Tornadoes, snakes and beatdowns are descriptions of some of the rope training we do. Ropes are a part of the cardio strength training I do with my clients. Besides getting your heart rate up in a hurry, its a “fun” way to do your workout.
Monday is cardio day at the studio and I have them move from one exercise to the next with little rest in between. This form of interval workout trains your cardio and muscular systems at the same time for maximum efficiency.
Total body workouts are a great way to build a lean, athletic physique in sessions lasting 40 minutes. What’s that old Army commercial about getting more done before 7a.m.? Same type of principle – we get more work done in less time.
Studies show that this type of training can elevate your metabolism for 24 hours or more after the workout. Work harder and work smarter if you’re not getting the results you want.
These joint friendly workouts are also done by my clients in their 50’s – all but the agility ladder, though some can do this as well.
Get moving!

I really can’t understand certain points of this article, but I guess I only need to learn a bit more regarding this, because it certainly seems interesting and kind of though-proviking! By the way, how did you first get started with this?
This type of training combines aspects of cardio and strength training into a single session instead of doing them separately, which requires more time. Most people don’t exercise for two reasons – lack of time and boredom. This type of training takes only about 40 minutes and is anything but boring!
My clients get results in minimal time, leaving them more time to spend with friends and family. I have links to many other trainers throughout my site that I have borrowed these ideas from.
