Give Your Workout a Break! split workouts

Hello Atlanta personal training, group, I found this article about breaking up your workouts, I would tend to agree with this but from my experience it is better and more practical to do 2 40 minute workout several hour appart, I find that I would have more energy 4-5 hours after a workout, the below article talkes about breaking up by 20 minutes, seems to have some merits, I really like to and believe in shock works meaning to very your workouts and durations of time and exercises.

Thought it was a interesting article and thought you might like it.
Give Your Workout a Break

Want to burn more fat and calories when you walk, swim, or run? Then take a break.

The rate at which your body burns fuel may be boosted even higher if you break up a long cardio session into two back-to-back 30-minute sessions with a 20-minute break in between. Breather, anyone? (see below ↓)

Start. Stop. Repeat.
How can scientists tell that a 20-minute rest helps rev up your fat burning? Men in a study who did just that (in between 30-minute sessions on a stationary bike) showed elevated blood levels of free fatty acids -- higher blood levels than those produced during a single 60-minute cycling session. And that bump in free fatty acids is a sign of increased fat burning: Circulating blood levels of free fatty acids go up when your body starts to break down fat.

More Ways to Burn Fat
Here are a few more ways to boost the fat- and calorie-burning powers of your power workouts:
Do cardio before strength training. Here's why . . .
Eat more of this.
Build some muscle. The more muscle you have, the more readily your body burns calories.

Workout parties in Atlanta.

Workout parties in Atlanta.
Instead of the same old party why not make it a workout party, the party would involve different exercise stations, and healthy snacks, these would be modified for different groups. This is a healthy alternative to a regular parties, this could also be the kickoff for a on going exercise program or bridal boot camp etc.

The Cost Of Being Overweight Versus The Cost Of A Personal Trainer

another way to think about fitness...

"(Personal Training) can be expensive, but so is the loss of income and wealth when the child becomes ill with a lifestyle-related disease like Type 2 diabetes, heart disease or cancer." via Washington Post

The above quote applies to adults and children alike. Would you rather pay $400 a month of medical bills or $400 a month to a personal trainer?

Something to think about.
