Temecula – October 13, 2026 -- Fitness 19 has released a new guide, "How to Use Visualization to Help Improve Your Performance," that shows athletes how to use mental imagery to sharpen their results.

The guide explains the science behind visualization

Visualization means imagining yourself successfully completing an action, process, or behavior. It uses all five senses and demands about the same level of concentration as a strenuous workout.

According to the guide, done correctly, visualization engages the same neural pathways that physical training uses. It also mentally prepares you for your next skill attempt. People who visualize regularly spend time focusing on success, so their brains are better prepared when opportunities arise.

Every routine looks different, but four basics apply

Visualization is personal, so no two people will have the same routine. The guide names four basics:

Temecula, Calif. – September 29, 2026 -- Fitness 19 has published a new guide, "How to Use Apps to Effectively Track Your Workouts," aimed at helping gym-goers pick the right digital tool to log their training.

Apps fall into three distinct categories

The guide sorts fitness apps into strength trackers, which log sets, reps, and rate of perceived exertion (RPE); endurance trackers, which record splits, elevation gain, and heart rate; and holistic trackers, which monitor workouts alongside nutrition, sleep, and recovery data.

Temecula, Calif. – September 18, 2026 -- Fitness 19 has released a new guide, "Is Intermittent Fasting Effective for Workouts?", aimed at helping gym-goers decide when to train while fasting.

Insulin drops accelerate fat burning during a fast

The guide explains that intermittent fasting is about timing meals, not restricting food types. When a person fasts, insulin levels drop, which speeds up fat burning. Many people notice an early dip in energy during fasted workouts, but Fitness 19 says energy levels typically stabilize after a transition period.

Muscle growth is not blocked by fasting, but protein timing matters

According to the guide, intermittent fasting does not hinder muscle growth on its own. People need to hit sufficient protein and calorie targets and schedule workouts either before or during their eating window to support muscle gains.
