Super Hero Workout Review I’m not quite what you would call a “buff” kind of dude, but thanks to the recent influx of superhero movies everywhere I’ve started to think about my physique. Now, I’ve forever been physically fit since college (don’t ask me about secondary school, please,) but never muscular. Even if I did rowing and lacrosse I never developed more when compared to a level of biceps. Then two months ago I became watching a Marvel movie and thought, “Why the heck can’t I appear to be that?” I went online to determine what sort of guides I can find.I discovered John Romaniello’s Superhero Workout. I explain to you, this guy features a really inspiring story, and the man seems to be aware what he’s referring to

I hate saying this and it’s probably a little controversial, but when I see signs around my town here in GA about “Tabata Bootcamps” because the word “tabata” is cool, I shake my head.I’ll cut to the chase…There is NO ONE alive that can do a true Tabata for 30 minutes unless you’re a Tabata Jedi like these freaks:“Revealed the truth about Tabatas is” – YodaFirst, a tabata is NOT just 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest. Don’t underestimate the power of this 20-10 approach, it’s just not TRUE tabata.An example of using the 20-10 method is this:Bodyweight Squats (20 secs), rest 10 secs – 6 roundsBodyweight Squats work a lot of muscle and will get your heart pumping, but sorry… it’s not enough to be called “Tabata”.But it’s enough to burn calories in a short amount of time, so don’t dismiss it. And by the way, it’s a very simple finisher, too. (If it’s your first time, just do 4 rounds).Now about Tabatas…TRUE Tabatas are 170% of your VO2 Max).Most people cannot sustain this for a full 20 seconds, let alone a full 30 minutes.If you truly want to use the powerful Tabata method, then you will need to choose an activity that forces you to 170% of your VO2 Max like sprinting.That’s why if you do want to use Tabata training, it needs to be your VERY LAST part of your session

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is gaining popularity as the most effective way to lose weight, build strength, and stamina. HIIT workouts are structured by high-intensity, maximum effort “work” sets alternated with low-intensity, low-effort “rest” sets. There is a lot of room for creativity when structuring a HIIT workout, but here are three popular, basic HIIT workout formats that you can follow for your next HIIT workout.Three Basic Forms of HIIT Workouts:1) Turbulence Training:8 reps of weight training alternated with 1-2 minute high intensity cardio, for 45 minutes maximum.Example Turbulence Training workouts:Sets of 8 back squats x 2 minutes jump rope Sets of 8 deadlifts x 1 minute burpees Sets of 8 bench presses x 1:30 minutes sprints 2) Tabata Method:Each “set” is 30 seconds long, and consists of 20 seconds work alternated with 10 seconds rest. Repeat sets eight times for a total of four minutes

No, I’m not having a momentary spelling blip, that is definitely Hiit with two ‘I’s. Hiit actually stands for High Intensity Interval Training, and if you’ve seen Kick Ass you’ll certainly be feeling as hard-core as Chloe Moretz’s character of the same name after 30 minutes of this!The studio, exclusively for women, is a vision in pink. Pink walls, pink exercise balls, pink mats – it’s a girly girl’s dream. But it doesn’t exactly scream intensity.

I woke up feeling slightly flat and just did not feel like hitting the full bodyweight workout. I decided instead to make it a Tabata day! That turned out to be the right choice. After the stretching regimen, I had a good, challenging, solid, BUT short workout! I did, however, substitute the rope jumping for the Tabata cardio, which I have to get back to
