7-Day Guide: Circuit Fat Loss Workout of the Week

Circuit Fat loss Workout

I'm excited for this upcoming training workout phase. While it is not for fat loss, with Jason Ferrugia's help I've put together a new training approach, and I'm trying out a new training facility - it's tough to find a good gym in this city.

Hopefully you are excited about your training this week as well...whether you are just starting TT for Fat Loss or the new monthly TT, I want you to join me and take a positive attitude into your workouts.

Here's your 7-day guide to improving your body...

Monday
Have a great TT workout today, incorporating the Exercise of the Week: The Romanian Deadlift. This exercise puts turbulence on the glutes and hamstrings, helping those large muscle groups burn more calories, get stronger, and look better. Check it out here.

Tuesday
30 minutes (at least) of enjoyable recreational activity. Doing something you like will help reduce stress and inflammation in your body. Get outside and enjoy yourself. Avoid chaining yourself to a machine in the gym.

Wednesday
Take on another TT workout. Don't stress if you only give yourself 20 minutes for a workout. Simply do 1 set of each exercise rather than 3 sets, and you'll still get the majority of the benefits. No need to skip workouts...but you can shorten them.

Thursday
After your 30 minutes of activity, review your fluid intake. Say yes to bottled water and Green Tea. Say no to juices, sodas, and alcoholic beverages. Say yes to milk and protein shakes when needed.

Friday
A TT workout to end the week. Finish with bodyweight circuits instead of traditional interval training. Pick 2 upper and 2 lower body bodyweight exercises and perform them in alternate fashion. Here's another example:

a) Step-ups (do all reps on one side first)
b) Inverted Row (use the beginner position if needed)
c) Waiter's Bow (basically, this is a bodyweight Good Morning)
d) Close-grip Pushup (hands shoulder-width apart)

Do 12 reps per exercise. Go through the circuit 3 times. Rest 30 seconds at the end of each circuit.

Saturday
This should be your favorite workout of the week...30 minutes (at least) of recreational activity with your social support group. Get moving. Have fun. Live life!

Sunday
Plan, shop, and prepare.

Here's a shopping list article from Men's Health

Plan, prepare, succeed.
