best results possible. Just two 20-30 minute workouts per week will lead to visible changes in your body shape, composition and most importantly improve your overall health.
