If
you’re reading this right now, chances are good that you’ve come to the
decision that you want to make some positive changes to your body, but aren’t
quite sure where to start. The information I have provided is for busy executives but the concept applies to those who are just starting out on this journey of strength training as well.
We all lead an incredibly busy lifestyle and finding the time of day to get workouts
in is something that does prove to be great concern.
Perhaps
in the past you’ve brushed off thoughts of getting started on our very own
workout program for this precise reason – you wanted to create change, but you
were just too busy to make it happen. Heck, you might have been too busy to
even find a workout plan to follow.
But
this time you’re detrained. You know all the main benefits to performing
strength training on a regular basis and let’s face it, you aren’t getting
younger. Now is the time to start making
positive changes in your life so that you can lead your best life possible.
And
the great news is that the resources is here to help. We are going to prove to you
that keeping in great shape does not have to take hours and hours each week.
In
fact, in just 3, 30 minute sessions, you could easily make significant
progress, boost your strength levels, increase your metabolic rate so that you
can burn fat at top speeds, and move on step closer to obtaining your dream
body.
Remember,
it’s never ‘too late’ to make positive changes.
Even if you’re currently 50+ years old, you can still see remarkable progress and create your very own
transformation.
If
you work as a busy executive, leading the 9-5 lifestyle, your day is full. By
the time you finish up at work, deal with all the meetings you have to prepare
for, and fight traffic to get home, it could easily make for a 10 hour day –
sometime even longer if you happen to be working late.
Further,
if you’re an executive who’s always on the road traveling, then you have a
whole other set of elements to contend with as keeping up a ‘regular gym
workout’ at your home gym would be a futile effort at best. You’re constantly on the road so regularity
is just not a part of your vocabulary.
Our mission here is simple.
We’re
going to guide you through everything that you need to know to put together a
proper strength training workout program that is going to work with your busy lifestyle.
Each
portion of the program is going to be based around the fact that every single
minute you spend doing your workouts must count because for you, time is money.
You don’t have a minute to spare and you definitely do not want to be putting
in time at the gym or at home doing workouts that aren’t going to be paying
off.
In
this guide, we’re going to first talk about why you should strength train in
the first place. What makes this form of
exercise so powerful? We’ll give you the
details.
Next,
we’ll go over the differences between strength training versus bodybuilding.
While they are two very similar types of activities, there are definitely some
notable differences that you do need to know.
From
there, we’ll go over the anatomy of the body.
It’s important that you understand the different muscle groups so that
you can easily see which each exercise is going to be targeting.
After
that’s finished, then we’ll go over the precise requirements to put together a
good strength training program. We’ll
talk about what the best exercises to perform are, how often you should be
doing your workouts, what level of weight you should be using, as well as the
importance of good form. We’ll also
outline the importance of set and rep selection along with your periods
between. All of these factors go into determining how you should be structuring
your workout to reach the goals that you have set.
Once
you have a firm basis of understanding of that, then we’ll proceed forward and
talk about how you can create a strength training program that’s incredibly
time effective. This is going to be an
important chapter for you to read especially due to the fact that you do lead
such a hectic lifestyle.
Moving
along, we’ll go into some of the most common strength training mistakes that
people make as they progress through their program so you know precisely what
you shouldn’t be doing if you want to get the results you’re hoping for.
At
times, it can be just one small mistake in programming or how you’re going
about the workout that costs you big-time as far as your results are concerned.
Once
we’ve finished discussing those points then we’ll provide you with a gym
workout that you can be doing. This will be your complete guide to get you
kick-started on your program and off to the path of success.
After
that, we’ll list home workout options to consider for those of you who do want
to workout in the comfort of your own home. If there are no gyms in your area,
you simply prefer a more private environment, or you simply don’t have time to
drive to the gym and want to workout first thing in the morning, home workouts
can be a perfect solution.
After
that, we’ll provide you with a home or hotel workout plan to utilize. For those who travel, this will be an
important piece of the puzzle.
From
there, we’ll be discussing what you can do to advance your fitness level after
you’ve formed a good foundational level of strength by completing your programs
for a month or two.
Then
to finish off, we’ll be going over what you need to know about
overtraining to ensure this doesn’t take you out of the game, along with some
important nutritional tips to keep in mind so that you can maximize your
success. Here is the summary:

Conclusion
Once
you’ve read through all of this content, you should feel 100% fully ready to
get started and dive into your very own workout program, finally seeing the
results that you’re after.
When
it comes to making a body transformation and getting a lean, fit, and defined
figure, it really only takes three FOUR key components. (secret sauce if you like)
- An overloading stimulus – this is what causes the body to break down slightly, after which it’ll build itself back up stronger than it was before
- Rest – rest is critical because without rest, you won’t be giving the body time to grow back stronger than it was before
- Proper nutrition – what you eat provides the building blocks of what you’ll build new muscle tissue out of, so this is a critical component. You can spend hours in the gym, have the best workout plan but if your meals comprise of fries and hamburgers, it is not going to work. There is a time for cheat meal but we shall go into that next time.
- Consistency - this is the most overlooked component of getting your desired body. Too many people gave after a few sessions or worse still, they keep procrastinating till they cultivate a habit of missing workouts.
Get
these four items in place and you can rest assured that you are on track to
success.
So
now that you know what we’re going to cover and what you must be doing to
realize physique improvements, let’s move forward and begin our discussing with
why strength training is the most powerful form of exercise out there.
