Exercise Intensity!

Exercise intensity should vary throughout the week.  There’s an inverse relationship between intensity and duration (e.g., increase your intensity and the duration of activity will decrease; decrease your intensity and the duration of activity will increase).  Hitting every workout with high intensity is a common mistake among men… and hitting every workout with lower intensity is a common mistake among women.  Vary your duration of physical activity, as well as your intensity level throughout the week and you’re more likely to adhere to your exercise program – as well as achieve improved results.
