--------------------------------------WHY THIS ROUTINE WORKS-------------------------------------

Statistics prove that the ideal reps for cutting is between 8 and 10 reps. Any more than that the weight is too light, and you are just creating an endurance for that weight. (Excluding calves and forearms). Moderate weight that you can only rep 8-10 times if you can do 2 reps more then what is asked then you need heavier weight.
In this routine you will be cutting the fat and toning your muscles without over training or causing your muscles to fail. Doing this will maximize calories burned and fat loss.

PLEASE DO NOT EXCEED THE WORKOUTS IN THIS ROUTINE.

Rest is essential in all workouts, however in cutting you get only 60-90 seconds of rest making this routine fast and full of calorie burning methods. One thing I cannot stress enough is proper form. Use proper form in every workout. Proper form may cause you to be able to lift less weight, but you will see greater results.

Resting in this routine will be 1-1.5min after each set.

-------------------------------------------ROUTINE EXPLAINED------------------------------------------

You will do a warm-up set of the same amount of reps asked each set (8-10) and not record it. A warmup set should be significantly less weight than the set you will use for the workout. Wait about 30 seconds then do your first set of moderate weight for reps required no more, no less.

The weight should not be changing every set. You should have a weight that you can only do the amount of reps required. If you feel like you can do 2 more than required, go heavier until you find a weight that you can only for that amount required. Stay at that weight for the rest of the sets, unless you cannot complete the set. This will help you understand how much weight you will need in the future.

EXAMPLE: If you bench with 40lbs dumbbells for 8 reps but you feel like you could get 10 so you go up to 50lbs so now you’re on set 2/3 you do it and get all 8 it feels good. You move to set 3/3 and you can only get 6 with good form. Drop back down to 45lbs finish that set. So next time you know that you will start with 45lbs.

---------------------------------------------------IMPORTANCE OF STRETCHING-------------------------------------------------

Dynamic stretching or also known as warmups should be executed directly before exercising. They are to be either the exact same workout or a similar range of motion to the workout you are about to do. This should be substantially less weight and less explosion than the workout. Benefits to dynamic stretching include less chance to sustain an injury, greater performance, reduce soreness and more.

All dynamic stretching will be done before each workout.

Static stretching should be done after a workout or before the end of your day. Benefits of static stretching include improved recovery time, reduced soreness, reduced lower back pain, increased muscle strength, increased muscle tone, less chance for an injury and more.

All static stretching will be held for 30 seconds. This should be done during a cool down time after your workout or later that night, but before bed.

----------------------------------------------------CARDIO-----------------------------------------------------

The cardio of this entire routine will be done as High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) you give it 100% for 30sec-60sec no slowing down. Then slow down for 60sec-120sec until your heart rate slows/ breathing calms. Repeat this for the full 30min. By the end of this 5 weeks try to get to 60sec at 100% then only 60sec slow down. Then repeat for full 30min. You will be surprised by your results in fat loss.

PLEASE DO NOT OVEREXERT YOUR SELF. IF YOU FEEL DIZZY, LIGHTHEADED, PAIN OR OTHER ABNORMAL DISCOMFORTS. STOP IMMEDIATELY GET WATER SIT DOWN AND LET SOMEONE KNOW ABOUT YOUR ISSUE.

However, you may feel some slight lightheadedness as you are doing intense cardiovascular workouts. Do not push yourself too much, just do the best you can do. If you must stop to prevent discomforts that is recommended. But once you feel better, continue on.

To find your fat percentage I recommend buying a digital caliper. But if you want to find out now you can get pretty close by searching Body Mass Index (BMI) Calculator and enter the required information.

FEMALES

You will be working out with weights, yes, I know it seems like you will get big and bulky. But trust me with this routine you will not. You will simply get that sleek sexy body many girls want.

With fat one-pound equals 454 grams (decimal places aside, this is a fact).
Fat has nine calories per gram.
Human fat tissue is approximately 87% lipid. So therefore, fat tissue has approximately the calorific energy of 395 grams of pure fat (454 grams x 87%), that is 3,555 calories (395 grams x 9).

1-pound of fat = 3555 calories
Fat: 1 gram = 9 calories
Protein: 1 gram = 4 calories
Carbohydrates: 1 gram = 4 calories
Alcohol: 1 gram = 7 calories

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
Is how much your body will burn just based on your metabolism.
You can do this by searching BMR calculator and inputting your information.

EXAMPLE:

Male, weight 155 height 5'10 age 23, 1764 calories
Female, weight 155lbs height 5'10 age 23, 1550 calories

DAILY INTAKE AVERAGE MALE

Protein 0.80 grams: Per body weight pounds
Carbs 1.8 grams: Per body weight pounds
Fat 0.4 grams: Per body weight pounds.

EXAMPLE WITH A 155LBS MALE

Protein 124 grams x 4 calories = 496 calories
Carbs 279 grams x 4 calories = 1116 calories
Fat 62 grams x 9 calories = 558 calories

Male= 2170 calories/day

DAILY INTAKE AVERAGE FEMALE

Protein 0.75 grams: Per body weight pounds
Carbs 1.5 grams: Per body weight pounds
Fat 0.3 grams: Per body weight pounds.

EXAMPLE WITH A 155LBS FEMALE
Protein 116.25 grams x 4 calories = 465 calories
Carbs 232.5 grams x 4 calories = 930 calories
Fat 46.5 grams x 9 calories = 418 calories

Female= 1813 calories/day

DAILY INTAKE OBESE MALE

Protein 0.75 grams: Per body weight pounds
Carbs 1.5 grams: Per body weight pounds
Fat 0.25 grams: Per body weight pounds.

EXAMPLE WITH A 155LBS MALE

Protein 116.25 grams x 4 calories = 465 calories
Carbs 232.5 grams x 4 calories = 930 calories
Fat 38.75 grams x 9 calories = 348.75 calories

Male = 1743 calories/day

DAILY INTAKE OBESE FEMALE

Protein 0.70grm: Per body weight pounds
Carbs 1.2grm: Per body weight pounds
Fat 0.2grm: Per body weight pounds.

Protein 108.5 grams x 4 calories = 434 calories
Carbs 186 grams x 4 calories = 744 calories
Fat 31 grams x 9 calories = 279 calories

Female = 1457 calories/day

During the cutting cycle you will lose 0.75lbs of muscle for every 3lbs of fat if you follow the proper diet.

----------------------------------------------------NOTES------------------------------------------------------

If you do not have an indoor pool (during winter) or you are a poor swimmer you can switch the swimming with the indoor bicycle. Swimming is the best for fat loss so if you can swim then I recommend not skipping out on it.

You can add in a warm-up set before each workout to prepare your muscles for the sets. I recommend performing 1 warm-up set before each type of exercise.

Drink plenty of water but not too much while performing this routine. Drinking water helps keep up your metabolism and hydrate your body/muscles. This routine can be repeated until you reach the desired body weight or size, it is recommended to take a week of rest after completing the 10 weeks.

To maintain your beautiful physique, do my endurance routine "Stronger Healthier Endurance" it will keep you in great shape and you can eat normally again.

If you are interested in building muscle, you can do my "Bigger Stronger Healthier" routine.
