FAQ #9: The short answer to get stronger physically is to sign-up for the right program. The preventative

programs. Continue on to get the details.

be repeated here.
Note:
Tone is not the correct word to use when it comes to describing muscles
that are strong, in shape, and of the right bulk. The correct term is muscular definition for women and muscular size for men.
If you are unhappy with your current level of strength, you might be interested to know that any change in your muscle mass does not happen overnight. It can take many months or perhaps 1 to 2 years to get the muscular strength you want. It's just the way our bodies work at the cellular level. You have to be patient when you are trying to build muscle strength.

total body movements that strengthen the shoulder, trunk, and hip
regions through integrated whole body exercises that are both
multi-planar and multi-directional.
In this way, you build
strength throughout the body. This preserves your body so you can handle
the everyday movements of life. This is especially important as you

This is another hallmark of our programs since they work to maintain your current muscle mass in the early stages and then build additional muscle mass in the later stages. A true win-win situation.
