Why This Workout Works

This workout is built around the principles of fat loss training. Maintain heavy compound lifts to preserve muscle mass while in a caloric deficit. Add supersets and circuits for accessory work to increase training density. Keep protein high (1g per pound of bodyweight) and prioritize sleep for recovery.

Training Parameters

  • Rep Range: 10-15 repshigh enough to keep your heart rate elevated
  • Rest Periods: 30-60 secondsshort rest to maximize calorie burn
  • Sets Per Exercise: 3-4 sets — optimized for fat loss

Biceps Training Tips

  • *Vary your grip width and angle — supinated, neutral, and pronated grips each emphasize different portions of the biceps and brachialis.
  • *Incline curls stretch the long head more than standing curls, producing a fuller peak.
  • *Keep elbows pinned to your sides — swinging reduces bicep activation.
