Workout Program Instructions:
- Rule No. 1 – No Excuses –
- This is not an easy workout, however the exercises themselves are easy to performgiven the limited resources available.
- All the exercises can be found very easily by a simple google search – they weredesigned that way
- Any exercise you do chose a weight that will allow you to get to the number of repsneeded in a difficult manner. If it is easy to get to the reps then the workout is useless,any workout is useless if you are not pushing yourself to the max.
- These workouts need some form of weight. Dumbbells obviously are most preferred. Ifyou have rubber bands great. (If you don’t have either please do the following: )o Use 1.5L Plastic water bottles as weights. When filled with water these plastic bottles create amazing resistance. In order to make them into a a weight simply put them in a gym bag and start working with.
- You need to hold at the top of every motion for at least one second to exhaust the muscle.
- Have everything ready and prepared so you are not changing weights in the middle of the exercise. I designed the exercises so that you don’t need to change much weights, but assuming you do have everything ready.
- In the fat torching circuit you need to move quickly from one exercise to the next without stopping, the key is not to rest between the exercises. Set a timer for 20 minutes and start, don’t stop until the 20 minutes are up
- Please always engage and squeeze your core in every rep of every exercise this willcreate a compound fat burning effect.
- When an exercise says top hold, it means you hold one arm at the top of the motion and then do the rep with the other arm, and then switch.
- Please focus on the mind muscle connection, where the muscle that is being trained is the one that does the contraction not you’re forearm.
- If you have access to the outdoors or a back yard or something, please do this
- Please do not forget to do the stretches for recovery after the workouts.
- If you can walk for 40 Minutes on the off days that would be more than amazing.
- Ab work is built into the program so as to maximize workout time.
- Tempo: Use tempo in all your reps meaning you go down in 2 seconds, up in 2seconds and and hold for 1 second. An easy way to count a good two seconds is (1 –onethousand, 2 one thousand). If you want to make it harder make it 3&2.
- You can use dumbbells and bands interchangeably
