The Great Aerobic Hoax- Part 2

In part one, we learned the benefits of why we want Lean Body Mass. One quick way to not only boost lean body mass but burn fat is through interval training or metabolic circuits. These are fast-paced weight-training routines in which you alternate between upper- and lower-body exercises and cardio. You might compare this type of activity to running repeated bouts of 30- to 60-second sprints. While sprinting has been shown to burn calories at a high rate, it can't be sustained for long because the muscles in your lower body become fatigued — and that's even if you're resting between sprints. "But with metabolic circuits, you're emphasizing different muscles in each exercise, so you can maintain a high-intensity effort for a much longer duration, and with almost no rest. The result: the muscle-saving, calorie-burning benefits of intense resistance training and sprints, combined with the nonstop movement of long, steady-state aerobic exercise. It could be the greatest fat-loss workout known to man.
Research like Volek and Scott are beginning to put the pieces together. Just as important, trainers are already using this kind of routine to help their real-world clients achieve faster results than ever. And not surprisingly, it works! A recent client was able in a 6 week period working out 3 times a week for 30 minutes, burn 5 pounds of fat and gain 5 pounds of lean body mass! A huge success and you can do it too!
