Burst Training- The ideal form of exercise to help you
How to Perform Burst Training. Complex/Compound movements only- No Isolation work The exercises chosen should require you to move multiple joints and use multiple muscle groups simultaneously. Examples include push-ups, bench press (barbell or dumbell), pull-downs, chin-ups, squats, leg press, lunges, sprints, hill climbing, stair climbing, etc. My favorite Burst Training machine is the Xiser (click for more info). Isolation movements should be avoided. These involve single muscles. Examples include bicep curls, tricep extensions, lateral raises, leg extensions, abductors, adductors and leg curls. These exercises are too inefficient for Burst Training. Maintain continuous smooth motion throughout the movement. Keep constant tension on your muscles while performing Burst Training. Never lock your elbows or knees and never stop to take rest during a set. The Burst Training set should be performed as rapidly as possible while always maintaining complete control. As with all types of exercise, do not lose your form or you will get injured. Performed correctly, Burst Training is very safe. Complete failure due to lactic acid burn should be attained within 60 seconds or less. You should perform each set of Burst Training as if you are sprinting a 200meter dash. You should be very exhausted and your muscles should burn intensely at the end of each set. If you fail after 10 repetitions or 10 seconds, then the intensity/weight was too high. If you do not fail due to fatigue and/or muscle burn in 60 seconds or less then the intensity/weight was too low. Adjust the intensity/weight accordingly for future sets until you achieve failure within the ideal range of 20-60 seconds. Rest 2-5 minutes between sets to completely catch your breath. This is important. Each set of Burst Training must be very efficient in order to be effective so you must allow you body plenty of time to recover between sets. Your heart rate and breathing should be close to resting pace and your muscles should no longer burn before you begin your next set. Total workout should be 30 minutes or less. No exceptions- 30 minutes or less from the time you start exercising until you are completely finished! Many people will get great long term results performing Burst Training 15- 20 minutes per day but anything longer than 30 minutes could be detrimental to your long term fitness and health. No zone cardio/ aerobic training. Example of zone cardio include stationary bike, treadmill, power walking, stair-master, etc., performed slowly for 30 -45 minutes. These should be completely avoided. Really, NO CARDIO! Perform Burst Training 4-7 days per week. For more information on how to perform burst Training, click on the Xiser banner.
