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 reps — high enough to keep your heart rate elevated
- Rest Periods: 30-60 seconds — short rest to maximize calorie burn
- Sets Per Exercise: 3-4 sets — optimized for fat loss
Glutes Training Tips
- *Hip thrusts allow the highest glute activation of any exercise — load them heavy.
- *Squeeze at the top of every rep for a full second to maximize the contraction.
- *Wider stances in squats and deadlifts shift more work to the glutes.
