Easy 10 minute body weight warm up circuit before a lower body session. Great for slowly increasing the heart rate, circulation and getting the muscles ready for resistance training. This circuit consists of squat and knee, burpees, mountain climbers and press ups. For each round we added another 2 reps. Ryan Fearn: Personal trainer canterbury

Fitness boxing circuit! This workout improves the body's ability to break down fat during and after exercise and helps build lean muscle. This type of total body work is very challenging but the mood boosting effects are well worth it! This circuit is split into x6-12 rounds of 3 minutes. Each round divided into 3 exercises lasting 60 seconds each. Ryan Fearn: Personal trainer canterbury There are quite a few factors that affect a person’s ability to lose body fat. It is important to regularly reflect and monitor lifestyle areas such as nutrition, stress, sleep and exercise. We often forget how complicated life is and it is easy to quickly become demotivated when our routine has been messed up. The worst thing to do in this situation is start dwelling on it or feeling down about it. Try and channel these thoughts into a drive for something more positive so that you can start making progress again. You will soon be ahead again, even if you were forced to take a couple of steps back. Timea's most recent progress picture shows much better muscle definition after quite a strict couple of weeks!

It is so important to keep surprising the body with new challenges, regularly changing the program so that progress does not plateau. I find that the best programs include a combination of high intensity interval training, weightlifting and sprints. Adele's fitness has improved dramatically since using boxing and resistance circuits, she deserves the results of her hard work and commitment. Ryan Fearn: Personal trainer canterbury Complete the following
20 squats 100m sprint 10 lunges 10 press ups 10 lunges 10 rows 100m sprint Rest Repeat for 20 to 40 minutes. Ryan Fearn: Personal trainer canterbury I love this workout. One rep consists of a Deadlift, Clean, Front squat and Push press. Four sets of five reps will definitely get the heart rate up and is a great total body workout!
Tabata is a very effective form of interval training that can be used to promote fat loss. The best exercises to use are more high intensity, such as boxing or skipping. It is really fun as there are so many exercises that can be used, so it keeps it quite varied and you can use it when training with a partner too. Also it doesn't go on for too long!
In this method of training the intervals consist of 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest. This is repeated 8 or more times in one block. I usually give clients 4 or 5 blocks of tabata in one session. In the block shown above, Annabelle and Sunni are alternating between body shots on the heavy bag and V-sits. |
