After weightlifting was tough on Taylor's back and body, she switched workouts. She now trains privately with someone from Modelfit, a popular NYC studio where instructors focus on controlled isometric movements.
"It's slow, controlled movements and targeting certain parts of your body that you wouldn't normally use if you were running or lifting weights," Taylor said. "This is more on a smaller scale but just as effective."
Though pricy, she has seen results from working with a trainer. "If it's not one-on-one or in a small group, you cheat and it doesn't work," she explained. "My trainer is super tough on me all the time — specifically, my form and the way I'm doing things. [He] makes sure I'm doing it the right way, so it's targeting the correct muscle in my body. Connecting your mind and body is the main goal. Be focused and feel it where you want to feel it. The next day I can't move and I'm sore in really random places on my body. It's a weird feeling, but you feel really good."
