What is cross training benefit?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Great: The benefits are many. A huge one is decreased chance of injury by overtraining one area. Depending on the routines and the end goal, there can be some carryover. You have a chance to rest the action of some muscles while training others. These will often complement each other. Less boring, so likelihood of staying with it is greater. Dynamic muscle training is far more appropriate for daily life.
