If you're following a basic fat loss program, or losing weight is your goal in general then chances are there's some type of cardio-training included in the program. Whether it's intervals or steady-state cardio, after a while things become mundane, boring and you could just want to skip it all together.
Before you lose more motivation than fat, we've asked owner of TRyM Fitness and HUMANFITPROJECT correspondent, Tim McComsey C.S.C.S., RD. to provide and demonstrate a great workout to replace those boring cardio sessions. It's a 5-move, 7-rep, "down-the-ladder" giant set that will boost your strength, endurance and torch fat.
