Workout Description This workout mixes up three popular workout methods for total muscle confusion. There are two full body workouts to keep your metabolism high and an upper body workout to concentrate more on your ‘glamour’ muscles. The first workout is an antagonistic superset day (opposing muscle groups), the second workout is compound day using straight sets, the third workout is an upper body circuit. I use this workout to kick boredom into touch. I love all three methods and this is actually a very balanced overall workout. Link to this post!

Total Body Diagonal Training
Workout Description The total body diagonal training method is a real fat burner. The workouts help light your inner fat burning fire by targeting opposite diagonal muscle groups and finishing off with ‘shocker’ exercises and treadmill intervals. The workout is based on a principle of supersetting upper body push exercises with lower body pull exercises, then upper body pull with lower body push exercises. The shocker exercise has been thrown in at the end of your workout as a part of the body which hasn’t been directly targeted by the previous four exercises. This will flow the blood all around your body and help to shock your body into responding. This may sound a tad complicated but the workout is simple, you are working your entire body each workout while burning sat and stimulating your muscle groups in a way which perhaps they haven’t been stimulated before. Workout Notes Superset …
Body Mass Workout
Workout Description The total body mass workout does exactly what is says on the tin. Adding slabs of lean body mass isn’t really as complicated as many articles indicate. This type of workout takes dedication, steadily increasing the weight as you go. You start with your core section and move onto the mass compound bodybuilding exercises. Do this workout 3 times a week for 4 weeks, add some quality supplements like creatine and whey protein and you WILL see results. Workout Notes Perform all sets for each exercise before moving onto the next exercise. Studies have shown men and women who have trained their entire bodies 3 times per week packed on 4 times more muscle and lost twice as much fat as those who trained each body part only once per week. If that’s not motivation do try the total body mass routine I don’t know what is! …
Time For Turbulence Workout
Workout Description Time for turbulence shocks your body into using the magic combination of weights and cardio to get rid of your body fat, especially around your mid section. I’ve also used this routine as a tone and shaping routine with great success. Workout Notes Superset training, perform exercise A followed by B with no rest inbetween, that’s one set of each exercise. Alternate between workout 1 and workout 2. One week you will do workout 1 twice and workout 2 once. The next week you will do workout 2 twice and workout 1 once and so on. Perform workout 1 on Monday, workout 2 on Wednesday, back to workout 1 on Friday. The next week you should do workout 2 on Monday, workout 1 on Wednesday and workout 2 again on Friday. Of coure, you don’thave to stick to Mondays, Wenesdays and Fridays – you could opt for Sundays, …
The Ultimate Fat Burning Workout
Workout Description The ultimate fat burning workout is exactly what it claims to be. Looking at the exercises, ironically they are very similar to the ones I list in most of the mass building and muscle building routines. How you perfrom the exercises is very different, using high intensity circuits to ignite your fat burning metabolism and finishing off with high intensity cardio interval sprints. Working your whole body in one routine raises your metabolism and ensures you burn fat for many hours after your workout. This workout feels right and I have seen more fat loss results with this workout, than I have with any other workout routine. Workout Notes Monday and Friday Routines – do 10 reps of each exercise in a circuit (one exercise after another until all exercises have been completed – that’s one circuit) Do one to three circuits altogether depending on experience. Finish by …
Muscle And Strength Workout
Workout Description Muscle and strength is what bodybuilding is all about… well at least at the beginning. Research has shown men and women who trained their entire bodies 3 times a week gained more muscle and lost more fat than those who only worked each muscle group once a week (eg split training). This workout will build strong foundations and add lean muscle mass along the way. Workout Notes Pay attention to form and tempo of each exercise to maximise your gains and fire up your metabolism.Keep rest periods between sets down to around 45 seconds. Start off doing 12 reps, but increase the weight and decrease the reps each week.

Four Repping Workout Split
Workout Description Train four different exercises per muscle group, 3 sets of each (plus warmup). Your first exercise is done very heavy to build maximum strength. The next is performed slightly lighter to focus on muscle size, the third is done even lighter to target muscle endurance and the final exercise is done with very light weights to pump the muscle and encourage the release of mucle building hormones. Workout Notes Do all exercises with a weight that allows you only to do the prescribed amount of reps. Increase the weight each week if you can. Add cardio inbetween workout days for added shape and tone.

Diversity Fat Loss Workout
Workout Description The diversity fat loss workout is simple in principle. You choose 1 exercise per body part, perform one exercise after another in a circuit, performing a total of three circuits. This workout is great for preventing boredom and is extremely sustainable. Doing three workouts of this type per week will speed up your metabolism and is of course, diverse. Workout Notes Choose an exercise for each body part and perform each set for 8 reps. For example, you could do squats for legs, bench press for chest, bent over rows for back, military press for shoulders, lying french press for triceps, barbell curl for biceps and crunches for abs.
