Who Else Wants To Get In Shape in 35 Minutes?
Most of the physical fitness trainers, and coaches agree thatdoing some sort of resistance training, and cardio training, setsup a good foundation for all around fitness. What most peoplelike to do is alternate days. M-W-F do resistance training and onTues-thurs-sat do aerobic training or some other variation.Nowthis is not a bad thing but it can be very time consuming and forpeople who have real busy lives it might be hard to make thiskind of commitment. I say why not do both in one training session? Now I am notsaying to do both in the same day. I am talking about doing aworkout for about 30-40 minutes that gives you resistance andcardio for that time frame. Instead of making them separate,combine them into a more efficient workout. Another words you perform a resistance exercise, it could be yourown bodyweight, weights, cables, tubing, it doesn't matter.Immediately after this is completed you perform a cardiomovement. It could be running in place, jumping jacks, squatthrusts, anything that is aerobic for about (30) seconds, andthen continue on to the next movement. Doing say 6-8 resistanceexercises and in between (30 seconds of aerobics) for let's say3 sets. Now these 3 sets are without resting you are continuallymoving for roughly 35 minutes. Let me give you an example: Let's use weights. 1}.10 reps oflunges, then run in place. 2} 10 reps of squats, then run inplace. 3}.10 reps of bicep curls, now run in place. 4} 10 repsof dips or pushups, now run in place. You can choose any exerciseyou want just hit all major bodyparts. Like I said choose 6-8resistance exercises and 30 seconds of aerobics and do at least3 sets alternating. This is fat burning exercise. Believe me when I tell you this is not for the faint of heart.You will be breathing heavily quickly. The beauty is it savestime and cuts workout time in half. When I first tried this Idid make it thru the 3 sets but it wasn't easy. If you have tostop do so. Catch a breadth and then complete it. You willgradually improve as you keep doing this exercise protocol. Now for the people who don't have weights at home or do not wantto do this at their local workout establisment, or are justlooking for a change of pace, I have found the perfectalternative. A complete system for under $50. For men and women.You get a 3 cable color system for tension, a video to followalong,a manual, and travel bag. It's very portable.
