For the unfamiliar, periodization training may sound like a workout program that takes your menstrual cycle into account, but periodization training is actually a method that involves structuring your training to simultaneously maximize gains and minimize risk. Win-win!
“You can still move on those days, but that movement should be a walk or hike, not a HIIT workout,” says McCall.
Ultimately, periodization is a workout structure than can benefit nearly any fitness enthusiast with a goal. If you think you're a good candidate, hire a fitness professional you trust, and you'll be on your way to safe, effective #gains in no time.
