4-minute addiction proven BETTER than 30 min of cardio (STUDY)
Published: Thu, 04/25/13
There's a new 4 minute addiction that's sweeping the nation that's
proven to be BETTER than 30 minutes of normal, boring cardio.
Canadian researchers at Queen's University tested a workout using
workout "finishers" style of training against long cardio.
(Reference: Appl Physiol Nutr Metab. 2012 Sep 20.)
- 22 college-aged women did 4 workouts per week for 4 weeks
in one of three groups.
Group A: did 30 minutes of treadmill running at 85% max heart rate
Group B: did 8 rounds of 20 seconds of a single exercise (burpees,
jumping jacks, mountain climbers, or squat thrusts) with 10 seconds
of rest between rounds.
Group C: did nothing (they were the non-training control group).
Results: Both training groups increased their aerobic fitness levels
by the SAME amount (about 7-8%).
That's right, the short workout finishers (of ONLY 4 minutes)
worked just as well as 30 minutes of cardio!
Shocking? Yes, but that's not all.
ONLY Group B, the workout finishers style training, also increased
muscular endurance in common exercises like chest presses, leg
extensions, sit-ups, and push-ups.
And finally, this intense but brief training method used by Group B
also resulted in greater overall workout enjoyment.
Make sure you read that last sentence one more time so it sinks in
please...
Enjoyment is obviously a key to consistency when it comes to exercise
otherwise you'll never follow through.
The Canadian Scientists concluded that "extremely low volume body-
weight interval-style training" will boost cardiovascular fitness just as
well as cardio while giving you BETTER improvements in muscle
endurance.
All in only 4 minutes.
So, what was the EXACT protocol that helped these people get
shocking results in just 4 minutes?
It's called Metabolic Stacking from my good friend Mikey Whitfield
who's lost 105 POUNDS using this brand new scientific approach.
It's all part of Mike's brand new Workout Finishers 2.0 System...
And best of all, you don't have to change what you're currently doing!
Just plug in Mikey's "Finishers" with your favorite workouts to double
your results and create a 38 to 48 "after-burn"...
... without any cardio including intervals!
==> 4-minute addiction proven to be BETTER than 30 minutes of cardio
MORE PROOF:
Mike has entered 6 of his private clients into Craig Ballantyne's Turbulence
Training Transformation Contest and ALL 6 clients won or placed, even
with thousands of people voting.
And they did it with ZERO cardio.
Their secret weapon was Mikey's "finishers".
So don't be surprised when you find yourself with NEW definition in muscles
you haven't seen before after trying these bad boys.
That's what finishers will do. Especially when you bring your body
a unique stimulus like this.
Here's the bottom line. I wouldn't recommend this program if I didn't believe
in what Mike creates and does.
Just go look at Mike's own before/after photos on his new page
and you'll instantly see why he's so passionate about getting you
in shape.
