Diet: He changed his eating to several small meals a day, made sure he was getting protein in each one as well as some vegetables at each meal. He follows the high-intensity protocol and does not eat carbs for 2 hours after an interval workout. This boosts his Human Growth Hormone which will aid fat loss and recovery. He drinks 10 glasses of water a day and eats a lot of lean meat, eggs, nuts, seeds, vegetables, fruit, some starches, and healthy oils. He's trying to get to about 2400 cals a day.
He's trying to lose a total of 90 pounds and is down 20 in the first month (a very UNsustainable pace but good for him because he's got his eating under control)
He is training on THIS tempo:
Monday: Interval bodyweight
Tuesday: Interval Cardio
Wednesday: Interval bodyweight
Thursday: Interval Cardio
Friday: Interval bodyweight
Saturday: Interval Cardio
Sunday: rest
or you can use this weekly tempo
Monday: Interval bodyweight
Tuesday: Interval Cardio
Wednesday: rest
Thursday: Interval bodyweight
Friday: Interval Cardio
Saturday: rest
Sunday: rest
Interval Bodyweight:
Use 60 seconds to attempt as many reps as you can at an exercise (listed below)
Rest for 60 seconds and move to a different movement.
Repeat 10 times for a total of approx 20 minutes (depending on your ability and time available). Half of that time you will be resting.
Take your pick from these exercises:
Pushups/knee pushups
Squats
Arm Haulers (google it)
Situps/crunches
Lunges
Plank
Bridges (google it)
You should pick 2, 3 or 4 exercise to do each workout and rotate through them as a circuit. Try different exercises each time you do it, or at least change the order you are doing them.
Pack as many reps into a 60 second window before you move on to another exercise (rest as you go along if you need to). It’s okay to rest during that 60 seconds but keep your volume as high as you can. Then, during your 60 second rest period – record how many you did of the exercise.
Example
Minute 1: pushups for 60 seconds, record total reps
Minute 2: rest
Minute 3: situps for 60 seconds, record total reps
Minute 4: rest
Minute 5: squats for 60 seconds, record total reps
Minute 6: rest
Minute 7: pushups for 60 seconds, record total reps
…
Minute 17: squats for 60 seconds, record total reps
Minute 18: rest
Workout complete
Interval Cardio:
For 60 seconds run/sprint as fast as you can
For 60 seconds rest
Repeat 5-10 times
If you are ever to sore to do any Interval Cardio, just walk/run for a 20-30 minutes “Steady state” or “easy pace”. This will keep your tendons and ligaments stimulated and burn fat.
