Irina is always focused on mastering fundamentals in both nutrition and training.
Most of the people are bored with basics, they want a new thing, new diet, new training approach, but the truth is very simple and not new.
There are always vegetables, proteins, carbs and fat ratio that will influence your body composition, and there are squats, deadlifts, presses, push-ups, pull-ups, when consistently progressed can create the great body for woman or man.
All other things are the details. Irina’s main focus in training her Dubai clients is teaching all clients about fundamentals. Once they can move freely and safely, the variety and fun can be easily added.
Strength training is always a foundation of her approach, it doesn’t mean that clients will lift heavy weight from first month, for someone strength is the body weight squat, for someone resistance machines.
Considering that most of the clients have a goal of weight loss, a big part of her coaching goes to nutrition and conditioning training. She is completely against the meal plans, simply because they don`t work long term, and her main focus is teaching clients how to eat food they like and creating a balance in order to get them to their desired result.
And last but not least, core training is absolutely non-negotiable for Irina, creating the strong mid-line is absolutely necessary for all people, to create a great support for the spine during the training as well as in life.
Considering that most of her clients train at home in Dubai, she always has equipment with her: different weights of dumbbells, kettlebells, KO8 suspension training, stepper and a lot of resistance bands.
