Ali Fitness Podcast Episode 041: CORPORATE WARRIOR LAWRENCE NEAL

http://www.ali.fitness/time-efficient... We all know the value of resistance training. Not only does it improve strength, it can reduce our chances of getting injured and help us maintain muscle mass as we age. But how much time should we devote to weight training in a given week? And how do you maximize the benefit if you only have a few minutes a couple of times a week? Lawrence Neal argues that if we emphasize time under load rather than repetition, with a focus on form over duration, two fifteen-minute sessions per week is all we really need to reap the benefits of resistance training. Lawrence is the founder of Corporate Warrior: High Intensity Training and the HIT Business Podcast and Blog. He has interviewed 90-plus world-class HIT and fitness business experts to learn the strategies for success in both health and business. He also serves as a one-on-one coach, helping people realize their own health goals in a time-efficient, effective and sustainable way. Before becoming the Corporate Warrior, Lawrence enjoyed a lucrative eight-year career in B2B technology sales. After reading Body by Science, he embraced time-efficient, high intensity training to achieve his goals in both fitness and business. Today he shares the details of his shift from an intense workout schedule of 7-10 sessions per week to a couple of 15-minute body-weight training sessions and a game of basketball. Lawrence explains what a typical session looks like and why he keeps his focus on time under load rather than repetition. He discusses the evolution of his philosophy around nutrition and why he has adopted a diet centered around high-quality proteins. Listen in to understand how Lawrence has applied his training habits to business productivity, developing an appreciation of effectiveness over efficiency to create a more balanced life!
