For those wanting to train hard and recover quick.
This package include 30 minutes of weight based exercises followed directly by a 30 minute infrared sauna.
The reason this is a great performance session is the benefits of having an infrared sauna directly after training:
– helps to relax your muscles aiding quicker recovery
-growth hormone is crucial for repair and recovery of muscles which infrared sauna studies have proven.
-sauna use also increases blood flow to skeletal muscles, which helps keep them fueled with glucose, amino acids, fatty acids, and oxygen while removing by-products of metabolic processes such as lactic acid.
-sauna can promote muscle growth and fat loss by improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing muscle protein catabolism (plus bonus of weight training)
-the infrared sauna is designed to make you sweat once your body temperature reaches the same heat as infrared are distributing out.(Normally can take up to 15 minutes to start sweating).Whereas having an infrared directly after your workout your body temperature is already elevated, so you start sweating quicker which helps to rid more waste from your body through sweat.
-the infrared sauna helps provide a deeper, more relaxed sleep and relieve chronic tension – most likely to the release of endorphins (double whammy after exercise). So getting a deeper sleep again helps muscle repair and recovery so your muscles will get stronger and more hypertrophy will be gained from backing up a sauna directly from your weight session.
To consolidate the weights and the sauna you will complete a weight session grouping together your major muscle group exercises such as:
Squats, Deadlifts and Presses
Lunges, Pull ups and Incline presses
Or you can do splits in each session targeting your 3 groups over the week.
Legs
Chest and shoulders
Back
Your reps and sets will be dependant on your goals – power/speed/strength.
You work on a strict 30 minute window in the gym, following a plan styled to your goals, the infrared is heating up while you workout, then once workout completed you get straight into sauna to have full recovery and detox.
