I Worked Out With a Trainer For 30 Days, and Honestly, It Changed My Life

This isn't the first time I've tried switching things up — I once worked out every day for a month to see how my body would change. That experience taught me that resting is essential.

At PERFORMIX House, recovery days were built into my regimen so my body could heal between sessions. I never worked out on the weekends, and regularly took advantage of the studio's infrared sauna during the week. I also met with PERFORMIX House nutritionist Lance Parker, who urged me — beyond anything else — to drink more water and work toward a consistent bedtime and wake-up time, so I'd get an adequate amount of sleep each night.
