Did you catch my article in The Anchor last week about the Hamster Wheel? Did I leave you wondering what you should be doing for cardio? If spending more and more time working harder and harder isn’t right, what is?What if I told you that you could cut your cardio time in half and get the same or even better results? Quick and easy answer is interval training! Specifically high intensity interval training also known as HIIT.

A little over 7 weeks has gone by since my dreadful DXA scan.If you remember, it was the scan that ended my brilliantly thought-out  7 week experiment of “what would happened if I stopped training and stopped fasting?”.Nothing good happened in that experiment – I lost 7 pounds of muscle and gained 5 pounds of fat.But now, I’m back in form.And I’m going to take this opportunity to really explore the importance of knowing your body. Specifically, I want to talk about the importance of knowing your measurements.Most people know their weight… some even guess at their body fat, but it’s still the minority of people who actually track their measurements…. which isn’t a good thing.Case in point – It’s been about 7 weeks of fasting and training, and my weight hasn’t changed…at all.  It has fluctuated between 174-176 for the last 7 weeks. Which would drive me absolutely crazy, except I know my measurements.

Resistance band training routine using drop sets is another way to do what back in the day was called super sets.  Resistance Band Training Routine Drop Set Exercise RecommendationsadaThe way I prefer to do this Resistance band training routine is to use a small  or medium single band package with the following exercises.Attachment FreePush PressFront SquatHigh PullTricep PressSplit SquatHammer CurlI will go 20 seconds with a 5 second time to drop a band and repeat this for 3 sets doing the same exercise before moving to the next resistance band exercise.  Specifically each giant set of this resistance band training routine will last 75 seconds.   Take 30 seconds to transition into a different exercise.  Once I complete the entire circuit I will repeat this drop set workout 3 to 5 times depending on how much time I have to train. asdIf you are a little crazy and want to repeat the sequence with the same band, go for it, but it’s a crushing resistance band training routine if you stay with the same level of resistance from start to finish on your second and third set.  Usually when I do this I take a minute between giant sets do to my age and need for greater recovery daaadsadsadaGetting BETTER with BANDS Daveadad  adasasas
