Training Myths We MUST Dispel Myth: You Can Spot Reduce Fat Truth: Fat cannot be spot reduced, doing copious amounts of sit ups and side bends will not just burn fat off your abdominals. The human body stores fat in certain areas in an order, quite a lot of people happen to store their fat on their thighs first, for others it’s the abdominal region. When attempting to burn fat the same principle applies – your body will burn fat (as you consume less calories then you burn) from certain areas of your body in order – as everyone has a different genetic makeup. Targeted exercising will never affect where fat is lost first, the key to consistent fat loss is a combination of nutrition, cardio and weighted compound lifts. Myth: Lifting Weights Will Make You Big ‘N’ Bulky Truth: It is extremely difficult to pack on a large amount of lean muscle mass as a female, those women bodybuilders you’ve seen on TV are pumped full of testosterone and a cocktail of other supplements to look this way, not to mention they are in a calorie surplus (intentionally consuming more calories than their body requires). A normal female lifting weights will get stronger muscles, but they won’t necessarily get bigger. The simplest way to achieve the ‘toned’ look that is so desired is to be in a calorie deficit (eating nutritious food) while lifting weights regularly. This will allow you go burn the fat covering your muscles, while increasing your muscle density and strength in the process.
Myth: Cardio Is The ONLY Way To Lose Weight Truth: This is entirely wrong. Weight loss occurs when you are consuming fewer calories than your body needs to maintain its current condition, a calorie deficit can be achieved via diet alone, or by exercise – both aerobic (cardio) and anaerobic (weighted training). Cardio can simply be used as a tool to burn extra calories you have consumed, but in essence if you didn’t eat those additional calories you would yield the same results as if you did eat them, and then performed cardio. Myth: One Workout Routine Works For Everyone And Anyone Truth: There is no universal training regime or diet that will work wonders for everyone. Each individual has a different genetic makeup and therefore it is a matter of trial and error. When starting a new diet or workout regime I recommend following this for at least 1 month, during this time record your results and then reassess, any shorter time period and you will not be able to accurately assess your results.
Myth: Men And Women Need To Do Different Exercises Truth: Men and women do not need to train differently, however you will still find to this day most personal trainers will put women through a light dumbbell circuit and spend a large portion of their training time focusing on cardio, meanwhile a man will be told to focus more specifically on compound exercises such as the bench press, pull ups, squat and deadlift. In order to achieve a toned, lean physique as a female it is highly recommend you perform these major compound exercises. As stated earlier you will not instantly gain muscle as you are led to believe. Levels of estrogen, testosterone, genetic makeup and calorie consumption play the main role in muscle mass, not the actual weightlifting itself. Myth: Eating ‘Bad’ Foods Will Make You Fat Truth: False, there is no such thing as a ‘fattening’ food. Weight gain is achieved via the consumption of excess calories, it does not matter what source these calories from – if you consume 300 calories more than your body needs to maintain its current state you will gain weight, your body cannot tell whether these 300 calories came from an apple or a chocolate bar therefore it is irrelevant.
Myth: Lifting Weights Magically Makes Fat Turn To Muscle Truth: False, muscle and fat are 2 completely different substances – it’s like comparing apples and oranges. Muscle cannot turn to fat and fat cannot turn to muscle. If an individual stops lifting weights their bodyweight may stay the same while their percentages of muscle and fat change (decrease in muscle mass as it is not being utilised which is required to maintain, and an increase in body fat as due to a decrease in muscle the body is no longer as efficient at burning calories). Myth: High Reps Are The Key To ‘Toning’ Your Muscles Truth: False, high repetitions increase the endurance of the muscle, while lower repetitions focus more on increasing the strength of the muscle. Both of these can be used to add lean muscle mass and burn calories in order to tone, this is achieved by reaching temporary failure (fatigue) on each of your sets if you are aiming to achieve this in a smaller number of repetitions you will require heavier weight, if you intend to do high repetitions you will use a slightly lighter weight.
Myth: Longer Workouts Product Greater Results Truth: A solid workout should last between 45 minutes and an hour. If a normal workout for you greatly exceeds this timeframe, you need to step back and take a look at how you’re spending your time in the gym – more often than not, those individuals that brag about spending hours at the gym spend half of their time gossiping and catching up with fellow gym-goers and therefore have rest periods that are simply too long between their sets. A shorter, more intense workout is not only more efficient time wise, but will also net you better results. The key is to exhaust the muscle via hypertrophy, so allowing along amount of time for your muscles to recover between sets is counterproductive (unless you are specifically training for strength). Myth: You Should Lift As Heavy As Physically Possible Truth: When lifting, most beginners tend to pick up the heaviest weight they can possibly lift and struggle to pump out several bad repetitions expecting to see results. It is imperative that good form (technique) comes before weight; you should be selecting the heaviest weight that you can lift with correct form for the prescribed number of repetitions. Trying to use weights that are too heavy with bad form is a recipe for disaster – you are at a high risk of injuring yourself, which will ensure you are out of the gym for an extended period of time. On top of that risk, if the weight is too heavy for your muscles you will end up using momentum to help – swinging or bouncing the weight on each repetition. When you begin to ‘cheat’ on repetitions by swinging or bouncing the weight, the tension is taken completely off the muscle, therefore, the muscle isn’t stimulated. No stimulation = no growth.
Myth: Sit-Ups Are The #1 Key To Shredded Abs Truth: Fat cannot be spot reduced. Everybody has a set of abdominal muscles – whether they are defined or not comes entirely down to your body fat level. The abdominal region will begin to become visible for males at around the 10% body fat mark. In order to have a completely ripped abdominal region with oblique and serratus definition you will need to have a single digit body fat reading. Training your abdominals will increase your overall core strength and will deepen the cuts between your abdominal muscles, BUT you will not get abs by doing sit ups or any other ab exercise – this is completely body fat related. Myth: Your Diet Should Contain Little To No Fat Truth: Dietary fat is essential to our bodies. Fats are linked to testosterone production and brain function as well. In fact, individuals that consume a larger amount of fat are less likely to develop depression. Fats are also known to regulate hormone levels as well as blood glucose and insulin responses. If you are struggling to gain weight, fats can play a major role in your diet as a gram of fat is comprised of nine calories (as opposed to the standard four calories found in both protein and carbohydrates). Fat can be used effectively to increase your overall caloric intake with ease. Instead of adding two cups of broccoli to your diet, throw in a tablespoon of organic peanut butter instead!
Myth: Rest Days Are For Suckers Truth: Rest days are for winners. If you’re smashing a WOD every single day, or multiple times a day in the case of the elite and addicted athletes! You’re not going to be allowing yourself time to sufficiently recover. Insufficient recovery leads to a number of different things, none of them being good! Decreased performance, mood swings, plateaus and sudden stalls in progress and increased susceptibility to injuries and strains. Ensure you are taking rest days as necessary along with performing active recovery on training days (such as contrast showers, foam rolling etc.)
The Keys To Progress Focus On Lifting Heavy! As mentioned in the above myths section you will not get bulky from lifting heavy, instead you will burn more calories and promote lean muscle strength gains. Perform Compound Movements (Forget Isolation) Instead of focusing on isolation exercises like tricep extensions and bicep curls for your arms perform major compound lifts such as squats, deadlifts and bench press. Each of these exercises targets a whole variety of muscle groups and will completely transform your physique. As you exert a lot more energy when performing these exercises you will also burn a substantial amount of additional calories. Lift In A Variety Of Rep Ranges Don’t limit yourself to a certain repetition range, mix it up from time to time and exercise to exercise, for example: 5 – 8, heavy weight 8 – 12, medium weight 15 – 20, light weight Variety Is The Spice Of Your WODs Over time our body adapts and finds a more efficient way to perform the exercises you routinely perform. It’s essential to mix up your workouts from time to time, this can be achieved by changing your number of sets and rep ranges, changing the order of your exercises or by switching in and out new exercises. Supplement As Necessary (But Don’t Go Overboard!) Don’t be afraid to supplement as necessary – multivitamins, whey protein and branch chain amino acids can be very beneficial and aid with breaking plateaus and increasing your endurance/recovery time.
Eat Adequate Calories (Based Upon Your Goals!) Do not starve yourself of nutrients or calories; eat a balanced diet of clean foods. Please refer to the ‘Nutrition’ chapter further in this book for greater detail. Understand & Implement Recovery Techniques After 5 day of training have at least 1 full rest day. I used to dismiss rest days, going from Monday to Friday with my 5 day split workout, then immediately restarting the cycle again on Saturday. Ensure you’re getting at least 1 rest day at the end of your cycle. Unable to train on the weekends? Take 2 rest days at the end of the week. Want to train on Sunday? Have 1 rest day mid-week and 1 rest day on the weekend.
Why The Assault Bike? The Big Benefits Of Air Bike Training Revealed…
Improves Aerobic Capacity They don’t call the air bike ‘satan’s tricycle’ and the ‘misery machine’ for nothing, the air bike will have you huffing and puffing like there’s no tomorrow. As the air bike does not have resistance settings like a rower, treadmill or spin bike there’s no way to beat the air bike… the harder you pedal the more resistance you’ll generate. The air bike will always win but your cardio capacity will vastly improve by regularly going to war with your assault air bike! This makes the bike a fantastic tool for boxers, runners and athletes of many different disciplines. Excellent For Athletes Recovering From An Injury The air bike promotes blood flow and movement of all limbs – when not pedalling flat out the air bike is excellent as a recovery tool or warm up. Builds Mental Toughness Pushing through the pain and into unchartered territory will become common practise for you each and every air bike workout. Endurance is 90% mental, your body WILL be able to complete those last few calories on the bike, your body WILL be able to crank the speed up that bit higher for the last 30 seconds on the bike… It’s only your mind that’ll tell you no. When we stop it’s because we’re mentally weak, our mind convinces us its time to take it easy, it’s time to slow down. As you build mental toughness you’ll start to ignore this voice – you’ll start building mental toughness which translate to improved performance and discipline both inside and outside of the gym.
No Gimmicks There’s no stupid technique, protocols or fads when it comes to the air bike. The air bike is an old school piece of training equipment that’s tough and has stood the test of time because it gets results. Provides A Great Baseline Cardio Workout Distance, speed, time, calories – there’s a huge number of different programming options and metrics that can be used when determining your air bike workout. 20 calories, 2000m, 20 seconds… many metrics, many workout options, many means of tracking progress. Low Impact (Easy On The Joints!) Unlike the treadmill there’s no impact whatsoever with the air bike! This makes the air bike fantastic for those that encounter issues with joint pain, strains and soreness. Sprinting up and down stairs or performing copious amounts of box jumps and jump rope every week will take its toll on your joints and ligaments due to the pressure and impact they’re subject to. The air bike does not put your body through any of this – you’re seated and driving through your arms and legs to move the air bike, no impact whatsoever making it a sustainable form of cardio that won’t subject you to the long list of issues associated with high volume high impact cardio options. Compact Can’t get to the gym? No worries – if you’ve got an air bike you can perform a workout anywhere! In the comfort of your own home, in a carpark… where ever.
Technique Is Easy To Grasp The air bike and rowing are often compared, don’t get me wrong – the C2 rower is a killer conditioning tool for endurance, toughness and cardio capacity but there’s one factor most don’t consider when comparing these two pieces of cardio equipment. That’s technique. It takes a lot of time, practise and coaching to dial in the correct rowing form. In the process lower back strains, shoulder injuries and decreased moral are all too common when attempting to grasp the technique of the rower. The air bike does not have that level of complexity associated with it when it comes to technique. It’s merely a matter of adjusting the seat, seating your desired workout on the LCD and pedalling your ass off!
Interpreting Cross Training Workouts Unlike a normal workout regime, in which you determine in advance the exercises and sets you are going to be doing in advance this hybrid form of training takes an entirely different approach and uses the ‘WOD’ system, which is an acronym for Workout of the Day. Various gyms and websites throughout the world issue their own WOD on a daily basis. The majority of athletes follow a 3/1 training schedule. This means you will partake in 3 consecutive workout days, followed by 1 rest day. This however, is only a recommendation – many advanced athletes choose to do 5/2 and a variety of other schedules to suit their end state goals and recovery time. Now let’s take a look at a WOD and analyse it.
WED 161126 Six rounds for time of: 20 cals air bike 125lb thruster, 12 reps Analysis: Wednesday 161126 – this workout was published on Wednesday, the 26th of November 2016. Six rounds for time of: 20 calories on the air bike, 125 pound thruster for 12 reps – this WOD consists of 2 exercises, a 20 calorie cycle and a 125b thruster, you are to complete 6 rounds of these exercises in the fastest time possible (use a timer to record so you can compare your score to others). The complete workout would look like this: Warm up (don’t forget to stretch and warm up before beginning, it is crucial to avoid injury)
