Success Stories
"I have finally found a form of exercise that I actually enjoy with TransformHers bootcamps. I have almost dropped a whole pant size (a lot of my clothes are too big now!) and feel great after each session. It also gives me an opportunity to get outdoors more during the week which doesn't normally happen with my usual work routine."

"Never before have I enjoyed my training sessions. I have been with TransformHERS for two months and will be signing up again for the next camp. Training with Ru is such a pleasure, I'm already seeing a difference -still a long way to go but I will get there. "

"Thank you for getting me back into exercise. I had not done formal exercise for about 10 years, so what a shock to the system to get straight into it. I really enjoy the sessions even though they were tough and hard. I have felt a significant difference in the tone of my body and was pleased to see my progress at the end of the programme. I am even craving exercise and do long walks and specific body training (learnt in the sessions) everyday. "

"I really enjoyed my experience at TransformHERS. It was awesome, tough at times, but so much fun. Our trainer Sibi was great and nice to meet new people! Would recommend it to anyone wanting a great work out and have a laugh!"

Why we use Plyometric Training in TransformHERS

posted by TransformHERS on 22 Mar 13, 14:23

Categories: Fitness

Studies show that adding plyometric exercises to your workout routine can help build bone density and prevent injuries, as well as improve power, strength, and agility—the three elements that separate good athletes from the ones that win Gold, and its the easiest way to fast track your results.

Plyometrics (also referred to as "jump training") refers to movements that stretch a muscle before contracting it, like when you land in a squat jump and then quickly jump back up again.

A word of caution: Plyometric training isn’t for everyone and should only be attempted if you are fully rested, injury free, and have mastered your alignment on basic movements like the squat. Be sure to pay extra attention to your form during all of these exercises, and stop immediately if something hurts. Allow your body 1 to 2 days of rest in between training sessions, and progress gradually into the more advanced versions of the moves
