Training can be about more than numbers on a scale. In this episode, exercise physiologist Rob Lyon joins Raise the Bar to discuss his unique training approach and why he's chosen to focus on lifestyle changes and longevity over aesthetically based results. He explains the importance of family history and how to use it to build an effective training routine.
Rob has spent more than 20 years in the fitness industry, training all types of people. He’s delivered over 10,000 personal training sessions, but his work as a cardiac stress testing technician shifted his mindset. Today, his work is dedicated to special populations and at-risk clients such as those with diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In this conversation, he makes the case for approaching health with the same energy as fitness. He covers topics like heart screenings and how to break unhealthy diets and exercise habits and shares the simple tests he uses to measure fitness. He also gives listeners the scoop on the interval work that earned him a two-minute HYROX PB with almost no running.
