I get asked often what is the best way to burn fat and build muscle. A lot of people want to know if aerobics exercise is the only way to go than doing strength training, or if the common exercises that involve cardio does more than interval training.
Just to say, with over 15 years experience helping other people, training myself to get ripped, training for sports that Ive played and spending countless hours in the gym working out, I’m very confident to know what actually works and what doesn’t.
First, I want to make sure my responses are understood. I’m going to tell you what works for people that have a limited amount of time to get there exercise in, I expect you readers do not have 90 minutes per day to exercise. Now days there is not enough time in the day to get what you want done. That’s also why there is a big disconnection between the information provided in fitness magazines to the readers who cant apply the info found in magazines because of the time deficiency.
Not enough time is available to workout 6-8 hours a week. Think about it, unless you are a tri athlete you actually need it. If you are someone that just wants to get rid of fat and build muscle you just need a system.
The main point for getting a nicer body is to use body weight exercises to get your warm up going then strength training super sets to build that muscle and then finish with interval training to get rid of the fat in a quick amount of time.
Turbulence Training is a system that was structured so that you are done with your workout in 45 minutes, just three times a week. You’ll do 5 minutes of body weight exercises to get your warm up going. This is a more effective approach then spending time walking on the treadmill, which really do not get you ready for anything besides walking more on the treadmill.
You will then move to the strength training supersets. Using two exercises done back to back with very little rest between each one. This will cut your workout time while gaining maximum results. All that is needed is 20 minutes for this. We will do basic exercises and depending on the clients goal for building muscle sometimes more bodyweight exercises.
Finally 18 minutes of interval training. A warm up followed by six short intervals that is right for the client. Then a short, low intensity recovery. Finish it with a nice cool down and that’s the workout. Only 45 minutes long, three times a week.
