Elevate your Resting Metabolic Rate to invigorate physical energy, become toned, defined and melt away body fat!

After a strength training workout, your body continues to burn extra calories during recovery. This phenomenon is called Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) or the “afterburn effect.” Strength training, especially when done with intensity, supercharges your metabolic rate for hours after the workout, never actually returning back to its original rate due to increasing lean muscle mass!

Strength training improves insulin sensitivity so your bodies better equipped to manage and utilise carbohydrates for energy. This helps regulate blood sugar levels, provides better fat management and more efficient energy use.

As you gain muscle your bodies more effective at burning fat for fuel. Strength training doesn’t just build muscle—it reduces body fat.

Strength training increases the production of certain hormones that support fat loss and muscle building, like growth hormone and testosterone. These hormones play a key role in regulating metabolism, supporting muscle repair, and fat oxidation.

The effects of strength training are cumulative. Over time, the increase in lean muscle mass and strength leads to overall higher metabolic rate.
