THE PROBLEM
Our modern lifestyles - long sitting hours, slouching over desk/laptop/phone, long driving hours etc - continually disrupt the natural bio-mechanical balance of our bodies!
We are simply carrying the daily accumulating effects of this unnatural lifestyle into everything we do, including our workouts!
THE SOLUTION
Do not let it accumulate! Simple!

Key definitions:
HIIT:
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a form of interval training, a cardiovascular exercise strategy alternating short periods of intense anaerobic exercise with less intense recovery periods, until too exhausted to continue.
Tempo Training:
Tempo training is adding constant and measured speed into the workout. It helps in building more muscles, increasing strength and burning fat fast. The purpose of tempo training is to hold the worked muscle under positive tension simulation for longer period at a steady speed.
But then, keeping a tab of either time or repetitions mentally takes our focus away from the essential aspects like breathing and form etc. And that is where the unique Live Voice-Coach feature of the OCoach app really comes into play!
