Got a great fat-loss style
training technique for you here. This is Lactic Acid Training,
which is extremely beneficial for fat loss.
This is somewhat along the
same lines and the technique can be plugged into this program
or pretty much ANY fat loss program.
Basically, you go back and
forth between high rep sets of two anatagonistic bodyparts.
The purpose of this is to kick out BIG loads of lactic acid,
which in turn results in GH secretion, which is a potent
fat burning hormone (along with muscle-building).
You can read the full story
on this technique here:
No-Rest
Lactic Acid Supersetting - Supercharge
Your Metabolism For Fat Loss!
It's a GREAT kick in the metabolism. You basically go back
and forth between two exercises taking basically NO rest
in between...then you just keep going back and forth between
those two exercises for the prescribed number of sets -
start with 6 sets of each and work your way up to 10 over
a couple of workouts.
On that article page, I used
swiss ball dumbell bench press and dumbells rows for the
example.
On THIS page, I've got Decline
Barbell Bench Press and Close Grip Barbell Bent-Over Rows.
You can most likely use about the same weight on both of
these - I just use the same barbell and go back and forth
between the two exercises for high reps.
Because the exercises and
antagonistic, it allows you to really keep up with nervous
system functioning and actually get more reps than you normally
could. It's an excellent combination and you can use it
with any antagonistic pairing of muscles (e.g. biceps, triceps).
Here's what it looks like
(the video will show it best).
Then directly to:
Then right back to the benching...
This gives you NO opportunity
to fully rest but because you're working antagonistic muscle
groups, they do actually recover fairly well and you'll
be able to crank out a good amount of reps.

I use Lactic Acid Training
in my Metabolic
Surge - Rapid Fat Loss program during the
final few days of the low-carb cycle. This type of
training is most effective for fat loss when it's
done during low-insulin conditions (GH and insulin
don't mix well).
So when you're eating
low carb and your glycogen levels are low, that is
the PERFECT time to do this type of training to maximize
fat burning.
