STEVE BOYLE JUNE 2016 MUSCLE & FITNESS^31

OUR ADVICE

This workout might give you a

good pump, but it’s not involving

enough muscle to make for great

cardio. Choose exercises that

train the whole body and keep

your heart rate up. Experiment

with special equipment if you

have it, but lay off the machines!
