Give your fat loss efforts a serious boost, plus improve cardiovascular fitness andtarget weak points without having to endure another long-winded weight-training and cardio session. Michael Wittig, ISSA Certified Personal Trainer and Kaged Muscle Athlete, tells you how.
High-intensity interval training (HIIT)
“High-intensity intervals not only save on time, but studies show it also burns more fat than steady-state cardio. Plus, you continue to burn calories even after the workout is over. Combining cardio work with machine movements such as wide-grip pulldowns allows me to maximize my fat-loss efforts while giving a little extra attention to weak points (back) outside of my regular weight-training sessions.”

“I always do my cardio after weights or at another time in the day. If you’re lacking energy and strength because you did cardio before weights, you’re not going to be very effective at building muscle. And the more muscle you have, the more calories you’ll burn even at rest. To help keep my energy levels high during training sessions, I sip on In-Kaged with an added scoop of citrulline throughout the workout.”
