So You Wanna Get “Toned?”

If I had a nickel for every person that comes to me with this goal…I’d be able to retire at 28. I would say that 9 out of 10 people that come to me for help with their training program want to get “toned.” My goal today, is to dispel the myth of toning and show you why the magazines and media have it all (mostly) wrong.

What is toning?

My Personal Training Philosophy

Before I get into my personal training philosophy I have to make a clarification. To me, a philosophy is a Magnum Opus. The things I stand by day in and day out. The things that I’ll always believe in make up my philosophy. It’s kind of like morals and fundamentals. They’re always there for me to fall back on. Beyond my philosophy is my methodology. My methods are things that change when I learn something new. Some things change more frequently than others, but the bottom line is that my methodology is what I have when I put pen to paper.

The 23 to 1 Rule

I took this idea from Eric Cressey and liked it so much that I tell every client that I work with about it. In case you haven’t heard it, here is something that you should remember while you’re working toward your health and fitness goals.

Apply the 23:1 rule. Although you may do everything correctly when you’re in the gym for ONE hour, you have TWENTY-THREE hours left in your day to screw it all up.
