Jump start your metabolism with REAL WORLD conditioning
I bet Conan didn't run on the treadmill or eat a bunch of crap!
How do I get rid of this?
How do I burn off these?
If I do this for 90 minutes a day, 7 days per week will I be ripped?
Do those fat burning pills really work?
I get asked these questions all the time from friends, family, and clients. Believe it or not I know when these questions are coming. I think I’m psychic! It usually begins with “…hey Jamie, let me ask you a question.” Undoubtedly what comes next is one of the questions above or a myriad of other questions pertaining to burning fat or “getting ripped.”
They usually don’t like the answer I give them. “That sounds hard.” “I can’t do that.” “I just love ____ too much.”
Well, you know what I say to that? Man up! If it’s REALLY important to you, you’ll find away.
Stop eating crap. Quit stuffing your face with grains and other empty foods that give you nothing nutritionally. Focus on eating lean meats, fruits, veggies, nuts, and seeds. Seems pretty simple right? I think so too.
Stop doing cardio and start doing conditioning. Quit pedaling that bike to nowhere. Try a little of this at the end of your workout. I promise, together with sound nutrition and lifting heavy, a few hard conditioning sessions a week will jump start your metabolism and help you burn more fat.
Get Strong(er) Wk 1 – Day 1
Time to get strong(er) folks!
Last week was a much needed deload week. I attacked this training session with focus and passion. Hell, is there really any other way?
With some business stuff coming into focus and looking better and better I was pumped to train.
This training cycle I’m going back to a 4-day split with 2 upper days and 2 lower days. It’s a split I’ve had some success with in the past but this time the focus will be strictly on pushing and pulling heavy sh*t! These sessions will be short and sweet but highly intense and effective!
It’s also time to ramp up the nutrition. I’ve given up the grains and I’m going paleo/primal. Nothing but leans meats, fruits, and tons of veggies and good fats. I still thrown in the occasional legume and sweet potato but that’s about it!
Below is what Day 1 looked liked:
1 – Clean/Press 5×5,5,5,3,3
2a – Flat DB Press 3×8
2b – BB Bent Over Row 3×8
3a – Chins 3xsubmax
3b – Pushups 3xsubmax
Conditioning – max rounds in 20 minutes:
1 – Sandbag Thruster – 5
2 – Burpees – 10
3 – Thick Rope Slams – 20
4 – Box Jump -10
5 – Sledge Swings 10 L/R
I was toast after this one, especially after being out in the heat.
I’m focused MAN!
Nothing can stop me.
