So you’re in a rut. For some reason, you need to shape up and look sharp with two weeks. What to you do?!
This two weeks targeted fat loss programme was designed to help you maximize the fat loss and firm up your body! How does this work?
Strength training helps you increase your metabolism and builds muscles, plus it strengthens your core. Both muscles and a good core are important for your total skeletal structure. Cardio on the other hand, helps you burn calories. When combined, you achieve fat loss and firmness!
For the programme, keep in mind the number of reps and duration:
Strength training (ST): 10 reps X 60 seconds
Cardio drills (CD): 60 seconds
Target to do just two sets, but increase your intensity and weight.
Programme
Exercise 1 (ST): Dumbbell thrusters
Exercise 2 (CD): Burpees
Exercise 3 (ST): Pushup
Exercise 4 (ST): TRX row
Exercise 5 (CD): Bike sprints
Exercise 6 (ST): Deadlifts
Exercise 7 (CD): Medicine ball slams
Exercise 8 (ST): Pulldowns
Exercise 9 (ST): Planks
The programme should take just 30 minutes. Do this everyday, for two week.
Naturally, to achieve your real, maximum fat loss potential, accompany the workout with the right diet. Since you will be increasing the intensity of muscle building, it needs to be supported with an increased intake of protein, which is vital for muscle growth. When consuming protein, ensure that it is “clean” protein which does not contain oil, or skin. Dishes such as chicken breast and sashimi are good alternatives for this diet.
On top of them, you would want to help your body burn fat more efficiently – do this by increasing your intake of vegetable, multivitamins, fat burners and fish oil (at least 6 capsules a day).
All in all, remember, this is a crash course, superhighway to fat loss. Do not do it for more than two weeks, you will crash and burn. If you insist, then we insist you get professional help from a Personal Trainer, and for this, talk to Khit, +65 3110 5888 / tzekhit@www.pt.com.sg
