A few weeks ago, I was cleaning up my office closet and I came across some old textbooks from when I first got started as a trainer. I did a quick browse through a couple of them and many of them had the same theme for people wanting to lose weight.
Do more.
If you were doing 30 minutes of cardio, then add another 10 minutes. If you were doing 40 minutes, than you go up to 50 minutes. I kid you not, one textbook even recommended going up to 90 minutes!
Who has time for that? And since when is longer better?
It’s no wonder we’re confused, fatigued and not getting the results we deserve.
With some focused, hard work, you can smash a plateau or accelerate your fat loss with the new breakthrough research we have access to today. It doesn’t take forever and you can have fun doing it.
If you think about it, that’s how interval training came along. Interval training replaced long, boring cardio and took a fraction of the time. You can get the same results in 25 minutes as you would in 60 minutes. It was a big hit.
Then in 2012, Craig Ballantyne said something simple, yet profound and funny at the Turbulence Training Summit.
“Intervals are so 2010”.
He’s right. Fitness is a lot like the evolution of music. In the 80’s, there were cassette tapes. Then in the 90’s, we had cds. Now we get instant access with Itunes and other means. We don’t have to go to a store to get our favorite music. It’s right there for the taking and we save time.
We see that trend in fitness – it was all about the long cardio… even into the 90’s. Then we were introduced to interval training to replace boring cardio (thank goodness, right?). Now we have at our disposal a new and innovative way to replace intervals and these are called “Workout Finishers”.
This is a combination of density, short rest periods and compound movements with a fast tempo. The good news is that they take just a fraction of the time that intervals do.
But like I said, it does take hard work (there’s a reason they are short).
So today, you’ll get a taste of how these finishers work. You’ll complete a lower body finisher called “Always Swinging” and it contains what’s called a “static exercise”.
You’ll perform a “ladder” with two exercises while doing 10 reps for the Swings in each circuit.
Confused? That’s what videos are for:
So, it looks like this:
Do the following circuit 8 times, resting only when needed. In the first circuit, you’ll perform 8 reps of 1A and 1C. In the next circuit, you’ll perform 7 reps. Continue in this fashion until you complete 1 rep of each exercise. For 1B and 1D, you’ll complete 10 reps every time.
