Why the Besst Workouts App Should Be Part of Your Routine

I’ve had the Besst Workouts App out there for going on two years now, and it was born out of me learning (after years and years of trying different things) that being consistent with this style of workout was not only easier for me to do since they are only 30 minutes, 3x a week…but also that they are effective. They work. You will get stronger, fitter, faster by following the schedule.  They are designed with intention so you continue to feel challenged & progress.  I’m going to share a little more about why the Besst Workouts App should be a part of your routine.

So as a trainer, putting them in an app that I could share with you every single week was basically a dream come true. I wish I could train all of my members in person but of course that wouldn’t be possible!  So through the app, I am able to be your personal trainer and share these workouts that I know you’ll love not just because they are great workouts that work, but also because they give you your time back.  They are only 30 minutes long.  So many people think that they need to be working out for an hour or more a day to see results.  There is absolutely such a thing as too much, and that goes for exercise.

Your body views exercise as a stressor.  It’s a “good” stressor, in that it has a lot of amazing benefits, but placing the body under stress is how it changes & adapts.  Having too much of a good thing in this case would leads to burn out, plateaus, lethargy, even weight gain.  By keeping my workouts short, sweet, & to the point (okay, & sweaty!) I can get you back to your day and you’ll have a boost of energy from the workout, not feel like you have nothing left for your day.  Because my whole thing that I want you to know is this:  working out and caring about your health and fitness can and should be a part of your life, but it should not dominate your life.  It should help accentuate your lifestyle, it should make things more enjoyable…for example, I can go out on spontaneous long hikes with my husband because I am conditioned to do so.  And I can do it without feeling like I’m going to pass out! Giving your body these workouts and training for a lifetime of fitness will make absolutely everything you do easier & more enjoyable.

Also, maybe you’re totally somebody who would be fine working out and hour + a day, if you had the time!  I mean who has that kind of time?  I know especially once I had Emma, the short workouts were such a blessing, but I did them even back when I had a 9-5 corporate job.  I was even able to do them at lunch a lot of times because they were short enough that I could get in, get out, and get back to work.

So I think what I want you to learn by using the Besst Workouts App is that you can do 30 minute workouts, from your house with minimal equipment, and see results.  But I also want you to learn how you can balance incorporating them in your life and still have time for other things you care about.  You can find 30 minutes to give to yourself.

One thing I hear a lot from people is that once they start following the schedule that is laid out for them (which makes it easy so you don’t have to think about what to do each day) is that it’s like a snowball effect…they work hard on their workouts and stay dedicated to them and so they care more about incorporating other healthy habits like drinking more water, eating more vegetables, getting more steps in, prioritizing healthy sleep habits, etc.  Eventually all of these things become second nature to you.

The Besst Workouts App should be a part of your routine because it’s going to give you time back, while getting results, while you work with a personal trainer…me 🙂 My members in the app can message me anytime 1-1 if they need help.  Here is a quick list of everything you get with a Besst Workouts Membership:

There’s also a “mini membership” option which is a great option for anyone who wants to try incorporating one workout a week, but to me that was really designed simply as a starting point for beginners.  To really see results in your fitness, following the full schedule is the best way to do that!

Click here to take a look inside the app & how to use it!

Click Here to join the app…I look forward to working out with you!

Bess
