At Educogym Galway you will experience a holistic approach to your health and fitness. The gym specialises in high intensity strength training, nutrition and mind focus.
Strength training simply means any exercise which builds your body strength. It includes resistance training, bodyweight exercises and weight training.
The reason why Educogym chooses strength training is because it helps improve the strength, range of motion, and mobility of your muscles, ligaments, and tendons. This can reinforce strength around major joints like your knees, hips, and ankles to provide additional protection against injury.
Strength training makes you stronger and fitter and helps protect bone health and muscle mass. Having a higher muscle mass helps keep the weight off for good, and helps to develop better body mechanics. Strength training can also help with chronic disease management.
It is important for both men and women to engage in this style of training, however women are more prone to osteoarthritis, hence strength training plays a vital role as it increases your metabolism, bone density and muscle mass.
It is crucial when performing strength based training to ensure proper exercise technique to prevent long term injury and ensuring muscle balance. Nutrition does work together with this type of training, as it assists in the building of muscle mass and fat loss.
At Educogym, all training is supervised by qualified personal trainers ensuring all these measures are met. The team will assist you in helping to build bone strength, avoid muscle loss and speed up your metabolism. Strength training is a key to long term health.
