Free Workout Plan #4
This intermediate workout plan is a three day plan designed to increase your metabolism and burn fat. It is an interval training routine, split into two workouts, Upper Body and Lower Body. Perform the workouts every other day, alternating the workouts each time, with 2 days rest after the third workout of the week.
For example, if your first workout is Monday, then you should workout on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday would be rest days.
This is a circuit routine where you perform the exercises in sequence. You should do one set of every exercise in the list, then repeat the circuit for the second set.
There are 2 minute cardio intervals between exercises. Choose the cardio equipment of your choice (Treadmill, Stair Climber, Elliptical Trainer, etc.). At the end of each workout, you will have completed 20 minutes of cardio work.
You should rest only as much as needed to complete the circuit(target: rest only long enough to move from station to station and adjust weights). Perform each exercise with a 2-0-1 tempo (that is, 2 seconds down, no pause, 1 second up).
