Do you want to know the 2 main reasons most men and women stop working out/exercising?
1) Lack of time 2) Lack of motivation
Here are a few things covering up some ways you can get your work outs finished faster. Most of all, no one should spend more than 60 minutes in the gym. Here are the 5 ways you could cut time from your workouts.
a) Supersets
I like to use “non-competing” superset. This means, choose two exercises for different muscle groups – and preferably completely opposite movements. For example, choose a push and a pull. That way, one muscle group rests while the other works and you cut the rest time you need between sets.
b) Choose an efficient warm up strategy for yourself
Don’t be wasting 10 minutes walking on the dreaded treadmill. Instead use your time doing a total body circuit of body weight exercises as a general warm up for yourself, after that move directly into a specific warm up sets for your first two exercises.
c) Pair dumbbell and bodyweight exercises together in your supersets
This saves you time at home (you don’t need to change the dumbbell weight between exercises) and in the gym (you don’t need to fight for 2 sets of dumbbells).
d) Choose to do Interval Training over slow boring cardio
Research has proven that more weight is dropped when people use interval training in their workouts instead of long cardio, also that interval training will take only half as long to do.
e) Limit yourself using isolation exercises
Use a multi-muscle exercise, such as rows, pulls, pushes, and squats. If theirs time, you can put a couple drop sets for your shoulders and your arms if you want. If you got 3 workouts of 45 minutes per week, the use of isolation exercises must be dropped.
In addition, don’t spend more than 10 minutes per week on direct ab training. It’s not efficient and won’t give you rock hard abs alone.
