👉 Stop Messing Around And Start Getting Results From Your Workout Program (Part 1)
Stop Messing Around And Start Getting Results From Your Workout Program (Part 3) :
For most people, dropping fat is their objective. Three total body strength workouts per week will help you accomplish that better than body part splits. (If you really want or need to divide your workouts, go with lower / upper body split.)
Concentrate on compound exercises, which are those that use more than one muscle. Your workout routine should consist primarily of exercises like Squats, Lunges, Presses, Rows, Pushups, Deadlifts, Pulldowns, etc. Besides the fact that those exercises are more functional (similar to real life movements), you'll burn more calories doing them than you will performing isolation exercises like Bicep Curls and Tricep Kickbacks.
Ditch the long, boring steady state cardio.
If you are in the majority and your primary goal is fat loss, spending hours doing steady state cardio is not only inefficient, it increases your risk of repetitive motion injuries. A Harvard study a few years back showed that intensity and not duration is the key to preventing heart disease and dropping excess pounds.
Instead of steady state cardio, perform metabolic circuits or cardio intervals. It will take less time and be far more productive.
You can get healthier and more fit without spending hours in the gym; you just need to ignore the hype, get proper guidance, and be willing to challenge yourself.
