Achieve the advantages of heavy lifting & intense aerobics in one total body workout utilizing lightish weights!.

All of our techniques are based on a premise of constant movement .. exercise to exercise..

Supersets: Back to back sets for the same muscle group or opposing muscle group.

• Same muscle. ( Technically a compound set )

• Exercising the same muscle with different movements will spread the 'exercise load' over the entire 'muscle group'.

  • Bench Press - Dumbbell Fly

• Barbell Curl & Concentration Curl / Dumb Bell Curl / Hammer Curl / Reverse Curl..

  • A curl bar is a wonderful thing..

  • Over head triceps extension - cable press downs

  .

Partial reps: 1/2 way down for 8 reps, 1/2 up for 8 reps then 8 full reps.

• I find most useful as a drop set / superset.

• After a bicep routine.

• Curl to mid level 8 reps, curl from mid level to top 8 reps, full movement curls 8 reps.

• A personal favorite partial:

  • 1/2 way up X 8, top to 1, 2 way X 8, full fly X 8.

  • Now super set with dumb bell bench press.

  • Then more partial flys.

  • Now, drop set partials ..

  • :-)

Aerobic Workout Rhythm / Interval Training

• During your aerobic training include short bursts of unsustainable exertion.

• Increase workload / exertion by increasing pace or adding resistance. 

  • A short 'sprint' type ( pick up the pace even slightly ) interval then return to the original pace.

    • Fast sprints can lead to injury!

  • Increase the resistance instead of speed, get the same result with less chance of injury.

    • Indoor equipment generally has elevation & resistance adjustments.

    • A upper body program with lower body aerobics greatly increases workload = interval..

  • Seek hills, stands, river banks to provide increased resistance.

    • On one of my favorite aerobic routes is "Nemesis Hill" ( my affectionate name for my personal nemesis hill', 6 minutes of steady incline, I sometimes do interval sets on "Nemesis Hill".

    • On other routes I know where banks / hills are available.  Even a short 20 second bank 'climb' can be done over & over & over.

    • On the beach, leave the packed sand near the water & move into the soft sand for an interval.

• A personal favorite is the use of dumbbells while on a stationary bike or treadmill.

• This synergistic exercise program systematically exercises all the major muscle groups of the body in a thorough aerobic & anaerobic / resistive fashion.  

• Aerobics utilizing the muscles of the upper body is equally as effective as aerobics for the muscles of the lower body for cardiovascular / endurance training.

• In activities of daily living upper body endurance and strength are every bit, or even more important, as lower body strength and endurance.

• Heavy Hands Revisited, by Clarence Bass, is an excellent article on total body aerobics.

• 2 ways to use weights during a stationary bike or treadmill workout.

  • Use hand weights while pumping / striding.

    • A fairly complete upper body workout can be done on a treadmill or stationary bike.

    • Curls, presses, tricep extensions, lateral raises, shrugs.. 

    • + all the variations of the list!

    • Excellent total body aerobics.

    • Use heavier weights for intervals.

  • Get off the equipment & pick up heavier dumbells.

    • In the middle of the treadmill / bike / climber aerobics, get off the equipment & do 1 set each of curl, military press, and tricep extension, a set of 30 -  50.  Use heavier dumbbells & do 30 - 50 reps of the exercises with the heavier weights twice during the treadmill / bike / climber aerobics.

  • The participants in this aerobic exercise and strength building program experience a complete cardiovascular work out, muscle toning, calorie burning, metabolic enhancement, posture improvements, body shaping and weight loss in one complete program.
