TRU METABOLIC TRAINING

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas and spent most of their time with family and friends. That is what Christmas is all about isn’t it? Beside’s all the wonderful gifts and good times, we all know the other part of Christmas that we ALLL love so much, FOOOOOD! Yea, i understand it is the holidays and this is only once a year but we have to remember not to take it too far. Having a cheat day is a bit more realistic than having a cheat week! This is where tons of people go wrong and decide to cheat for an entire week. Your taste buds might like it but your body sure wont.

A great tip to success on any holiday is to be prepared. This is the real world and we all know things aren’t always going to turn out the way we want it to. There are many road blocks along the way, you just need to be set when the time comes.
TRU METABOLIC TRAINING

TRUBODY Fitness uncovers the “TRU metabolic training”, with Owner Eric Daye and his trainee, Jodi Boam. The two of us together make a power house team, with passion and drive to push our bodies to the limit.

Today is the first of many segments at which we will be revealing the most INTENSE FAT BURNING workouts! These workouts will not only leave you pondering the question of, “Why do I do this to myself?” but with a metabolic surge that will leave your body in high rev mode for days to come.

Most of these workouts will not be for the faint hearted so i do ask you prepare yourself when you enter the gym. Workouts such as these must be given a 110% effort the whole workout to get the results we are all looking for. Going to the gym with a plan to absolutely steer your body into the greatest fat burning state is all that should be on your mind! Once you have entered the war zone, done leave till you have accomplished your mission. Leave NOTHING behind!

While Jodi and I start you off with a great Barbell complex I will touch more on developing the perfect workout. What it involves and what plans you need to start making for the next time you step foot into the gym.

Stay Tuned for the next addition of TRU METABOLIC TRAINING. Until then, have fun with this workout and post your times!

The BIG 8

For the Big 8, you basically repeat the eight exercises in a row as fast as humanly possible. Couple Rules.

1. You must make sure you are using a FULL RANGE OF MOTION. That means no quarter squats, deadlifts or presses.

2. Do not attempt any movements you are not sure how to do. First, i would seek help from a professional (not a newbie trainer that sits people on machines every workout) or practice with a very light weight to begin with. When done properly this complex is VERY EFFECTIVE. Only once each exercise is understood and controlled will you be able to achieve the FULL benefit.

3. We use a 45lb bar with a 5 on each side. You are not looking for how much weight you can throw on the bar but see how fast you can move it.

We did 6 sets of this complex. If you are just starting out on Barbell complex’s it might be a good idea to start with 3-4 and make your way up. The first set was a warm up with the bar. The next set we placed both the 5lb plates on and started the workout.

Jodi’s time: 66 seconds
Eric’s time: 48 seconds
