16.01.2022 This is why I Metafit xx IT AIN'T NEW BUT IT WORKS! High intensity interval training has been around for a 100 years but has had a major resurgence over the past 10 years, owing in large part, to a heap of research papers extolling its benefits.... A Canadian study tested the long held belief among most exercise and medical professionals that long, slow cardio at a low intensity is superior for fat loss. In fact, they compared the impact of moderate/low intensity to high intensity interval training in hopes of finding what was superior for fat loss. One group did 20 weeks of endurance training while the other group did 15 weeks of high intensity interval training. The cost of total energy expenditure was much higher in the endurance training group than in the interval group. They found that the endurance group burned nearly twice the amount of calories during training than did the interval group. Lo and behold, skin fold measurements showed the interval training group lost more body fat than the endurance training group. This may not seem to make sense at first glance, but the team found, When the difference in the total energy cost of the program was taken into account...the subcutaneous fat loss was nine fold greater in the HIIT (interval training) program than in the ET (endurance training) program. In laymans terms, interval training trumped long, slow cardio for fat loss! The interval trainees got nine times the fat loss for every calorie burned during training.

16.01.2022 It's so important to have your rest days, walk on your non training days along with resistance training once a week.

14.01.2022 Commonly Asked Question: Should I do Metafit Everyday? Doing Metafit or any other form of true HIIT daily will quickly lead to fatigue, soreness and other signs of over-reaching. During active Metafit intervals youre pushing your body to near maximum effort. Such efforts are exhausting to your body and necessitate a greater degree of recovery time compared to an equal amount of steady state cardio. Your body doesnt recover swiftly from exercise of such high intensity. Du...ring the recovery period after a Metafit workout, your metabolic rate stays revved up for hours, and some experts say days. Thats because your body has to work hard to return your body to normal. During this time, muscles resynthesize phosphocreatine, the fuel source they use at the start of intense exercise. Plus, your body temperature has to come down, your heart and breathing rate has to drop and stress hormone levels have to fall. In addition, you have to breathe harder to repay the oxygen debt you incurred. Thats a lot of extra work your body has to do. Imagine if you asked it to do that every day. The reality is you dont NEED to do Metafit every day, assuming youre really ramping up the intensity during the active intervals. One of the things that makes Metafit so appealing is the fact you dont have to do it every day. How often should you do Metafit? Two to three times a week works best for most people. Doing daily Metafit wont give your muscles adequate time to recover or your body time to completely return to homeostasis. If you feel you can do Metafit every day, ask yourself if youre really working hard enough when youre engaged in an interval routine. Metafit isnt moderate intensity cardio separated by rest intervals. If you do it this way, you wont get the same degree of post exercise after burn or improvements in your anaerobic energy system.

09.01.2022 Merry Xmas Metafitters, see you all in 2016,have a safe fun festive season THINKING ABOUT TRYING A METAFIT CLASS? Metafit Client FAQs What is HIIT?... HIIT is an acronym for High Intensity Interval Training this type of training involves intervals of short-burst high-intensity activity interspersed by recovery that aims to improve aerobic fitness. Because intensity is high, the duration of the session is short any longer than 30 minutes and its not a HIIT workout. Metafit workouts are based on the HIIT principle that results in an efficient and effective form of exercise. Do I need to be fit to do a metafit session? No. The exercises performed in a metafit session can be regressed or progressed to suit all fitness levels and abilities. Everyone is different and has their own strengths and weaknesses you work to your maximum and the metafit coach will ensure you are doing the exercise at a level that is appropriate for you. How is metafit different? Metafit is un-choreographed, its not a dance or aerobics class. It is a selection of bodyweight exercises (think old-school exercises such as push-ups, squats, burpees, etc) done to great music with voice commands. Your metafit coach will instruct correct technique for each exercise and assist you with maintaining correct form. Is it really just 30 minutes? Yes. All metafit sessions include a dynamic mobilisation warm-up, the main metafit set depending upon the workout selected can last between 17-23 minutes. How many times a week should I do a metafit session? A growing body of research has found that completing 3 metafit or any HIIT sessions per week has the same or superior health and fitness benefits compared to continuous aerobic exercise. In comparison, the public health recommendation for continuous moderate aerobic exercise is at least 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week. Im training for a 10km fun run. Will metafit help or hinder preparing for this event? Definitely help. Reviews have found that adding HIIT such as metafit alongside your aerobic training (running, riding, swimming) improves aerobic fitness outcomes over and above what aerobic training alone can do. In addition, the regular completion of bodyweight exercises improves leg, upper body and core strength, which further enhances your running ability. Do I need any special equipment or clothing? No, but a water bottle, workout towel and an exercise mat will make your experience a little more comfortable. Please wear good supportive footwear (cross trainers or running shoes are ideal) and exercise or training clothing that is breathable and provides support in all the right places!

09.01.2022 New release... BADBOY!! Can't wait to practice and release this one, looks great so far

08.01.2022 GREAT REASONS TO DO METAFIT 1. Its really intense When we talk about the high intensity of Metafit, we mean it. Emphasis on the high. This interval training is seriously intense. Imagine the the most intense thing you can think of, and double it. It's even more intense than that. ... 2. But it only lasts seconds Thats right, seconds. Each burst of exercise will only last around 20-30 seconds. Thats like the the time it takes to read the length of this paragraph. So by the time youve finished reading this, itll pretty much be time to rest. Win! 3. You continue burning fat long after the workout's finished Due to the intensity of Metafit the body will continue to burn fat for up to 48 hours after the workout. So when youre at home eating a watching the latest episode of home and away or xfactor, your body is still torching a shed load of fat. 4. You get a nice little break The hard work from all the exercising comes with a lovely bit of regular respite, which allows you time to replenish your energy stores (and have a little cry) before you start your next twenty or thirty seconds intense work. 5. It burns way more fat than other workouts You'll not only burn calories but also torches fat too! Due to the intense exertion, your resting metabolic rate increases, helping to burn more fat than other moderate exercise regimes. 6. It's a pretty speedy workout Doing three 30 minute Metafit sessions weekly will be plenty to begin seeing results. Want to put that into perspective? Thats about the same time it takes to watch one episode of your favourite sitcom. 7. So you can fit it around your schedule Due to the short nature of Metafit, its easy to fit around a busy schedule: Only 30mins, you can no longer use the excuse that you dont have time to work out. 8. It can lower glucose levels It turns out that, whilst being great for busy people, it's also great for people who suffer from diabetes. A study in Denmark showed that, over 12 weeks of high intensity interval walking for patients with Type 2 diabetes, their blood glucose levels were better controlled using this method of exercise rather than continuous moderate exercise, despite burning the same amount of calories. 9. It can help you get better at other sports Metafit can help increase speed, agility and power for sports such as football or athletics. So if you ever wanted to take up a new sporty hobby such as tennis, this style of training preps your body so that you'll be able to dart around the court and hit those balls like a pro. Two birds, one stone.

06.01.2022 EXECUTE METAFIT RIGHT To execute Metafit right, you need to approach it like you would your toughest session. No half reps, no fancy moves, no talking; every rep or in this case interval, counts. With a Metafit session only lasting between 16-24 minutes, the only thing you need to think about it working as hard as possible. Your Metafit coach will be there to support, guide and motivate you through the session. Think big movements and maximum effort.

01.01.2022 Regular Metafit workouts will make you fitter, stronger and leaner and will also take your energy levels through the roof. But if all thats not enough to encourage you to give it a go, here are a few more reasons.... 1. It Only Takes 25 Minutes Who has time to go to the gym for two hours these days? One of the biggest excuses I hear for not exercising is time. But Metafit is perfect for people with a busy schedule and if you can find 25 minutes in your day, youll be burning... fat for fun in no time. Metafit involves short bursts of intense exercise, followed by recovery periods of low intensity activity or rest. Do Metafit 2-3 times a week and see ya later, body fat! 2. Youll Be Burning Fat For Hours After Youve Finished Training Unlike low intensity cardio such as jogging, Metafit will have you burning calories for hours and hours after you have finished your workout. We call this the afterburn effect. During this time your metabolic rate is boosted, so your body continues to burn more calories and more fat. The more intense the workout, the greater the effects will be, so you should always aim to push yourself as hard as you can. 3. Metafit Can Be Tailored To Your Fitness Levels Metafit workouts can be tailored to your fitness levels, so whether youre 20 years old or 50, a solid Metafit session is all relative to your personal level of fitness. Our qualified coaches can adapt the exercises to suit you. The aim is to get your heart rate up to near maximal levels during the intense sets, before recovering during the rest periods. 4. Youll Feel Like An Absolute Winner Afterwards Every Metafit session should be tough, but its all over in around 25 minutes and you will feel like an absolute winner after each session. And when your body fat starts to melt away and you become fitter, stronger and leaner, it will all be worth it.
