Whether you’re new to the gym or a seasoned member at Answer is Fitness, chances are you’ve asked yourself this at some point:
The short answer? It depends on your goals.
Let’s break it down so you can make the most of every visit to our Raynham facility.
Start with strength training.
Why? Lifting weights uses up your stored carbohydrates (glycogen), so when you follow it up with cardio, your body is more likely to tap into fat stores for energy. This combo is a killer one-two punch for burning fat effectively.
Strength training absolutely comes first. Cardio can deplete your energy and tire out the muscles you need for big lifts. Save your energy for the squat rack, and get that quality lifting session in before hopping on the treadmill or bike.
Flip it: Do cardio first.
Prioritize the activity that aligns with your training goals. If you're prepping for an endurance event, hitting your cardio while your fresh helps improve your aerobic performance more effectively.
No matter what the order, always warm up first. A 5-minute light cardio warm-up preps your muscles and reduces injury risk—whether you’re lifting or running.
Let your goals be your guide.
Still not sure what’s right for you? Our certified personal trainers at Answer is Fitness in Raynham are here to help you build the perfect workout plan for your body and goals.
