What is Metabolic Conditioning (MetCon)?

​What is Metabolic Conditioning (MetCon)? MetCon is simply short for metabolic conditioning. This general term has recently separated itself from the old, tried-and-true steady-state cardiovascular form of exercise such as distance running or long sessions on the elliptical and has been more aptly assigned to more challenging and dynamic sessions of interval-style training. Utilizing circuits, complexes and, at times, very specific and timed groups of exercises, MetCon may consist of bodyweight moves, equipment from kettlebells to medicine balls and other forms of familiar activities such as sprints. The take-home message here is that it doesn’t have to consist of 45 minutes of low-intensity treadmill walking or long sessions on the recumbent bike. MetCon uses a myriad of variables to be highly effective while keeping your workouts fun, interesting and unpredictable.
