My Secret to Freedom from Machines

The cardiovascular fitness equipment demands that you stay on it a long time every time you work out. You might want to reclaim some of that time especially since it’s working against your fat loss goals. Do some six pack ab exercises too.

I want to suggest that the cardio be sqapped with some intervals and resistance exercises. In fact, this is the best approach to fat loss, so you can get rid of the machines.

You ought to have the best, right? Now you can be your best and have more of the day for your other things.The risk of damaging your body is pretty high on the cardio machines, so you’ll have less risk doing strength and intervals.

Some of you are probably sad at the thought of missing your TV shows that you watch while on the treadmill.

You will be able to find ways to use the machines differently to get more results faster. What I mean is that you should try the intervals on the machines by running hard for half a minute and then recover for a minute.

Start with a 5 min. warming up time, then do 6 sequences of the intervals. You can wind down for 5 min. before quitting.Those who need something different sometimes, here are some hints on making intervals work for you.

You can get lean using nothing but an exercise sphere and your bodyweight. You might want to share these on a weight loss forum.

No breaks should be taken as you transition from one exercise to another. Be sure to do this sequence one time.

1. Medicine ball wood choppers. Do 20 seconds of wood choppers and then hold the ball over head for 10 seconds. Do this pair 8 times.

2. Thrusting squats.For two repetitions, thrust for twenty secs. followed by push up posture for ten secs.

3. Run stationary exageratting the knee lift and plank posture. Sprint for 20 seconds in place raising up your knees. Then spend 10 seconds in push up position. Do this part 8 times.

4. Thrusting squats.Twice do this pair: twenty secs of squat thrusts and then ten secs. in push up posture.There you go: a couple ways to get oout of the gym faster while getting leaner.
