The Truth on Kick Ass Cardio

Here is a kick ass cardio burning workout for anyone who needs to either lose a little weight or a lot of weight. I guarantee if you stick with this at least 4 times a week you WILL DROP at least 2-4 lbs a week. The key to all diets is that you need to eat right in conjunction with your diet. HERE WE GO.

Part 1- Start with the treadmill on a 1 or 2 incline and a running speed of 3.3-4.0 and get the your heart rate up and pumping full steam. Run at this speed for 5 minutes then lower the speed down to a walking rate of 2.2 to 2.5 and do this for 5 minutes. No stopping for a break in between just do it. Repeat step 1 again but higher the incline to about 4-6 and start running at the speed of 3.3-4.0 (or whatever works to get your heart rate up). Do this for 5 minutes and then bounce it down to the walking speed but leave the height right were it is. Finish up and then get off and take a breather.

Part 2- Go over to the row machine and lets use a little upper body strength with an aerobic kick to it. Sit down on the rower and the principle is pretty much the same as the treadmill. Crank up the resistance and row for about 5 minutes straight. When the 5 minutes is up lower the resistance to a comfortable pulling weight and push out another hard 5minutes worth of rowing! This is painful but it will work. Take a breather and repeat the whole process over again. 2 SETS of this rotation and then get off of the machine and move to the next.

Part 3- Find the bike rotation in the gym, if you go to Planet Fatness be careful not to sweat on the seat because they'll kick you out. Guess its against the rules...don't sweat at the gym...go figure. Sounds silly to me but what do I know, I'm just dumb bodybuilder. Anyway, sit down get comfortable on the bike and start pedaling away at a nice resistance (not too hard but not too easy) for 5 minutes. Like before with the other 2 parts after you have done the first 5 minutes adjust the resistance and continue for another 5 minutes. Your legs should be on fire and you should be sweating all over the place. Repeat this for one more cycle and then fall off the bike and pat yourself on the back for completing this painful procedure. Do this a couple times a week for a good month and you will see results.

Part 4- Run over to the smoothie bar and order one of those so called low fat muffins filled with sugar and carbs!!! No I'm only teasing...don't do that. Just get some water and go home.
