MRT with JESS

 

Consistency is Key.

I’ve been coaching ‘MRT with Jess’ on Zoom since early 2018. Four and a half years later, we are still going strong, literally. MRT (Metabolic Resistance Training) is a method that integrates intense and effective cardiovascular and strength training.

MRT works by maximizing your body’s energy systems through a combination of anaerobic and aerobic (cardio) exercise. As a result, calories are burned both during and after the workout, allowing for an extended period of calorie burn.

I have found that the greatest success comes with earlier morning workouts and CONSISTENCY. If you make it part of a morning makeover, you WILL see results.

 

More about ‘MRT

with Jess’

MRT is an amazing workout. Because it is challenging, programming can place great demands on the aerobic and anaerobic systems (simultaneously). Fat is burned, endurance is increased, and muscle strength is gained. However, this requires a large expenditure of energy.

This means it can leave you feeling completely exhausted and for many this can be an demotivational factor. At this pace, you may set yourself up for a risk of injury. Therefore, I place emphasis on form and function. We keep our form, first and foremost, until we fatigue.

I have designed MRT with Jess for intermediate to advanced fitness enthusiasts. One must have basic knowledge of strength training prior to metabolic conditioning. No matter your level of training, we all are always at risk of injury. Therefore, I emphasize the importance of mobility and flexibility training, nutrition, mindfulness, and recovery (aka overtraining prevention). I provide you with a loose schedule of recovery options and activities for each week.

We are consistently checking in with our energy levels and bodies, adjusting our volumes and intensities accordingly . If need be, we can decrease these variables and work our way up to higher intensity. We can also adjust rest periods and rep totals. Our goal is to try to leave the workouts without feeling cheated, rather feeling that it was challenging.
