Form of HIIT training
For HIIT would you prefer to do (based on the idea that you would choose the most beneficial and effective from) cardio based (example: treadmill sprints, hill sprints, jump rope, burpees) or to do weightlifting based (example: kettlebell swings, low rep+high weight squat/bench/deadlift/etc. with sub 20sec rest times)
I would like cadio to be cardio, as the other might be too much on the CNS in combination with regular weight training
1) Creatine can help increase strength
2) It will not cause water around your core
3) ALWAYS use creatine, never come off. Use http://www.tigerfitness.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1001184
Dna Fitness test
What is your opinion on the dna fitness tests that use saliva as a test sample. They claim to measure things such as fiber type, food sensitivities, chance of injury etc. Is there a particular company that you would recommend if you can even recommend at all? Thanks.
It is very hard to do this due to lack of progressive overload. If acustomed to lifting weights, there is really no bodyweight routine that will suffice BUT look into HIIT cardio to help stave off muscle loss by activating weight training responses for a short term
Realistic Goals for 36 years old
Hi Marc, I just turned 36 years old. I want to get serious about gains and success with fitness Having my son who just turned 4 really lit a fire under me to turn it up a notch and go from recreational gym user to serious fitness person. Do I have to temper my expectations and accept that I won't be as successful because of my age?
A beginner is a beginner! Start a realistic program and temper your goals. Some blueprints are:
