Can I get a good “cardio” workout with your program?

A resounding yes! Realize that the only way to activate your cardiovascular system is by performing mechanical work with the muscular system. Our workouts provide maximal muscular work. The greater the quality of muscular work, the better the cardiovascular effect. The type of exercise you perform at Absolute Fitness will give you the best cardiovascular conditioning possible. Typical aerobic type activities are of lower intensity, therefore your adaptations to this activity are not well preserved. This explains why these types of activities require more frequent participation.

What is the Best Type of Exercise for Fat Loss?

Exercise in and of itself is not a major player in weight loss. To burn calories, build muscle! A sensible strength-training program produces fat loss and muscle gain, which increases the basal metabolic rate of your body. Therefore, it is not the number of calories that your body burns from exercise; it is the number of calories that your body burns as a result of exercise. Research shows that the best results are produced from the combination of proper strength training with a healthy, moderately-reduced calorie nutritional plan and the total exclusion of steady-state activities.

Can I really achieve optimal training benefits with only 30-60 minutes of exercise a week?

The fitness programs at Absolute Fitness deliver all you need from exercise in a fraction of the conventional time. We have raised the intensity of the exercise to a very high level, thereby making exercising more than your body requires counterproductive and more likely to cause injuries. Have you ever thought about trying to discover how little exercise your body requires for optimal results instead of how much it can withstand? If your exercise intensity is high, the only thing that you will regret is the time you wasted training longer
