| Description: | Working as a fitness professional, there is one type of question I get all the time that shows that many people are missing the big picture regarding the benefits of strength training. This popular question usually goes something like this:____“What exercise can I do to isolate my _______ (insert your muscle of choice - abs, quads, biceps, triceps, etc)?”____It doesn’t matter which muscle someone is asking about, they always seem to be asking how to ‘isolate’ it. My first response to this question is always - “Why in the world would you want to isolate it?” |
