Burn More Calories At Rest With Afterburn Workout

Burn More Calories At Rest With Afterburn Workout

Burning calories the right way is not as easy as it sounds. When I started my fitness journey I did all the wrong things because I was following random workouts from bodybuilding magazines.

In other words, I was just like the hundreds of people at the gym every week: the chick who’s there constantly on the treadmill, or the guy on the ground doing hundreds of crunches or the guy who continuously does barbell curls in the squat rack.

If you’re on the same path as I was, STOP! The most conventional workouts cause the body to burn the majority of the calories during the workout. Afterburn workout causes the body to work overtime by burning calories during the workout and after the workout.

When it comes to workout you already know that every minute count, so the quality is over the quantity. To ignite the afterburn effect, focus on compound exercises that require breath, intense personal strength, speed and power. So I’m talking about squats, presses, lunges, deadlifts and pull-ups.

Afterburn Workout

You should be lifting heavier weight, just forget about those pink dumbbells for 50 reps. The afterburn workout is not about that, and it’s not about the traditional 4 sets of 12 reps of boringness. This training method combine 5 unique training styles such as:

1. Ripped Circuits

They are designed to strip away the fat and reveal your ripped and lean muscle.

  • Barbell Front Squats x 12 reps x at least 3 sets.
  • Pull-Ups (Neutral Grip) x 12 reps x at least 3 sets.

2. Shred Burnsets

  • Barbell Push-Press x 12 reps x at least 3 sets.
  • Dumbbell Swing x 12 reps x at least 3 sets.

3. Metabolic Complexes

  • Barbell Squats x 12 reps x at least 3 sets.
  • Barbell Rows x 12 reps x at least 3 sets.
