5 Ways to Cut Your Workout Time

By John Foxtruff

Do you know the 2 main reasons men and women stop working out/exercising?

1) They have no time 2) They lose motivation to workout

Here are a few things covering up some ways you can get your work outs finished faster. Most of all, no one should spend more than 60 minutes in the gym. Here are the 5 ways you could cut time from your workouts.

a) Do Supersets

Use supersets that are "non-competing". What this means is select two exercises for different muscle groups, preferably completely opposite movements. Heres an example, use a push and a pull. This way, the other muscle group rests while the other works out. Doing this also cuts the rest time you need between your sets.

b) Choose a better warm up strategy for yourself

Don't waste 10 minutes of walking on the treadmill. Instead of doing that use your time doing a total body circuit of body weight exercises as a regular warm up for yourself, finish that then move directly into a specific warm up set for your first two exercises.

c) Pair dumbbell and bodyweight exercises together in your supersets

This will save you time at home (you wont need to change the weights on the dumbbells between exercises) and in the gym (you don't need to fight for 2 sets of dumbbells).

d) Choose Interval Training over slow boring cardio

Research has proven that more weight is dropped when people use interval training in their workouts instead of long cardio, also that interval training will take only half as long to do.

e) Limit yourself using isolation exercises

Pick multi muscle exercises, such as squats, pulls, pushes, and rows. If you have time, you can squeeze in some drop sets for arms and shoulders if you want. However, if you only have 3 sessions of 45 minutes per week, isolation exercises must be the first to go. Work out less, live life more.

In addition, don't spend more than 10 minutes per week on direct ab training. It's not efficient and won't give you rock hard abs alone. - 17274
