Mostly Dating 95. SONIA HARE on the Science Behind Strength Training & How to Exercise Effectively
Welcome back! Today we are joined by Sonia Hare, certified fitness trainer and holistic nutritionist and founder of the Sonia Series. We discovered Sonia’s workouts a few months ago and have seen firsthand how impactful her program is. Having grown up a dancer with parents who both worked in the fitness industry, Sonia has truly spent a lifetime learning about fitness and nutrition and the science behind the workouts she teaches.
What we talk about with Sonia:
- The importance of weight training in your fitness routine
- Why our bodies need rest & what is happening during that downtime
- How weight training specifically helps you build LEAN muscle, and does NOT make you "bulky"
- The role nutrition plays in a healthy lifestyle
- Dating someone with different fitness levels/nutritional habits/etc.
- How often you "should" be working out
- Why fitness is not one size fits all
- How to choose the right size weights for your workouts
- How to start to develop a workout routine
- Why you sometimes feel sore after a workout and sometimes don't
- Sonia's other favorite ways to relieve stress & stay balanced
