ELITE
TRAINING
PLAN REDUX
Time is tight and the floor’s
packed. But by re-jigging your
routine to access equipment
faster, you max out muscle
growth and metabolism, says
Lee Matthews of Fitness FirstSUNDAY
METABOLIC CONDITIONING
Sunday is the quietest
day in all gyms, so you’ll
have equipment and space
aplenty. Swing that kettlebell, grit
your teeth through those walking
lunges and clear the floor for a
round or three of broad jumps.MONDAY
ACTIVE RECOVERY
Going back to work is
tough enough without
lifting heavy things. Steady-
state recovery – call it 40 minutes
on the treadmill – will help your
head decompress while burning up
to 2700kJ on your lunchbreak.TUESDAY
UPPER-BODY BLAST
Yes, the gym is busy. No,
that’s not a cop out. When
the dumbbells are taken, use
the neglected TRX set-up for a
pro-level upper-body overhaul.
Finish with a few push-up variations
and you’ll be swole without weights.THE PLACE YOU GO TO TRAIN HAS CHANGED. ONCE A ROOM FULL OF STIFF TOWELS AND CLUNKY MACHINES,
IT’S NOW AN ELITE FITNESS FACILITY OFFERING METABOLIC CONDITIONING, SUPERIOR MOBILITY AND
SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS. BUT IT’S ALSO A BUSY HOME TO A LOT OF HOT AIR.LEARN HOW TO CUT THROUGH
