Adaptations of your Body are Specific To Training Method Employed
There are many different methods and modes for training the three different areas of your fitness level: cardiovascular, flexibility, and muscular strength. We here at Intellectual fitness break these three areas down a little further, but those are the basic three categories. We believe that a well designed program trains each individual aspect of fitness to insure you achieve a well rounded healthy being. In the subpages of the training sections we offer different approaches to training these aspects as well as layed-out organized workouts tailored to improve the targeted aspect of fitness.
