    Cardio intervals

    Two sessions a week is what moves visceral fat fastest. Alternate them: treadmill one day, rower the next. Keep them off your Mission 28 days.

    Rounds per session
    5
    weeks 1-2

    Weeks 1-2 do 5 rounds. Weeks 3-4 do 6. After that raise the speed or the incline instead of adding rounds.

    Session A

    Treadmill

    • 1
      Warm-up
      Walk 3.0-3.5 mph, 1% incline
      5 min
    • 2
      Push
      Run 6.0-7.0 mph, or walk 3.5 mph at 12-15% incline
      60 sec
    • 3
      Recover
      Walk 3.0 mph, no incline
      90 sec
    • 4
      Cool down
      Easy walk
      4 min

    Steep incline walking hits your heart almost as hard as running with far less punishment on the knees. Use it if you have not run in years.

    Session B

    Rower

    • 1
      Warm-up
      Easy, 18-20 strokes per min, damper 3-5
      5 min
    • 2
      Push
      250 m hard, 26-28 strokes per min
      60 sec
    • 3
      Recover
      Easy paddle, stay on the machine
      90 sec
    • 4
      Cool down
      Easy paddle
      4 min

    Drive with the legs, not the back. Pulling: legs, hips, arms. Returning: arms, hips, legs. Damper 3 to 5, never 10.

    How hard is hard

    Forget the heart rate monitor. During the push you should not be able to say more than three or four words in a row. During recovery you should be able to talk.

    Test day

    Max push-ups

    One set. No stopping. Go to failure. Good form: chest to the floor, body straight.
