There simple…
…but effective!
Top 2 Fitness Tips
Perform Total Body workouts
You can do these using a 5 station circuit, we often use these types of circuits at our Sydney boot camps.
This way you get to work the upper body, lower body and core all in one circuit. The way we program the circuits is an upper body pull (i.e. row, chin up), lower body push (i.e. squat/lunge)
upper body push (i.e. press ups, shoulder press), core movement (i.e. plank, rusina twist), lower body pull (kettlebell swings, deadlifts).
Perform each exercise for between 50-60 seconds and have a 10-15 second rest between each station.
High Intensity Carido
Interval training (HIIT)has been scientifically proven to burn nine time more fat than regular steady state cardio and keeps the metabolism elevated for up to 48 hours after your workout.
Perform interval training after strength training or on non-strength training days at least 3 x per week.
Depending on your fitness level alternate between 10-20 seconds of maximal effort, followed by 10-20 seconds of rest. Repeat these intervals for 10 times with a 90 second rest, then perform a 2nd set. The type of cardio can vary but at our Sydney boot camps we like to use bodyweight exercises i.e. burpees, mountain climbers etc or good old fashioned sprinting and hill training.
Top 2 Diet Tips
Eat at regular intervals
You should look to eat your first meal as soon as you wake in the morning and then every 2-4 hours after to starve fat and feed the muscle. By suppyling your body with regular fuel you will keep your metabolism high and will stop your body from going in to fat storage mode.
Think fiber first
When consuming carbs Eat as many green veggies as you like to keep your belly full between meals. For optimum fat burning try to cut out starchy carbs such as bread, rice and pasta, the only time you can break this rule is immediately after your workout.
