Billy, Lucy and Ron are three OPEX Gyms clients with very different goals.
⠀
As a 21-year-old college student, Billy’s fitness goals are to get swole and stay lean. Lucy is a new mom at the age of 31, with goals to make time for herself, feel strong and fix her back pain. Lastly, Ron is a 70-year-old retiree who wants to continue playing golf with his buddies and remain independent.
⠀
Through personalized fitness at OPEX Gyms, Billy, Lucy & Ron are able to receive fitness and nutritional programs that are tailored to their needs. It’s what all clients deserve!
⠀
Whether you’re a doctor, accountant, soccer player, parent, retiree, student, golfer or dentist–you deserve personalized fitness.
❌Myth: No pain. No gain.
✅Fact: Sore doesn’t equal effective
_
Improving your fitness may be uncomfortable at times, but being sore doesn’t necessarily mean a workout was effective. It is an indicator that a large amount of stress was placed on a muscle, which must be recovered from to gain strength.
⠀
❌Myth: I need to work harder
✅Fact: Progress requires a balance of hard and easy
_
Working hard, day in day out, can lead to hormonal disruption and overtraining. OPEX coaches balance harder days with easier ones to give you the correct dose on intensity.
⠀
❌Myth: I need to eat less
✅Fact: You need to eat better
_
Fewer calories does not always equal more pounds lost. Your body has a minimum amount of calories it needs to function, and not eating enough can cause your metabolism to slow down, preventing weight loss and even causing weight gain.
⠀
❌Myth: I need to try the latest fitness trend or class
✅Fact: Random training = random results
_
Switching from program to program based on trends is a sure way to limit your progress. The body adapts by careful progression of loads, volume, variety and well timed recovery. Be consistent if you want results!
⠀
❌Myth: Strength training means lifting heavy weights
✅Fact: Lifting heavy is only needed if it supports YOUR goals
_
Smart strength training takes into account your unique goals, training history, injuries and movement quality. As a result, every strength program looks different, from dumbbells to barbells to cables, from high reps to low reps, and from heavy weights to light weights. You will only lift heavy if it’s right for you.
The community that’s built at each OPEX Gym is unlike any other.⠀
⠀
We are all striving to live a larger life through fitness and that shared sense of purpose brings us all together.⠀
⠀
At the same time, we’re all on our own journey and have our own definition of “living.” We need a program that honors our individuality.⠀
⠀
In an OPEX Gym, we’re able to maximize our results and fun by doing what our bodies need, while surrounded by people that encourage our growth.⠀
⠀
We’re a community of individuals.⠀
