Strength training has become a lot more popular with the rise of so called ‘Fitspos’ on social media and the hashtag ‘gains’. Vanity aside though strength training has myriad health benefits in that it can help to protect joints from injury, maintain and improve bone density and muscle mass, as well increased range of mobility. Given its increased rise in health and fitness we wanted to put this to the test. No fancy gym kits or snazzy classes needed but just tried and tested exercises. 

The rules:

Based on a structured whole body online training programme which includes using a combination of weights and body weight resistance exercises. Rose has to do 3-4 sessions per week of 45-60 minutes per session for 6 weeks.

Does Rose surprise herself and find a new way of exercising? Listen in to find out!
