High Intensity Training- Naturally Intense HIT 10 Minute Workouts

High Intensity Training- Naturally Intense HIT 10 Minute Workouts

  • A 10 Minute High Intensity Workout lasts only 1/6 of a lunch hour! It’s the average time it takes to check and reply to your emails! The time it takes to walk 10 New York City blocks! With such short time commitment anyone can do it!

  • “Countless studies have shown that the most commonly cited reason for not exercising is a “lack of time.”… However, there is a growing appreciate of the potential for intense, interval-based training to stimulate improvements in health and fitness in a range of populations”

  • “Data suggest that a low frequency, high intensity approach to training is associated with a greater long-term-adherence as compared with a high frequency, low intensity approach.”- Martin Gibala, PhD, chairman of the Department of Kinesiology, McMaster University, Ontario, Canada.

HOW OUR 10 MINUTE HIGH INTENSITY WORKOUTS WORK…

Our bodies are naturally lazy. That may sound like a bad thing, but when you think about the amount of energy our ancestors had to burn stalking, spearing, and dragging home an antelope – or running from a hungry lion – it makes sense that our bodies evolved to conserve energy. In other words, we’re naturally inclined to take the path of least resistance. We choose to walk rather than run. We choose to sit rather than stand. When a hiker goes missing in the mountains, rescuers simply need to focus on the areas where the walking is easiest, and they will almost always find them!

OVERCOMING THE CHALLENGE

The challenge – and the advantage – of the Naturally Intense 10-Minute Workout is that it requires you to override your instincts and choose the path of greatest, not least, resistance. The whole point of this method is to get the maximum return on your investment of time and effort – the biggest bang for your buck!

That’s how you burn the most body fat, build the most muscle and get stronger and the key to accomplishing that goal is to choose exercises that are so demanding that you’d rather not do them and to perform those exercises in ways that make you want to stop as soon as possible.

If that sounds counterintuitive, it is.

However, the people who get the best results from their training are the ones who choose the most taxing exercises.

THE BIG QUESTION

How does the average man or woman increase their training intensity high enough each time to get the most out of a workout?

Answer: By training at high intensity for SHORT periods of time and if the workout only lasts 10 minutes, anyone can do it!

WITH HIGH INTENSITY TRAINING EVERYONE CAN GET WORLD CLASS RESULTS

For most people, the thought of doing set after set of exercise in the gym for an hour or more 5 to 6 times a week makes their toes curl.

But with Naturally Intense High intensity Training, you spend only a few minutes doing any one exercise- as that’s all you will need! The focus is on compound movements that work several muscles at once and we implement a variety of high-intensity training principles to get the most out of each exercise, but in a way that ensures that you never get injured!

Yes, it’s hard, but the point of high-intensity training is that as hard as it may be, it’s doable, and nearly anyone, regardless of fitness level, can do it – and do it well.

Think of this form of training as a side door to the kinds of results an elite athlete might achieve by training for hours each week.

WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Besides its short duration, the fact that it’s only 3 times a week (you’ll need the rest) – and the long-term promise of a stronger, healthier and better looking you – there’s another powerful motivator that will get you through your Naturally Intense 10-Minute Workout:

You see results fast.

In as little as 2 weeks you’ll see the changes in your body. You might not expect it but there are few things more exhilarating than really pushing yourself physically.

Most of our clients are exceptionally busy men and women who all said they could not have achieved their fitness goals with a conventional program that required a significant time commitment given their hectic schedules.

And that the intense but tolerably short nature of the workouts being the reason they stuck with it longer than any other program they tried.

QUICK FACTS

  • Short High Intensity Training Workouts make you burn more subcutaneous & abdominal fat than ANY other types of exercise, while increasing your strength and building lean muscle mass!
  • Short High Intensity Training Workouts increase your overall fitness AS MUCH IF NOT MORE than longer conventional workouts![5,7,8,10,11]
  • Due to the shorter time commitment, Short High Intensity Training Workouts are associated with GREATER ADHERENCE [4], and the results stay with you longer![13,14]
  • High Intensity Training has been proven SAFE & EFFECTIVE for a range of populations regardless of age, gender or fitness level! [12]

You Don`t Need Protein Right After A Workout To Build Muscle!

Over the course of almost 36 years of training, I have seldom ever had protein within a half an hour of training.

I don`t consume protein shakes, and for the four years that I did when I was having them immediately after training, my notes revealed absolutely no increases in strength or muscle size compared to when I was not using them.

It`s a myth that goes a long way in selling protein shakes and protein bars, but the reality is that you can make gains as long as you are getting the protein you need. (Which, by the way, isn`t an exorbitant amount!)

Thanks for watching and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

Next Time Someone Says You Are On Steroids Watch This!

It`s a sad state of affairs as a lot of natural athletes have to deal with constant accusations of drug use, when they are in fact lifetime natural and what they have achieved isn`t necessarily unattainable by most people who just put in the work and time.

People change all the time, and there are so many examples of it around us, but somehow when it comes to fitness, there`s a sense that we are destined to remain the same unless there is some degree of chemical enhancement.

That`s a dangerous mindset as it makes it more likely for people to consider using steroids and other potentially harmful drugs, and more importantly, it hinders us from believing in ourselves and our own innate potential.

We are capable of far more than we realize, and if you make some progress and someone asks if you are using drugs, watch this video and I hope it can give you some perspective.

Stay the path, know that I believe in you and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

Lever Arm Bench Presses 325lbs for 9 Hard Reps!

This was my last set and I debated whether I should go up in weight or not, but I went for it!

These are pause presses.

Full stop at the bottom of the movement which means you need to generate more force to get the weight up each rep, thus increasing the overall intensity significantly.

I fought hard but by rep number 8, gravity and pure muscle fatigue were starting to get the best of me but I pushed with all I could for one final partial rep!

For the gear heads, it`s @betitanfit Lever Arms on a @roguefitness Monster Lite Rack with a @powertec bench.

Still training and I hope you are too!!!

Sweating More Doesn`t Mean Burning More Fat!

This is one myth that doesn`t want to die- sweating more does not mean you burn more fat as sweating has absolutely nothing to do with fat metabolism!

You don`t lose more fat by sweating more and next time you are in the tropics take a hard look around, as if that was the case everyone would have six packs!

Thanks as always for taking the time to look at my work and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

High Intensity Chest Training: 80lb Dumbbell Flyes with Holds!

This was my last of three sets, starting with 60lbs, then 70lbs and ending here with the 80lb dumbbells.

The isometric hold and stretch at the beginning ups the intensity from the very beginning and each rep after feels like your chest is on fire!

I fought for 9 reps on this one and give this routine a try next time you train chest and let me know how it goes!

Thanks for watching and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense
