I have two problems with it.
#1 Deadlifts are the only exercise done for lower body with weights.
#2 "challenge to your daily routine" ya do that everyday and get ready to overtrain.
Other than that, it wouldn't be a bad idea to do maybe once-twice a week tops. Remember diet and cardio/conditioning will never be replaced 100%. Not bad to use for something to break the boring mess of cutting up.
You really wanna lean up? Lift heavy and run ****ing hills.
I would read this article if you are interested in doing something similar http://www.tmuscle.com/free_online_a...with_complexes |
I figured I'd do bar clean/press rather than use kettlebells, as I don't have any and don't really want to go buy some. I'll check out the article. As far as cardio, once I'm done with my physical therapy for my knee, I'll be going back to spin 2-3 times/week.
Diet is pretty good as long as I stay away from sweets and don't drink too much. Getting married in July and want to drop about 20lbs by then, so I'll be going to an only wine and white liquors policy - which works anyway since I like scotch and vodka. Normal food day for me:
banana before workout
protein shake and oatmeal (milk, blueberries, walnuts or almonds) after
wheat toast with peanut butter mid-morning
fairly substantial lunch - ordered out at work - usually a sandwich and fruit/veggie
apple and cheese as afternoon snack
dinner usually chicken or pork or turkey, salad and another veggie or two, no carbs
