to lose weight and have general fitness improvement. This program can work for anyone, so feel
free to adjust weight and resistance to fit your needs. Weeks 1-4 are designed for exercise
familiarization, general lean muscle development, and initial fat loss. Weeks 5-8 will focus on strength gain and
sustained metabolism increase, including diet suggestions. Enjoy!
Day 17: Friday October 21st 2011
Warm Up: 20 minutes
Recumbent
Resistance Intervals
-
5
minutes at ‘5’ to ‘7’ resistance 75 RPM to 80 RPM
-
8
times: 30 seconds at ‘10’ to ‘12’ resistance 90+ RPM, followed by 1 minute at
‘5’ to ‘7’ resistance 75 RPM to 80 RPM
-
3
minutes at a leisurely pace
Light Stretch: less
than 5 minutes
No deep stretching. Just a few reaching exercises, arm swings and
circles, trunk rotations, etc. The idea
is to move and get warm, especially muscle groups you missed in your warm-up.
Resistance: 10 – 20 minutes
-
Single leg Step ups on low step (8” – 12”): 2 times- 10
step ups on each leg with striding arms, balance for 10 seconds on the 10th
step.

Comprehensive
light stretching, then focus on shoulders, arms, chest and back. Be sure to
include: infraspinatus stretch, teres minor stretch, bent over lat stretch, wall lat stretch, overhead triceps stretch, seated biceps stretch, doorway or floor deltoid stretch, side deltoid stretch, straight arm chest stretch, and doorway or floor modified chest
stretch.
Cool Down: 20 minutes
Run / Walk on
a treadmill. (5 run, 5 walk, 5 run, 5 walk would be great)
Try to eat a
fatty snack (good fats like nuts or avocados) with plenty of protein 30 – 60 minutes
before your workout. Something close to
18g carb, 14g protein, 10+ grams of fat.
Eat a leaner snack 30 – 60 minutes after you workout. 18g carb, 14g protein, 3g fat (or less) is
ideal, but a protein shake with more protein and less fat would be beneficial,
too. Comment below, tweet @geoffcraft,
