Cardio workouts at home: http://www.sixpackshortcuts.com?c=1&k=74

In this video, I show a great home cardio workout that I’ve been doing lately. This workout is great for losing fat and building a ripped beach body. It’s many times more effective than long, slow cardio workouts like treadmill jogging — and it only takes three minutes! It’s definitely one of the best cardio workouts at home that I know of.

Best of all, this home cardio workout can be done with NO EQUIPMENT, and no gym membership needed. It’s extremely simple — you just have to learn three basic bodyweight exercises to do it.

Here’s how to do this home cardio workout:

Squat thrust — 10 reps
Mountain Climber — 10 reps (counting 1-2-3-ONE-1-2-3-TWO)
Squat Jump — 10 reps

Repeat these exercises until you have done 100 reps total. You will end up doing 40 squat thrusts, 30 mountain climbers, and 30 squat jumps total.

Credit for inventing this home cardio workout goes to DAVE GINSBERG, Dan’s jiu-jitsu coach in Boston. If you’re in the Boston area Dave is a top notch Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt, and highly recommended for martial arts instruction. He’s also a great personal trainer and has many more great workouts like this which are very effective, and can be done with minimal equipment.

To start off workout A from the Turbulence Training intermediate workout, we will start out with a superset of dumbbell split squats and dumbbell incline chest presses.

So, for the split squat you will get in a split stance, which is a slightly exaggerated step. Hold the dumbbells by your sides. However, if you are new to this exercise then you can do the split squat without weights or do it next to a wall or a beam to get some balance. The lead leg in this exercise is going to do all of the work. You will be balanced on the ball of your back foot, and a lot of weight is going to be on the heel of your front leg. So, in a nice proud position, drop straight down, letting your knee drop just above the ground, and then drive through the front leg to come back up. Complete all 8 repetitions for one side and then switch to the other side. You will know if you are using too much weight if your chest is sagged forward and your posture is deviated from what it should be.

Moving right into the dumbbell incline chest press, set the incline at about 45 degrees and place the dumbbells at chest height. Press up and in, and then down and out for 8 repetitions. Now rest one minute and then repeat 2 more times for a total of 3 supersets.

In the second superset of workout A you are going to do 15 repetitions of two bodyweight exercises, the stability ball leg curl and pushups. For the stability ball leg curl, you want to push your heels into the ball and bridge your hips up, using the back of your legs to curl the ball in while keeping your body in a straight line.

After all the repetitions for the leg curls are done, move without rest into pushups. If you cannot do 15 regular pushups, then do kneeling pushups. With your abs braced and body in a straight line, bring your chest to the floor and then drive through your triceps, shoulders, and chest to push back up. Again, rest one minute and then repeat 2 more times for a total of 3 supersets.

In the final superset of workout A, you’re going to do a difficult abdominal exercise, the stability ball jackknife, followed by a very difficult upper back exercise, the dumbbell rear deltoid raise.

To get into position for the stability ball jackknife, place your elbows on a bench and your feet on a stability ball, keeping your body in a straight line. Once you’re in position, brace your abs, and tuck your knees up to the chest and then back out. Repeat this for 10 repetitions in total.

Immediately following the jackknives, you will perform 10 repetitions of the rear deltoid raise. For this, you will bend your knees, push your hips back, brace your abs, and keep your chest up. Next, bend forward a bit and then raise the dumbbells out to the side, squeezing the shoulder blades together at the top of the movement. Make sure you are nice and controlled going both ways. This exercise will work the back of the shoulder, which tends to be a very weak spot for individuals who sit at a desk all day. Rest one minute and then repeat the superset 2 more times for 3 in total.

You can then move on to the interval training portion of the workout and then finish off with stretching. That’s workout A from the intermediate Turbulence Training program.

This is early May footage I was working on before I went into the hospital. Since the start of the year we’ve been incorporating calisthenics training with various dumbbell exercises. We Hit the Barz first then burn out with the iron. We started off with 35-55lbs dumbbells and now progressed to 65 & 80lbs. The Highlandaz has become more than just a group of guys working out, we’re a family bounded by one common cause and that is fitness. Each one of us has their own strengths & weaknesses, but the training that we put in allows us to strengthen individually and grow as a whole.

On a personal note, for me to be in the presence of the one who set this whole “Bar world” off for me – I was thrusted into this after seein the Bartnedaz video with him doin “Elevators, Hand stand dips, and One arm pull ups”, ALL WITH TIMS ON! lol My dude Beast came thru(as he does from time to time) and as always was an honor Hittin the Barz with him.

Also thanks again to all those who showed love & support during my troubled time, my family & I appreciate you all.

Go to http://BuildMuscleBurnFat.info/ my FREE workout plan Build Muscle and Burn Fat FAST AS HELL!

What if I told you that you could burn more fat by doing less cardio? Well, with High Intensity Interval Training (also known as HIIT) you can do just that, burn more fat while spending less time in the gym. In this article I will explain how to get the best results from this new and cutting-edge type of cardiovascular training.

You have probably been told, just like the rest of us, that in order to burn the greatest amount of fat you need to do cardio for 20 to 60 minutes at a moderate intensity. This will indeed melt the fat away, but HIIT is a more efficient and athlete-friendly way to train and burn fat at the same time.

How HIIT Works

With HIIT, you will be working harder than you normally work but for about a quarter to a half of the time that you would normally spend on the cardio machine of your choice. HIIT is so intense and effective that you only need 15 to 20 minutes, tops!

Here’s What You Do:

Pick the cardio machine of your choice (treadmill, elliptical, rower, bike, swimming) and perform a 5 minute warm-up.

Then take time to stretch properly and you are ready to begin.

Start at a moderate pace for 1 minute, then crank up the pace to 90 or 95% of your Maximum Heart Rate (MHR).

Continue at this effort for 15 to 20 seconds, then slow down to your starting pace for another minute followed by another all-out sprint for 15 to 20 seconds.

Or do like me and jump as high as you can, as fast as you can for 30 sec and rest for 30 sec

Do this for no more than 15 minutes.

After that finish your workout by cooling down for 5 minutes and thoroughly stretch afterwards.

If you perform this right I guarantee that you will be totally exhausted after 20 minutes of this.

Benefits Of HIIT

A study at Laval University in Quebec, Canada found that HIIT cardio helped trainees loose nine (yes, 9!) times more fat than those who trained the traditional way (moderate speed for 20-60 minutes). Combine HIIT with your weight program and you boost your metabolism through the roof!

The Reason HIIT Is So Successful Is This:

When you work at a high intensity, you burn more total calories per pound of body weight.
High Intensity workouts such as weight training and HIIT boost growth hormone levels.
Elevates the body’s metabolism throughout the entire day!
What does this mean for you? The more calories that you burn in a day, the more weight you are able to lose. Even if weight loss is not your goal, HIIT is for you. Athletes will see better gains from doing HIIT cardio as opposed to traditional cardio.

Unless you are training for a marathon, you do not keep a constant pace during your sport. All sports whether it be soccer or football, even baseball or basketball have a point where you need to change gears and hit a full sprint.

HIIT will not only help your cardiovascular system, but will train the anaerobic ATP/CP system as well. Not only will you increase your cardiovascular endurance, but improve your raw speed and explosiveness as well!

What Is ATP?
Otherwise known as Adenosine TriPhosphate, ATP is critical to the release of energy. ATP is an adenosine-derived nucleotide that supplies large amounts of energy to cells for various biochemical processes, including muscle contraction and sugar metabolism, through its hydrolysis to ADP.

Conclusion

I will let the study speak for itself. HIIT provides a more effective workout in much less time! Everyone can benefit from HIIT cardio, whether it be the person who is trying to lose weight or the professional football player training for the upcoming NFL season! Give HIIT a try and I am sure that you will not go back to the traditional way of performing cardio again!
