Incorporate Resistance Training


You Have to Incorporate Resistance Training
The more muscle you build, the higher your RMR will be, and the more calories you will burn every day! When your RMR is high, you will burn fat easily. Guard that muscle! Don’t let your body use it as fuel instead of good, nutritious food!

DO WHOLE BODY, MULTI-JOINT MOVEMENTS! It is a waste of time to do single-joint movements (crunches, arm curls, leg extensions, etc.) You will accomplish much more in a fraction of the time by incorporating whole-body training, and working multiple muscle groups at the same time.

When you do an intense, whole body workout, using exercises like dead lifts, squats, clean and press, pull-ups, pushups, lunges, etc, you are using every muscle in your body! HARD! Your body has to work HARD to recover from a workout like this. It is much more work than the wimpy single-joint workouts that most people are doing at the gym! In the same way the intervals increase your RMR, the whole body workouts increase your RMR and keep it increased for MUCH longer after your workout!

When you are trying to get a nice set of six-pack abs, ab exercises are the least of your worries! Remember: Abs are made in the kitchen. If you taking care of your nutrition and keeping your metabolism “stoked,” the abs will begin to show. The abs come from getting your body lean, not from crunches!!

You do not have to spend HOURS in the gym! My workouts can be done in 45 minutes 3 days a week.

•NUTRITION, NUTRITION, NUTRITION!!!

•NO SLOW, BORING CARDIO—DO H.I.G.T.

•NO SINGLE-JOINT MOVEMENTS—DO WHOLE BODY WORKOUTS
