2) How many times a week do you train?
I try to train 2 to 3 times a week.

HIIT. This is a high-intensity interval training consisting of acceleration and deceleration phases. So there is the effort at very high intensity, and then at lower intensity for recovery.

I alternate between the 2.
5) How do you keep a certain training structure or schedule?
I force myself to keep a training routine even though sometimes it's quite complicated. But to give myself the strength, I think about how far I've come so far and the results I've achieved, and I also set myself some small challenges.

I don't really have a sports corner but I have invested in some equipment. There are equipments available at the Basic-Fit webshop.

I would be a kettlebell! You can do a lot of cardio exercises but also some strengthening with it. That's what's great!

- Have a (real) goal to motivate yourself
