Bootcamp Workouts – Good Use To Mix Things Up

Bootcamp Workouts – Good Use To Mix Things Up

Whether you are going to a gym to lift or working out in your garage, everyone likes to (and your body needs to) take a break from weight lifting. I wrote an article about resting your body for a week after a 4-6 week intense training effort but what if you just don’t feel like going back to weight lifting. It happens, so I’m told. For me, I’ve started my day off going to the gym 3 days a week to lift for so long I wouldn’t know what else to do with myself. But for those of you that are feeling burnt out, here is an intense but fun way to keep motivated. Many cities offer classes for bootcamp workouts but you don’t need to spend extra $. Some things you should know before starting-

Bootcamp workouts• Bootcamp workouts can be done 3 days per week.
• You can use a bootcamp workouts each time, or you can pick 3-4 workouts and rotate
through them over the course of 4 weeks for targeted results.
• All exercises should be done at a controlled pace unless specified.
• All exercises are done for time rather than repetitions because of the differences in fitness levels across campers.
• If you need to make the workouts easier, simply reduce the number of times you go through a circuit (i.e. only go through a circuit once rather than twice) and take MORE REST between exercises and circuits.
• Be conservative. Focus on perfect exercise form.
• Each workout starts with a warm-up. Do NOT skip the warm-up.
• Finish each workout with stretching for the tight muscle groups.

Fat Burning Tips – Use These Tricks Of The Trade

September 15, 2018 by Rob Denny 1 Comment

Fat Burning Tips – Use These Tricks Of The Trade

Fat burning tipsThe key to a maintaining a well-toned physique and a healthy body composition is fat burning. There are many ways to approach fat burning, both in your diet and exercise routine. Each approach is effective on its own, but the best results come when you combine them, helping you to burn the most fat that you can at all times. Here are some useful fat burning tips.

STAY WELL HYDRATED
One important tip when it comes to fat burning is a very simple one: drink more water. Since our bodies are made up of over 50% water, being properly hydrated helps your body perform its most basic cellular functions better, like the transportation and burning of fat. The amount of water an individual needs every day varies depending on their activity level, but in general, you should drink at least one ounce of water per two pounds of body weight a day to stay sufficiently hydrated.

FOODS TO AVOID FOR FAT BURNING
Another good fat burning tip is to reduce your consumption of starchy carbs such as pasta, rice and potatoes. This should come as no surprise to anyone who has ever researched this subject, but it’s worth repeating because it’s a very important component of a fat burning regime. Consuming too many complex carbohydrates at once provides your body with more energy and glycogen stores than it needs, so it stores the excess as fat. This isn’t to say you should give up carbs altogether, but you should stick to 3-5 starch servings a day when you are trying to burn fat.

Spin Workout That Will Make You Sweat

Spin Workout – Yes It Can Be Fun

Like all cardio exercises that are good for you, a spin workout on a stationary bike can be very boring. Here’s a good 60 minute spin workout that will mix things up to keep you motivated. Go at your pace for as long as you can, building up to the full 60 minute workout. My gym has bikes that go up to level 25. For me, 100% climb is level 20 for my spin workout which I can keep at 55-65 rpm. Adjust to your levels. For sprinting,  I consider not being able to see the rpm number as 100%. Adjust to yours. When I’m done with this workout I’m soaked and have finished 24 oz of water.  I work out in the mornings. If you do the same, get in a good frame of mind before hitting the gym. I suggest watching this youtube video of Will Smith talking about “Law Of Attraction” it’s awesome – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5nVqeVhgQE I highly recommend morning workouts, great way to start your day. Don’t have the time? Set your alarm 90 minutes earlier right now. Problem solved. You will become much more productive throughout the day. Trust me, you just Got2ManUp! Here’s the workout broken down by song. [Read more…] about Spin Workout That Will Make You Sweat
