Introduction:

Your Cardio Conditioning Phase 1 is very important.  It prepares your body for resistance training that will burn fast.

The first step is to condition your cardiovascular system for weight training.  There will be new pressures on your heart and lungs, and the associated blood vessels related to your blood pressure.  It is vital that you take small manageable steps to allow your cardiovascular system to adapt to the new healthy pressures you will be exerting on it.

In your Cardio Conditioning Phase 1 you will be working with resistance set at around 65% of your maximum.  This will allow you to carry out several repetitions at a manageable effort.

Importantly you will develop increased strength in your joints, your body tissues, cartilage, tendons and bones.  It is crucial that you take the time to develop your strength in these areas so that you can handle more intense specific fat burning exercises later.  It helps prevent injury and also helps you to manage correct form.

You will be building strength in your heart and lungs and in the blood vessels to supply the increase in oxygen needed to fuel your muscles.  It is a beautiful system that needs to be built up over time.

Your Cardio Conditioning Phase 1 consists of 3 weekly workouts.  Your full body is trained in each session.

In the Cardio Conditioning Phase you will use lots of compound exercises that employ more than one joint.  That will enable you to work and condition more of your body in each session.

You will discover that your Cardio Conditioning Phase 1 is as EASY as 1, 2, 3…

1. Warm –UP (10 min)…  Each workout begins with a 10 minute warm-up on the bike, stepper, treadmill, rower or jog, bike ride outside.  Try to do the rower once a week, so you condition and strengthen the upper body too,
2. Full body resistance training (20 – 30 min).  Rest 20 – 30 seconds between sets,
3. Cool – down (10 min):  Finish each session with a 5 minute light cool down on the bike, stepper or treadmill, followed by a 5 minute full body stretch.  I usually opt for the bike after a work out, it is nice to just sit and relax a while!
