Below is a variety of strength sets that are some of Mackenzie's faves, and are the result of collaboration with her pal & professional trainer Kiana York < NASM CPT, NASM YES, USAW 1 >. As Mackenzie reflects, "Kiana has helped me with my strength training and gains I’ve never seen before," she says. Indeed; no one can do it alone. Please Note: As always, we encourage you to consult with a training professional before undertaking any new exercises, and make proper consideration of your fitness levels as you try out new things.
