Easy to Use Workout Creating Template
Exercising on a regular and consistent basis is a progressive reality for many people and ideal for others. There is nothing more fulfilling than to see all of your hard work and energy pay off as you reach your goal(s). Unfortunately, there is the other side of coin – that seven letter word we try to avoid as much as another fat cell accumulating on our stomach – PLATEAU.
Consistent exercise and fitness training is key for our daily lives and physical appearance. But, as we continue this neverending journey, our body also adapts to our workload in a neverending manner. So, in order yo have your “cake and eat it too” it is vital that you constantly change your route in which you are traveling to get to your fitness destination. Confuse your body so it is always adapting to another routine or environment you place it through. Then, change it again. Keep changing it every month, week or day and watch the success unfold before your eyes!
I have recieved many testimonials from clients who tell me my boot camps and personal training sessions stand out from the rest because everyday they do something fresh and different. I pride myself on this fact. In fact, I am able to easily give free routines and material away on my sites or in person because I developed and follow a simple strategy to overcome plateaus and stagnant workouts. I am going to show you how to create your own workouts in the gym or home by following this easy template. Don’t get me wrong, ten years of hands-on experience and intensive studies and certifications in exercise and physiology has made it available for me to work on a professional level as a fitness coach in which this template cannot take for granted. But, for those wanting to “spaz” their fitness workouts a bit, this can be helpful without having to listen to a know-it-all trainer like myself or spend tons of cash on videos and services that may leave you dependent on them.
So here’s the template that other trainers will hate me for revealing:
The body has several motions in which it can only can perform on a daily basis. Sometime it does a movement in isolation – but most of the time one movement is connected, or chained with another in order for you to move or get work done sch as picking up a laundry basket. These main motions are:
- Push
- Pull
- Squat
- 1-Leg Balance
- Abdominal Stabilization
Lateral, bending and transverse movement occurs as well but lets stick with these five to stay on course for the sake of the article.
Examples of these patterns are when you are pushing open a door or pulling it to close it shut. Another example is getting out of bed which requires you to use your stomach as you get up, squat and one-leg squat as you begin to stand. These functional patterns can be put into a circuit training routine to help you lose fat and build muscle tone.
Now take these five movements and create an exercise for each one in a circuit training session Like the one below:
1. Push – Pushup
2. Pull – Pullup/Row
3. Squat – Squat
4. 1-Leg - Lunge
5. Abdominal Stabilization – Situps/Plank
Do 15 – 25 reps of the five exercises you created before resting 45 – 90 seconds. Repeat the circuit for 3 to five sets for an easy but effective fat shredding workout.
