Hi, everyone. Welcome back. Today I have Peyton with me and we are talking about hybrid training, combining different forms of exercise to achieve different goals.

And I think a lot of people do this with trying to combine Pilates and yoga and strength training and cardio or mobility training with their strength training or there's just so

many different types of exercise. And I think the consumer is overwhelmed. Like what's the most

important and how can we ultimately reach the

goals of, for most people, longevity, overall health, body composition, and just feeling good.

So that's what I want to talk with you about today. And we have conversations about this just

like on our own all the time all the time so um

we're not speaking to an athlete who's like competing in a race we're not talking about cross

training for that because that's a completely different animal and you would train completely

different yes or if you are a dancer and you need really uh large amounts of flexibility to

be able to do certain positions or whatever.

We're not talking about that person.

We're just kind of talking about the average person who just, again, wants longevity,

health, better body composition, and feeling good.

Yeah, not talking sports specific here.

Yep, exactly.
