Train smarter, not harder – and get better results
You’re training hard, but the results are lagging. Sound familiar? Many athletes do what “works,” but aren’t getting the most out of their strength training. At Aurora Personal Training in Eindhoven, we guide people every day who want to get more out of their workouts. In this blog post, we’ll give you 5 essential tips to take your strength training to the next level—sustainably and effectively.
Do you want to get stronger or build muscle mass? Then you need to keep challenging your body. You do this with progressive overload: gradually adding more weight, repetitions, or training volume.
Tip: Track your workouts in a logbook or app. This way, you’ll see in black and white whether you’re truly making progress—or stagnating.
Lifting heavier weights is only effective if you use the correct technique. Poor form leads to injuries and reduced muscle activation.
At Aurora, we focus heavily on movement quality: from correct posture to breathing. Perfect technique = maximum muscle activation = faster results.
Without proper nutrition, results won’t come. Your muscles need fuel (carbohydrates) and building blocks (protein). And don’t forget hydration.
Our tip: Eat 1.6–2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, spread throughout the day. And make sure you have a balanced meal after your workout.
You don’t get stronger during training, but during recovery. Adequate sleep, rest days, and stress management are crucial.
At Aurora, we integrate recovery strategies into your program: from rest periods to breathing techniques and lifestyle coaching.
Without a plan, you train aimlessly. With a plan, you work purposefully on your muscle mass, strength, or fat loss. This motivates and prevents stagnation.
At Aurora Personal Training, you’ll receive a customized program, including measurable goals, timelines, and adjustments based on your progress.
The fastest way to results? Train with a personal trainer who guides you technically, mentally, and strategically. No more guesswork—just clear steps to getting stronger.
