3 Ways to Burn Fat Ridiculously Fast

Cardio is a waste of time. If you want to burn some real fat fast incorporate some of these methods into your fat loss workout:
Complexes
First off I am going to start by telling you that complexes performed correctly tough; the kind of tough that leaves you rolling around the gym floor whimpering for your mother. On the flipside, I have never seen such amazing fat loss results from any other method. Complexes essentially are a combination of exercises done together without putting the bar down. You complete all the reps for exercise A then without putting the bar down all the reps for exercise B and so on. Generally you might group 5 or 6 exercises together. The weight on the bar will remain the same throughout. Here is an example

Deadlift 8 reps
Bent over row 8 reps
Front squat 8 reps
Push press 8 reps
Back squat 8 reps
Alternating lunges 16 reps

Fall on the ground in a whole world of pain.

Tabata
My client likes to call this 4 minutes of hell. The Tabata protocol is a high intensity workout that can produce remarkable results in minimal time. The protocol consists of 20 seconds at a maximum effort followed by 10 seconds of rest which is repeated for a total of 8 rounds (4 minutes in total). Dr Izumi Tabata invented this ground breaking protocol. He and a team of researchers from Tokyo’s National Institute of Fitness and Sport tested athletes on this simple program and found that after 6 weeks of training, his athletes gained a massive 28% increase in anaerobic capacity along with 14% increase in there VO2 max. You can perform a Tabata with many different exercises but some of my favourites include the rower, bike or even bodyweight squats. It’s really up to you what exercises you pick but I would highly suggest the big bang for your buck exercises.

EDT
Another really simple but highly effective fat loss method is the EDT or Escalated Density Training. Generally you will have two workout periods we can call A and B. Each workout period will last between 10 and 15 minutes. Select two exercises, I would suggest non competing exercises so you may choose a lower body exercise such as Squats and an upper body exercise such as Pull ups. Then you need to select a weight that is around your 10 rep max. So if you can do 20 pull ups add a weighted vest or a weighted belt. Your goal is to complete as many repetitions in the time frame alternating from one exercise to another (so for workout period A, you do exercise A1 for x reps, then go to exercise for A2 for x reps, taking minimal breaks between sets and going back and forth till time is up). I recommend starting with around 5-6 reps with each set and as you tire this will drop to 3 and maybe even down to 2, it doesn’t really matter. What matters is that you set a personal best of the total amount of repetitions you performed each time you workout.

An example program would look like this

Workout Period A -10 minutes
A1 Back squatr
A2 Pull ups

Workout Period B – 10 minutes
B1 Deadlift
B2 Dips

Pick one of these three methods for your next exercise session and start saying bye to that stubborn fat.
