How To Set Up An Effective Strength Training Routine | Bailey Lau

The Health Investment Podcast with Brooke Simonson

EPISODE 220 - Bailey Lau fell in love with sports and exercise at an early age, which created her passion for helping people become the best version of themselves. She played four years on the university soccer team in the ACAC league, which is when she started training in the gym and lifting weights to better her performance on the field. After graduating, she worked as a physiotherapist aide and that helped her determine that she wanted to help people be functional and strong in a more direct way. In the episode, Bailey shares how to set up an effective strength training routine, even if you don’t have a gym membership; why jumping around to different exercises prevents progress; what lifting heavier weights can do for you…and more!
