Rest Between Sets

Limit rest between sets to 60-90 seconds.

Exercise Form

Make sure to perform only quality reps. If your technique starts to break down, end the set to avoid potential injury.

Resistance

Use the same weight for each set of a given exercise. When you can perform the listed reps for each of the sets, progress in weight.

Cardio

The combination of resistance training and cardio is an excellent choice for overall health, and to assist the body in building quality, lean muscle.

Optional cardio can either be 15 minutes of HIIT or 20 minutes of LISS. HIIT is high intensity interval training, and LISS is low intensity steady state.

“Steady state” cardio includes moving at a constant, challenging speed on the treadmill, Stairmaster, elliptical, etc. “HIIT” cardio involves alternating between periods of intense exercise, and a more reasonable, sustainable pace. Sprinting is a good example of high intensity, while walking at a brisk pace would be considered a more sustainable, lower intensity pace.

Nutrition

To build a fit physique, you’ll need to fuel your workouts with quality nutrition. A simple and fast way to calculate your daily caloric intake requirements to build muscle is to determine your TDEE, or total daily energy expenditure.

Click here to calculate your TDEE.

To maximize body composition, it is best to lose 1.5 to 2 pounds of weight per week. If you are losing weight more rapidly than this, add 200-300 calories to your daily intake level. If you are not losing little to no weight each week, remove 200-300 calories from your daily intake level.

Special Notes

Make sure your nutrition is filled with whole foods boasting quality fats, complete proteins and carbohydrates.
