DON'T JUST LOOK BULKED, LOOK ATHLETIC!
Key thing: do your cardio AFTER weights, to deplete glycogen in muscles, so body has to burn fat for energy. Reach 80% of your max heart rate / 15 minutes of cardio daily or 30 mins. 3x/wk.
Eat unlimited vegetables or low glycemic fruit when you're really hungry, then lots of water. Limit alcohol. I only drink once or twice a month, partly because I don't like it that much, but also because it's a purer form of carb than sugar is. A lot of people never reach their goal of looking cut / ripped because of this one little item, and because they refuse to do cardio.
It is extremely varied, to keep interest and keep up "muscle confusion." Two days I do mostly cardio only and just light weights/high reps. My workouts are so varied, I don't think I can list it all here, but on the light days I use a lot of cable and just work muscle groups that seem slack or aren't as crucial to my goals, such as traps, serratus, gluts.
On heavy days, I like to work arms and shoulders together one day, chest and back another. The idea is either to work adjoining muscles together or antagonistic ones (if you feel need to create more balance). Ask for details. |
