How fast do you want to see results? Yesterday right?

With all the advances in technology and communication, we have become a nation of people who cannot have things given to us fast enough. When we want something, we want it now, in seconds, and nobody wants to wait.

The same goes for your changing your body, and toning and sculpting your arms.

Most people pick up an exercise program and, if they don’t see results in a week’s time or less, they give up and move on to the next thing.

After all, in the fitness industry, the typical amount of time that trainers say you will see results is about 8 weeks. The problem with that, is it’s hard to stay motivated for 8 weeks while you hope that you are doing the right thing; especially when it comes to something like saggy and flabby arms.

What if you only have a few weeks before you need to wear a sleeveless dress?

What if you have a formal function coming up, and you want to look you absolute best?

What if you start a program, and then realize as the days close in on the event that you haven’t made an ounce of progress because you’ve been following the wrong program?

Sounds like a scary situation right?

So is it possible to see results sooner? And I mean really soon, like a matter of a few days, soon?

The answer is a resounding YES!

In fact, many professional bodybuilders and fitness models know this very secret.

If you go back-stage at any bodybuilding competition, you will see tanned and oiled up bodies everywhere, frantically exercising with fitness bands, dumbbells, and doing pushups, chinups and other various exercises.

This is called ‘pumping up’ and it is essential for success on any stage where you need to look your best.

Models (both male and female) are known for doing this before a photo shoot as well.

This type of ‘pumping up’ moves water from under the skin (which gives a flabby and soft appearance) and moves it into the muscles giving you a toned and defined look. Not bad for results in less than 10 minutes hey?

Now don’t get confused with “bulking up”, because this won’t make you have huge bulging muscles. However, it will temporarily firm and tone the muscles you do have; giving you a sleek, sexy appearance.

What this means for YOU, is that the next time you have a hot date, want to look extra great in that swimsuit before you step on the beach, or even want to get a few extra looks on the street when you step out; you can do a quick set of body weight exercises (like crunches, pushups, and squats) and look better INSTANTLY.

I recommend getting a fitness band and doing three to four sets of tricep pushdowns with only 15 seconds rest between sets. Keep the reps high (in the 15-20 rep range) and make sure to squeeze the muscle hard at the contraction point of each repetition.

This will give you great results that are actually visible, and it will only take you a few minutes before you head out the door.

Now how is that for fast results?

The super-hot Melissa demonstrates handstand pushups.  If you can do these without bashing your noggin in, then you are most coordinated.  How many women do you know, that can do these handstand pushups?  Nice work, Melissa.

I am going to begin featuring specific exercises on a more consistent basis. Today I'm going to talk about a really versatile exercise called Hanging Power Cleans. Some people call them hanging clean, cleans from dead hang, etc. You can use this lift to burn fat at the end of a workout, increase athletic ability, or gain incredible definition in your, back shoulders, and arms.

[Here is a good example of a fit woman without excessive muscle. It is good to strike a balance between muscle and aesthetics. A routine based around HIIT, Circuits, and Low Volume Resistance Training…creates this type of look. Obviously diet plays a crucial role as well.]

300 Workout for Women

Author: RSweet

Women need to strength train for fat loss. That’s surprising. And women can also train hard. That’s surprising to a lot of folks as well. Here are some cool workouts for women’s weight loss.

Now just because the 300 workout was built for a guy’s movie doesn’t mean we can’t modify a workout originally made to chisel male Greek Statue bodies into a workout that will turn the average gal into a fitness Goddess.

The original 300 workout is brutal, and there are two ways we can modify it. First, by using the same exercises and decreasing the reps. And second, by keeping the reps but reducing the intensity of the exercises.

Let’s do option A first, doing a workout with mostly the same exercises but fewer reps. So this becomes a 125 rep workout. Its tough, and is really for advanced female fitness only. A more beginner exercise is below.

a) Pullups – 5 reps (if you can’t do real pullups, use the assisted pullup machine or even pulldowns)

b) Deadlifts with 25lbs – 30 reps (in the original workouts, they used 135 pounds. We’ll decrease the weight and use the EZ curl bar instead. Alternatively, you can do dumbbell squats with 15 pounds per hand).

c) Pushups – 20 reps (do a combination of regular and kneeling if necessary)

d) 12-inch Box jumps – 25 reps

e) Floor wipers – 20 reps (Use the EZ Curl Bar again, or a broomstick)

f) 1-arm Clean n Press with 10lbs Kettlebell – 20 reps total, not per arm

g) Pullups – 5 reps (same as above)

A woman with a moderate fitness level might try this 100 repetition workout (remember – minimize the rest between sets):

5 bodyweight rows

15 bodyweight squats

5 pushups

50 jumping jacks

10 mountain climbers

10 lunges

5 bodyweight rows

Those are some challenging workouts. Work with a trainer to come up with other ideas.

Just do this workout once as a test. You might try it every couple of months or so as a comparison, but don’t train like this everyday.

And as always, train safe. If you aren’t sure about the technique, your form, or don’t feel comfortable with the workout, skip it!
