Two Week Cardio Overload

So for the past four weeks I have been doing a cookie cutter, six week “beach body” workout plan. I checked out in week three and labored through week four halfheartedly. This is what prompted me to start this blog. With two weeks I am going to do my “patent pending” two week cardio overload. (To see the program skip down a bit) This program will help me lose fat and get lean in two weeks before I go to Costa Rica on spring break. I regressed a bit from taking a week and a half off but cardio will help those gains resurface. For my diet I will use intermittent fasting, my favorite diet. To max out my gains I will not snack and only eat two meals a day. IMPORTANT: If you try this make sure to eat bigger meals our you will get weak. I am also toying with adding my weighted vest (20lbs) into the workouts for intensity. Ill check back in next week and let you know how it is going. Ill put my plan below

The Plan

• Monday/Wednesday/Friday
  • AM: Fasted Cardio – 60% for 20-25 mins
  • PM: HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) – 20 sec full sprint; 40 sec active recovery for 30 mins
• Tuesday/Thursday
  • PM: Steady State Cardio – 75% for 60 mins
• Saturday
  • High Intensity Active Training for 60 mins
    • For example, I will run basketball drills for an hour
