Quickly read through our step-by-step directions to ensure you're doing each workout correctly the first time, every time. Note: A five day split will still fit into a two-week time frame if the fifth day is a rest day. That way the last workout of the third rotation will fall on day fourteen, or exactly two weeks from day one. If your goals are strength and size , then your nutritional program is pretty easy: eat! Don't skip your post-workout meals, add calories whenever you can, and fit in an extra protein shake on your training days.
Ideally, you should increase your protein intake to 1. A macronutrient ratio of 60 percent carbs, 25 percent protein, and 15 percent fat works very well for most people for strength and muscle gains. If your goal is weight loss , then you'll want to be careful not to create too large of a calorie deficit that will send your body into a starvation state. The workouts will create a calorie deficit by themselves if you simply maintain your current food intake. For most people, this is exactly what I would recommend!
For people who want to truly maximize fat loss, creating a slightly larger caloric deficit will help, but you'll be risking hard-earned muscle by doing it. No matter what your training goals, make sure that your main supplement bases are covered. You should be taking a daily multivitamin plus at least grams of vitamin C daily, an antioxidant formula, a zinc and magnesium combo, a good whey protein, and flax seed or fish oils for the essential fatty acids you'll need for recovery.
Unless you have these basic nutrients covered, then all the "specialty" supplements in the world will not help you maximize your gains.
Two-a-days are certainly not for the casual fitness enthusiast, but if you challenge yourself and see at least one full cycle through, you'll bust through plateaus and see amazing gains in a really short time!
ISSA was the first organization to recognize the need for specialized levels of education in the fitness field. View all articles by this author. Extend your arms, bend at the hips to close the angle between your torso and your legs, and then bend your knees to slide back to the starting position. Warmup 2: Take 10 minutes to practice and warm up with pullups, barbell bench press, barbell overhead press, and barbell bent-over row.
Do light reps of each to prepare yourself for the workout. Do the exercises as a circuit, completing one set for each in sequence. Choose a weight that makes it moderately difficult to complete the first 10 reps, and stick with it throughout you may have to change weights for each barbell exercise.
Rest as long as you need between circuits to complete the next round with good form try starting at 2 minutes. Lie on the bench and arch your back, pulling your shoulder blades down and together.
Grasp the bar just wider than shoulder width, and pull it out of the rack. Take a deep breath, tighten your glutes, and lower the bar to your sternum, tucking your elbows to your sides at 45 degrees on the descent. When the bar touches your body, push your feet into the floor and press the bar up at the same time. Hang from a bar with your hands shoulder-width apart and your palms facing away. Pull your ribs down and keep your core tight. Draw your shoulder blades back and together and pull yourself up until your chin is over the bar.
Place a barbell in a power rack and grasp it with hands shoulder-width apart. Take the bar out of the rack and stand with feet shoulder-width apart.
Rotate your elbows forward so that your forearms are vertical, and the bar is just below your chin. Press the bar overhead, pushing your head through as the bar passes it. Shrug your shoulders at the top, and then lower the bar back down under control. Place a barbell on a rack set to hip level. Grasp the bar with your hands at shoulder width, and pull the bar out of the rack. Take a deep breath, and bend your hips back—keep your head, spine, and pelvis aligned.
Bend until your torso is nearly parallel to the floor. Draw your shoulder blades together as you pull the bar up to your belly button. Finish the workout with pushup plank holds. Hold the position for 30 seconds, and then rest 60 seconds.
Repeat for 6 total sets. As you gain core strength, work up to 10 sets. Get into a pushup position with hands shoulder-width apart and legs extended behind you.
Hold the position, keeping your body straight from your shoulders to your heels. Use a rowing machine and row as hard as you can for 30 seconds. Rest 30 seconds. Do 6 total rounds, and then rest 4 minutes. Row meters in 2 minutes, and then rest 1 minute. Do 10 total rounds, trying to take 1 or 2 seconds off your time each round.
Warmup 2: Take 10 minutes to practice and warm up with the barbell deadlift, barbell bench press, pushup, pullup, and barbell back squat. We recommend no more than pounds. Rest as needed between rounds of the circuit, but aim to finish the workout in 20 minutes. Stand with feet hip-width apart and tilt your tailbone back. Bend your hips back to reach down and grasp the bar with hands just outside your knees. Keeping a long spine with your head in line with your hips, take a deep breath into your belly, brace your abs, and drive through your heels.
Place your hands on the floor, shoulder-width apart, and extend your legs behind you. Press yourself back up. Set up in a squat rack and grasp the bar with your hands as far apart as is comfortable.
Step under the bar and squeeze your shoulder blades together and down, wedging yourself under the bar so that it rests on your traps or the back of your shoulders. Nudge the bar out of the rack and step back, setting your feet at shoulder width with your toes turned slightly outward. Take a deep breath into your belly and bend your hips back, then bend your knees and lower your body down. Push your knees out as you descend. Go as low as you can while keeping your head, spine, and pelvis aligned, and then extend your hips and knees to return to standing.
Grab two kettlebells or dumbbells men should use kilogram kettlebells or pound dumbbells; women should use 12kg or 24 pounds —and do 20 reps of each of the following exercises in circuit fashion. Rest 1 minute, and then do 15 reps, then 10, then 5. As you improve week to week, increase the number of reps you do. Build up to where you can complete sets of 50, 40, 30, and so on down to 10 reps. Hold a weight in each hand and place your foot on a box or bench. It should be high enough so that your thigh is about parallel to the floor when the foot is resting on it.
Step up onto the bench without letting your rear leg rest on it—let it dangle behind you. Step back down with the trailing leg. Do 10 reps on each leg 20 total. Raise your feet to your hands. Do pushups, breaking them into however many sets you need to in order to complete all the reps. For example, if you can do 20 reps when going all out, do sets of only 10 to This will ensure you keep enough in the tank to reach the total without burning out. Row as hard as you possibly can until you finish meters.
Now rest as long as it took you to complete the meter row. Repeat the process for meters, and so on down to meters. Set a timer for 30 minutes. Do as many reps of each of the three exercises as you can in circuit fashion, resting as needed, until the timer goes off.
Instead, cycle through small sets of each. If this feels like a lot, take longer rest breaks between exercises. Suspend yourself over parallel dip bars with hands just outside shoulder width. Lean slightly forward, and lower your body until your upper arms are parallel to the floor. Lie on your back on the floor with feet flat on the floor and knees bent. Slowly lift your shoulder blades off the ground, curling your torso upward while you slide your hands forward on the floor.
Perform steady-state cardio for 30—90 minutes. This is meant to be hard but not crushing.
