Day 2 of 365: Interval Training for Cardio
Well I decided to try a variety of tough as hell workout programs, suggested by my friends. The first one up is known as “Insanity,” by Shaun T. An awesome guy and program. So my objective is to sprinkle a few of his moves in with my current training.
The thing I liked about his program, is that it shocks your body into growth by stimulating the fast twitch muscle fibers of your largest muscles…the legs. Yes you will see MR. Burns sitting in your living room if you put 110% into this clip.
The good thing about interval training, besides stimulating muscle growth, is that it helps you shed fat so fast! My only caution is to avoid over eating throughout the day and to really time your meals the correct way around your workout. Use the tips from my latest ebook(money back guaranteed if you don’t like it).
The majority of these moves were taken from the warm-up!! Yes this program is that tough. I would suggest doing your tough workout when you have the most energy in the day. Then later in the evening do light cardio combined with a well deserved stretch session.
Making the best,
Ahmad
Update: I have returned to drinking my protein shakes and increasing my water intake. I will try to get an extra hour of sleep a day. ~ahmad
Man I have to tell you the workout is “Insane” but a very good one. I have wanted to workout for so long I am tired of being so skinny and having zero muscle. Your workout plans are the best. When I do your workouts I actualy feel like I have dont something at the end of the day. Thanks for the great advice.
Hey man thanks for that post. I really hope you can keep giving me quality feedback like that. It really helps me to make better clips. Let me know your thoughts.~ahmad
Hey ahmad,
Been working out for three weeks now and have been searching through youtube to find honest people that want to help others get into shape and lose weight and i found you. im 5′10 225 i have been doing 30 min of hiit 5 days a week just started doing it on an empty stomach. I do 15 minutes on the bike and then 15 on the eliptical keeping my heart rate 160-173. Im going to try some of your other stuff on here and im open to any advice to keep my progress improving. Thank you
what distances are you covering on both machines within the 15 mins? To burn the fat and keep your body improving…shoot for a faster time covering the same distance…ok?~ahmad
@Makingthebest
thats a good idea ill post in the morning and find out the distance i get on both of them and let you know. Thank you!
Hey ahmad! i must say that your workout videos are truly the best i’ve seen out there. You explain the principles behind the diets and workouts that you do, So it really helps me understand what i’m doing!
I’m a sixteen year old boy. Relatively built, But would like more tone to my muscles
Also! Do you have advice on deltoid separation? Because, For some reason, i cant seem to get that separated look out of my arms!
any ideas on a full workout too?
I was just surfing the net looking for a good morning work out routine and stumbled onto this website. I cant believe how impressed i already am! I’m going start off with day 1 tomorrow when i wake up and show my sisters as well!
HI Ahmad, Just found your workout videos on you tube. I am wanting to lose fat off my belly,and love handles. And then build up muscle all over. Which of your workkouts would be best. I am 6 feet 2, and 210lbs. Thanks for any advice , Cheers Bri
Bri,
You need to focus 45 minutes of your hour towards my cardio clips..the week 1-12 cardio clips. Try the day 1-30 clips or the beginnner navy seals ab clip for your FIRST 15 MINUTES of your workout hour…then move on to 45 mins of cardio with a mixture of the week 1-12 clips…ok?~ahmad
So I’m sitting on the edge of my chair waiting to hear how it all went!! Did you have a great time? Make sure to keep it fun with your sisters…use the first round to get all the laughing out, then really get serious and put some energy into the cardio moves…it always works…~ahmad
hey man thanks for the comment! At your age your body will be going through some great changes. So it’s important to learn the foundation and basics about improving your wellness. Getting healthy has so many fun elements to experiment and play around with to see what works for you. I need to know what you are doing now for your shoulders…and I need to know what protein you have at each meal you normally eat. We need to adjust a few things…and the redirect your energy down that path…start enjoying this trip you are beginning …it gets better!~ahmad
thanks the workout is good its helping me very well
Hi Ahmad,
I found your workout videos on youtube 3 weeks ago and i’ve been doing the cardios only. I lost fat pretty much everywhere except now a problem pops….the love handles….and I have a little bit of back fat not much though. I have belly fat too and was wondering what can you suggest me? I’m 5″4 and 140 lbs.
(sorry if I made any mistakes i’m working on my english)
Thank you for your help and time
Gina
