Interval Fitness Training
The Best Mix and Match System Ever
by Andrew Cheyne
Interval fitness training is by far the best workout you can do for your body. It combines strength and cardio into one intense action packed workout. But one thing you may not think about is the ability to mix and match through interval fitness training.
Just think about it, interval fitness training is nothing more then a bunch of exercises thrown together in 30 second to 1-minute stretches. After a couple exercises are complete you simply let your body catch up and repeat the session.
For that reason you can actually mix and match a bunch of exercises together. Think about it, make a list of exercises that you like, now make a list of exercises that are challenging to you. This works best if you have at least 10 in each list.
Now simply pick two from each list a and two from list b and combine them into a great interval. You can even do this in random order by picking a random number and counting down that many each time. Doing this keep it fresh and exciting everytime you workout. The possibilities are endless, they really are. You can combine exercises like dips and chinups, with exercises like bodyweight squats and floor mountain climbers. Even add things like plank exercises and wind sprints.
Just from this list you can have a number of great interval fitness training routines up.
For example:
- Chinups x 15
- Bodyweight Squats x 15
- Plank x hold for 30 seconds
- Sprint in place x 30 seconds
- Rest and Repeat
The real key here is you can add anything that you would like to be working on. For instance if you want to add bench press and leg press to the mix you could do something like:
- Bench Press x 10
- Leg Press x 10
- Floor Mountain Climbers x 30 seconds
- Dips x 15
- Rest and Repeat
I hope you can see my point here. Not only is interval fitness training the most effective form of cardio but you also add strength training into the mix and voila the best just got better.
If you are looking for a way of exercising that really mixes it up and keeps you interested while burning more calories than you ever would on any kind of treadmill try interval fitness training. In fact try the two-column method that I had described above. Get rid of your boring cardio routine once and for all.
