This is a beginner routine designed to maximize caloric expenditure. Eight weeks is not a lot of time and we want to make use of each day. Cardio days can be as easy or as challenging as you make it.
I've selected the stairmaster to maximize fat burn, but feel free to substitute with whatever is most comfortable for you. Another great option if available ... a rowing machine.
This is a beginner cutting routine designed to help individuals increase their heart rate, workout intensity and metabolic rate to stimulate fat loss and getting lean.
There is a mix of bodyweight, dumbbell, weighted and core exercises used in this routine to work and build the muscles.
Each day of the routine will focus on a major body part, a mixture of various core exercises and cardio to help the burn calories and excess fat storage in the body
Diet
As to any cutting routine, diet is KEY. You need to eat clean and healthy, while focusing on adequate calorie intake just enough to stimulate fat loss that you're looking for. Eliminate processed foods while taking in healthy carbs and fats and of course enough protein to meet your daily needs.
Stay Strong Together,
