High Rep Weight Training Workout For Weight Loss

7/14/2019

1 Comment

 
Here is a fantastic weight training workout that works really well for weight loss and toning.

It is comprised of 10 different exercises arranged into 5 pairs.

Each exercise is performed for 2 sets each and the repetitions sit at around 15-20 for each exercise.

This means that you will perform roughly 300-400 repetitions during the session.

This ensures a high energy output and lots of calories burned but more importantly, because you are lifting weights, you will not lose any muscle.

This workout can be performed 1-3 times per week on non-consecutive days to give your muscles a rest.

See the video below for a demonstration of all the exercises.

How to perform this workout.

The Warm-Up:
  • Perform the first 4-5 exercises in the routine for one set of 10 repetitions each.
  • Use 50% of the weight you would use during the actual workout as a warm up weight.
  • For example. If you were going to do the chest press with 20kg dumbbells during the actual workout, you would warm up with one set of ten repetitions with 10kg dumbbells.

The Workout: (See the video below).
  • Perform the exercises in pairs. Rest 10 seconds between the exercises but rest 60-90 seconds between each set.
  • Perform the 10 exercises for a full body weight training workout.

The Cooldown:
  • Cool down with some stretching or light cardio.

How to progress the workout.

It is important to either increase the weight used or the number of reps each week in order to make the body change and adapt and also lose weight.

Keeping the same reps or weight every week will not help you in the long run.

Failing to make the 20 reps in some sets is a good thing.

​Enjoy the workout and let me know how you go.
