Look Great Naked author Brad Schoenfeld has trained some of the hottest bodies in Hollywood and has been featured in countless fitness and beauty magazines. Here he reveals some top fitness myths and killer workout tips if you want to look great naked and don't have much time to workout.
The Top 2 Ab Fitness Myths: that most women believe are 1. you have to do ab work to get flat abs and 2. you should train abs daily for better results. According to Brad, "the only way to get a flat stomach is to strip away the fat around the midsection. This is accomplished by having a proper nutritional regimen, increasing muscle mass to increase metabolism, and performing cardiovascular exercise to help burn calories". Brad's Look Great Naked Tip: "Only train your abs a maximum two or three times per week."
The Top Cardio Myth: that women need to ignore is that low intensity cardio burns more fat. According to Brad "High-intensity exercise burns more fat calories on an absolute basis than lower intensity activities. Since the most important aspect of training intensity is the total amount of fat calories burned-not the percentage from fat, higher intensity exercise has the decided edge. Brad's Look Great Naked Tip: "Why spend an hour running on the treadmill when you can get better results from training for half that time? If fat burning is your aim, performing cardiovascular exercise at a high level of intensity is your best choice."
The Brad Schoenfeld 10 Minute Workout: Pick 2 exercises for each major muscle group then group them into a circuit. Perform 12-15 reps of each exercise using moderately heavy weight and going from one to the next without resting. After your first giant circuit rest about 30 seconds then repeat two more times. Do this 3 times a week. Get Even Faster Results with The Look Great Naked Diet: Change Your Set Point, Change Your Life (Avery Health Guides)
