Does CrossFit Make You Bulky? - Day 80

from Lose Weight + Build Muscle After 35: The Body Recomposition Podcast · host RAC Fitness - Robyn Creary

Why do different workouts create different-looking bodies?Why do CrossFit athletes, runners, powerlifters, bodybuilders, and physique athletes tend to develop different physiques if muscle is still muscle?COME SAY HI 📲Follow @RACFitness_ on Instagram for daily body recomposition, strength training, nutrition, and women’s fitness education.In Day 80 of the 90-Day Body Recomposition Series, we’re talking about training specificity, muscle growth, exercise selection, and how the workouts you repeatedly perform can influence your body shape and composition.Your body adapts to what you repeatedly ask it to do.So if your goal is to build muscle, grow your glutes, create an hourglass or X-frame shape, look more toned, get stronger, or improve endurance, your training needs to match that goal.We’re also talking about why sweating more, feeling the burn, being sore, or burning more calories does NOT automatically mean a workout is better for building muscle or changing your physique.Stop choosing workouts randomly. Train for the adaptation you actually wantDAY 80 RAC TARGETS​ DEFINE THE RESULTWhat do you actually want your training to change? Muscle? Strength? Endurance? Mobility? A specific physique? Define the goal, then choose training that matches it.Need a structured physique-focused plan? The RAC Recomp Collective is linked in the show notes.​ PRACTICE MIND-MUSCLE CONNECTIONDuring your next lift, identify the muscle you’re trying to train and actively focus on that muscle throughout the movement.​ WEIGH-IN WEDNESDAYStep on the scale and record the data without attaching emotion to it. One weigh-in means very little. Trends over time help drive better decisions. 🎧 Follow The Body Recomposition Revolution so you don’t miss the final 10 days of the 90-Day Body Recomposition Series.
