A photo of Kayla Itsines holding a dumbbell. If there are two things I wish I’d learnt earlier in my strength training journey, they would be 1) you don’t need to spend an hour plus in the gym to see results, and 2) the biggest progress comes when you follow a program that actually fits your goals and not someone else’s.
