Great Tabata Workout:
Daniel Craig’s James Bond
AS DEVISED BY SIMON WATERSON
PHILOSOPHY
Training hard, concentration & consistency is the key to any programme this is not for the faint hearted I don’t beleave in beating around the bush so straight in hard & shocking the body into a reaction ,
You have to truly beleave that a programme does work so through yourself into this programme 100% please I don’t do things bye half this is what you asked for so don’t waste your money or my time.
Training at this level is intense & fast acting but remember how the body work as much as you train hard you also need to know that you have to rest , refuel & therefore rebuild so sleep, food,rest,& the right balance is imperative
OUTLINE WHAT THE TRAINING WILL DO.
The Training programme is an all over body workout comprising of large compound exercises that will raise the heart rate but add lean muscle tissue it can be used at any level beginner to pro athlete but most importantly it will complement your own workout plan & sport , strength , stamina & cardio capacity will improve , posture , sleep, digestion will become better training easier. Etc etc .
RECORDING YOUR RESULTS,
Buy please a little black workout book to record your results it’s the best way to keep your consistency & training on track & keep those strength & stamina gains going up,
I also think investing in a good heart rate monitor is a great way mate to monitor your recovery rate HR Should return to normal (i.e. pre workout heart rate ) within around 3-5 mins post workout .
THE PROGRAMME SETS REPS & INTENSITY
4 SETS 1 WARM UP/FORM SET +3 REAL SETS.
15 REPS FOR EACH SET IN PERFECT FORM.
GOING FROM ONE EXERCISE TO THE NEXT IN THE MINIMUM TIME TO KEEP THE HEART RATE HIGH WILL HELP WITH THE CARDIO CAPACITY SIDE OF THINGS.
6 WEEK PLAN I have devised a week just follow this for 6 weeks bye repeating week 1 exercises but I want you to alternate between reps and weight.
FOR EXAMPLE
WEEK ONE 15 REPS MODERATE WEIGHT IE LAST 2 REPS ARE TOUGH.
WEEK TWO 10 REPS INCREASE THE WEIGHT PLEASE BYE 10%
WEEK THREE 20 REPS BACK TWO WEEK ONE WEIGHT
WEEK FOUR 8 REPS 5% INCREASE ON WEEK TWO
WEEK FIVE 25 REPS AT WEEK ONE WEIGHT
WEEK SIX 6 REPS 5% INCREASE OF WEIGHT FROM WEEK FOUR.
This is why its so important to record your results & monitor your progress .
