High Intensity Workouts For Muscle Building & Weight Loss
By Kevin Richardson, Founder of The Naturally Intense System of Diet & Exercise™
“Countless studies have shown that the most commonly cited reason for not exercising is a “lack of time.” This finding is ubiquitous; regardless of age, ethnicity, sex, or health status, people report that a lack of time is the primary reason for their failure to exercise on a regular basis. Given that lack of time is such a common barrier to exercise participation, exercise prescription innovations that yield benefits with minimal time commitments represent a potentially valuable approach to increasing population activity levels and population health. [High Intensity Workouts] …is often dismissed outright as unsafe, impractical, or intolerable for many individuals.
However, there is growing appreciation of the potential for intense, interval-based training to stimulate improvements in health and fitness in a range of populations, including persons with coronary artery disease. In addition, some data suggest that a low-frequency, high intensity approach to training is associated with greater long-term adherence as compared with a high-frequency, low-intensity approach.”

For almost two decades our high intensity workouts (Naturally Intense™High Intensity 10 Minute Workouts™) have been the foundation of the Naturally Intense System of Diet & Exercise™ and have helped hundreds lose weight and build impressively lean, functional and sculpted physiques. With clients ranging from competitive bodybuilders, actors, and fitness models to Special Forces military personnel, martial artists, tri-athletes and everyday people interested in losing weight and improving their health, our Naturally Intense high intensity workouts have proven themselves time and time again as an efficient and effective method of training. Using myself as an example, high intensity workouts lasting anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes three times a week are what gave me the physique and the ability that I have today as an accomplished drug free bodybuilder and martial artist.
Our countless success stories and high client retention rates hints that something must be working! Fortunately more scientific studies are providing credible evidence that our Naturally Intense High Intensity 10 Minute Workouts™ not only work, but are far superior to conventional training programs in terms of building strength, muscle mass, losing body fat and building endurance. As a father of five, I know all too well the need for maximum fitness in minimum time, and I am certain that you will see the value in it as well.
