How to Get Better Workout Results

There comes a point when your workouts just don’t give you the same “boost” that they used to…

When that time comes you have 2 options:

1. You can either completely switch up your program and begin varying your exercises, weights, reps, rest time, or varying other factors.

2. You can take the exercises you were previously doing (that have now gotten easy) to the next level.

We’re going to focus on the 2nd option today, since it’s easier to implement and anyone can do it regardless of their training expertise.

It’s important to keep one key point in mind as you progress along with your exercise programs. And that is, you must continually change your program (every 4-6 weeks) in order to stimulate further body transformation change.

Remember, your body adapts quickly and what once worked for you will begin to have less and less effect as the weeks pass. Just think about how you initially get sore from a brand new workout and then that same feeling subsides over the weeks…

Now, I’m not advocating you exercise to the point of feeling sore or achy, but this point does reinforce the idea that changing an exercise or the rep range will force your muscles to adapt in new ways.

Here are 3 examples of how to advance your exercise programs:

1. Stand Up!

If you’re doing seated exercises, stand up and do them! For the most part, I NEVER recommend anyone to sit down while exercising (I’ll write more on this later).

Obviously, if you’re doing some ab crunches you aren’t going to do them standing up, but if you’re doing an exercise like a seated dumbbell shoulder press try doing it standing up.

2. Shorten Your Workouts

I highly recommend decreasing your rest periods by using supersets or tri-sets and limiting your workout time to no more than 30-45 minutes. This is what we do with my online training and at my private training studio in Boston, and the results have been amazing.

By limiting your total workout time you are forced to stay focused and decrease rest periods between sets in order to get everything done. Also, when you complete more work in less time you are boosting your metabolism to an even greater degree, which will allow you to burn more body fat after your workout is over.

3. Advanced Intervals

Eventually, even your fat burning intervals like mountain climbers, burpees (squat thrusts), high knees, butt kicks, and kettlebell swings become less difficult, and as a consequence less effective. When that happens it’s time to break out the “big guns” and up the intensity for your 20-60 second intervals.

Well, it just so happens I shot a new video for you demonstrating how to take an ordinary Burpee and fuse it with a kettlebell swing for a more advanced fat burning interval!

I hope you enjoyed the article today and be sure to consistently adapt your workout programs to meet your improved fitness level and to keep your fat burning results coming!
