The main goal here is to have only 30 seconds or less between each superset. That way your heart rate stays up and your muscles will build in a way that will benefit your body in high intensity training and build lean useful mass instead of bulky useless mass.


I am a rower so for me I need muscle stamina and endurance. Keeping my heart rate up high for my entire workout will help me to get used to increased time in high intensity situations. It's a 6 day workout split into three days. Cardio each day and abs after cardio before lifting.

I am still looking to cut weight so the high intensity will hopefully help me to burn the last bit of fat off of my body. I will be taking Kre-Alkalyn , hydrowhey and casein during this journey.
