Frequently Asked Questions

How can I train for endurance with a busy helpdesk schedule?

Focus on high-intensity interval training (HIIT) sessions that last 20-30 minutes, allowing you to get an effective workout before or after your shift without needing hours at the gym.

Does sitting all day affect my endurance performance?

Yes, prolonged sitting tightens hip flexors and weakens glutes. Incorporating daily mobility work is essential to ensure your body is primed for endurance activities.
