Morning Cardio MetCon Circuit
This program is intended to be a nice finisher for a cardio program, or “cardio only” day. It’s more of a pump workout simply focused on keeping the HR up and the caloric burn on! I do this workout after performing my cardio when the body is already warm.
THE FOCUS IN NOT ON HOW HEAVY YOU CAN LIFT!
In fact, this workout is more about moving light to moderate weight through space AS FAST AS YOU CAN!
So we are working in the modality of Power Endurance. By definition, power endurance is about producing as much force as you can, in as little time as possible – and over a long period of time. With this kind of work we can improve neuromuscular efficiency – which is basically the body’s ability to have all of your muscles work in tandem and to do so efficiently in any direction you move.
The rate of force production – or basically how powerful we are, which will have huge effect on our strength workout as well. So this workout serves more than just the purpose of fat loss! Train intelligently and raise the bar.

Outer Quads and Shoulders Power Training
This program is a bit on the short and sweet side, as far as volume is concerned. But the more important thing I want you to focus on is REALLY pushing through with each and every REP. Do not rush through this workout. I want you to lift heavy and challenge yourself.
Our main goal and focus is in POWER AND STRENGTH. So for the exercises where I have you lifting explosively, be sure to really push yourself and try to produce as much FORCE as you can, in as little time as possible. That’s the actual definition of power.

Negative Reps Chest & Triceps Workout 2
This program is all about giving a REAL challenge to the chest and triceps! And to do that we are going to really kick negative reps in high gear.
The “negative” portion of the rep is the eccentric contraction. And in focusing on that part of the motion you force the body to recruit a ton of muscle fibers, and cause even more microtears/damage to those fibers.
And by doing that, once the body repairs, you have tissue that is stronger than before, and brings about hypertrophy and growth.
