- Fatigue the all major muscle 2 - 3 times a week. This means that you pushed the muscle to the point just before failure. That is considered a set. A workout should contain 4 sets of two exercises per muscle group.
- Use super-sets, tri-sets or circuits to maximize the work you get accomplished in the least amount of time. Super-sets is when you work opposing muscle groups. Tri-sets is 3 exercise using different muscle group (Legs, Bi's and Tri's). A typical circuit goes through all muscle groups going from largest to smallest.
- Find your Basel Metabolic Rate and subtract 500 from this number. Times this number by 7 to get your weekly calorie limit. From here you want to eat a different amount of calories each day but maintain a total under that weekly total.
- Find time to rest, relax and de-stress. Try to let small things go. Try going for a walk outside. Meditation helps a lot of people. Do your best to clear your mind of negative or worrisome thoughts.
- All cardio should be done in intervals. These means going as hard as you can for a short time and then easy. Repeat this pattern.
- Workouts should not last longer 60. This includes at least 5 min. warm up, 5 minute cool down and 5 minutes of stretching.
- Take at least 1 day off a week, and one week off after 8 weeks.
- With the exception of your planned week off, never take more than two days off in a row.
